I stayed a little over 9 weeks in Anatol's apartment. I love this place. It is exactly as one sees in the pictures. The location is perfect; less than a 5 minute walk to the S1 and multiple bus lines and a few bahn stops away from the center of Berlin. Though it is a mere block from a major street (Haupstrasse) it is incredibly quiet and I really enjoyed the interior plant-filled courtyard. There are enough restaurants in the area that I could have eaten out every night for a month and I still wouldn't have covered them all. There are more than five major grocery stores within a three block radius and a series of small shops and exercise studios. I even joined a pilates studio during my stay! The neighborhood is very safe, even late at night, past midnight. Anatol was very friendly and welcoming. There was a minor issue with the bathroom and Anatol and his stepdad responded immediately. They were both lovely. I plan to come back to Berlin and this is my first choice of places to stay.
