What can we say...Magnus was a super super host but we are only allowed to give up to 5 stars. From time of booking and before checking in, the hosting with tips for great off the beaten tourist path for places to eat, the personal and warm checkin, ease of communication, responsiveness to requests, and the lovely home were all appreciated. His maps and suggestions once you arrive are very helpful. Local restaurants he has recomended were fantastic if you tire of the central Berlin tourist parade.
We are big walkers so from our perspective the location was perfect to get to major attractions like Museum Island, the Berlin Dom, and the Rechstag, but public transport is a little less direct. The parking underground gave us freedom of choice for day trips further out.
Magnus home is a working home so it is well equipped and the penthouse open gardens are a plus along with the views.
For those of you who are sensitive to heat, there is no air conditioning but Magnus provided an electric fan in advance of the hot and fluctuating weather. However the ceiling to floor windows to multiple balconies can be opened for fresh air and allow a breeze to flow through and we had lovely cool mornings and evenings. This was a super stay with a superhost.
