Markus place was a warm haven from the Berlin cold weather. I was there for nearly a week an I felt as comfortable as I'd be in my own home, Markus and his roommates are kind and interesting people, they are always keen on helping, share and talking to you. I learn a lot from Berlin by talking with them, got nice tips to move around the city and felt really at ease visiting a foreign country. The apartment is located next to a sub station which makes it a great point to start any trip, there are two supermarkets nearby and it is somewhat in the middle of the many interesting places Berlin has to explore. I'll recommend staying with Marcus to anyone interested in enjoying the true nature of being a Berliner.
