Alex was a fabulous host.
Very responsive and useful emails on places to eat etc. in the local area. We loved the location, near a kids playground and loads of trendy eating places. Had fabulous breakfast 100m from the apartment - pancakes all round. It was also lovely to arrive to a fruit bowl and a couple of beers in the fridge - thanks Alex.
Unfortunately we were in Berlin in the hottest week of the year and being on a relatively busy road, we had to shut the windows at night (the blackout blinds were fab) but it did mean it was incredibly hot, even with fans, so we didn't sleep very well. Not sure Alex can do much about that ... but take light PJ's! The only other point is that the bedroom set up for young kids (the three bed room is down the end of a long corridor so the youngsters weren't keen to stay there) but I can see this is a fab house for older children/adult groups.
Having two bathrooms was great, they were lovely and clean and the one was extremely spacious which was great.
We'd highly recommend ...
