Edward was very helpful while we were staying in his home. He lives next door which is convenient and speaks English which is also very helpful. We found the home super clean and beds comfortable. We had plenty of space to spread out and to put all our stuff. We enjoyed our time in Berlin. Make sure to validate your tickets before going on the U or S. We found this out the hard way. They are quick to hand out 40 euro fines even if you have a ticket. The U and S line are .5 or .7 miles from this home. The bus line is even closer than that. We would we stay here again!
