We came to Berlin to join the Berlin Marathon event. Although it's not located in the city centre, it's easy to get around as the tram and train station were only 3 mins walk and it only took us around 15 mins to get to the city centre.
The area is quiet even though it's by the roadside. The Bavarian restaurant nearby (and recommended by Alan) was lovely - great food & ambience.
Overall, it's an enjoyable stay.
Thank you Alan for the hospitality.
