Ben's apartment is well located at a few minutes by foot from the U-Bahn and the S-Bahn, a huge supermarket and a range of bars and restaurants. The street is quiet and cozy. The apartment was extremely clean, perfectly equipped for cooking, washing your clothes and so on. It felt like a home! I did get a little trouble with a noisy radiator in the room, but Ben was quick to act on it and although the problem did come back, he made me feel like he cared to help and did everything in his power. I suggest you bring ear plugs if you're sensitive to noise, as the sleeping room is next to the entrance and people slam the house door in the morning. I stayed 10 nights and it felt great to be there, I could work and chill. Would go back.
