The apartment is very cozy and located w/in 5 minutes of Bornholmer Str. Station w/ good S connections. Gesundbrunnen is a bit further, but also has good connections. The apartment is small and doesn't have an oven or dishwasher, so it isn't for those who love to cook, but it's a wonderful place to stay! The balcony looks out over the courtyard, and the area feels very safe! LIDL and REWE are close by and there are lovely restaurants near the apartment.
