Our stay was just perfect. The apartment is spacious, clean and comfortable and has you need. Fried was a truly accommodating host who made us feel at home in his apartment. The location couldn't be better -- a quiet street just a few blocks from bustling neighborhoods full of cafes, bakeries, and the train stop. There are two grocery stores within walking distance and several delicious breakfast places! Across the street there is a delicious Italian restaurant, and a few blocks away you can try a very popular Berlin pizza spot. Fried left us a list of area restaurants and detailed instructions on how to use everything in the apartment. The flat has a washer and dryer, plus a dishwasher, which was very useful for our 10 day stay. The TV is projecter-style with great surround sound, and we were able to watch films using Netflix and Amazon at night.
The area surrounding the apartment is extremely safe. In fact, every area we walked to was safe, and we covered so many miles of Berlin on foot.
I can't recommend this airbnb enough! We definitely would do it all over again. Thank you Fried and family for everything!
