I had a great time at Julia’s place—stayed there for a month. The room in her apartment is a fair size, with a great view into the Innenhof/courtyard of the building. The bed was comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped for most kinds of cooking. The area is great—close to several U-Bahn stations, serviced by a reliable bus line, and very close to a lively nightlife scene. None of the noise gets in through the courtyard though, so don’t worry about that. Julia was very communicative and reached me within minutes to help me out whenever something came up. Great place and great host for great price.
