Jose was friendly and welcoming. His apartment is clean and modern and has great views of Berlin and is right around the corner to Checkpoint Charlie. Just about all other sights are within walking distance too. 2 minutes from supermarket (Lidl), bakery, kebab store and an underground station, and a great park with football and basketball courts just outside. The apartment was so nice, large and with everything you could need including full kitchen equipment, washing machine and even DVDs and books for your use, and good wifi too. Jose gave us great directions to get there which were easy to follow and some information about local attractions and other things happening in the city. Next time we are in Berlin we will definitely stay here again!
