The apartment is nice and minimally decorated, with all the necessities in the bathroom and kitchen (note: stovetop, but no oven).
The location was perfect for our visit, as it is right between family in Weissensee and the eateries of Prenzlauer Berg. It is also very well connected by public transport. If you happen to be travelling with young children, there is a fantastic playground only one block away.

We didn't meet Alexander in person – Stefano took care of us – but Alex was readily available by email.

The only issue we encountered during our mid- to late-September visit was that the apartment became cold and damp due to wet Autumn conditions, and the heat for the entire building had not been turned on yet. Thankfully, Alexander has extra blankets and provided an electric space heater on very short notice!

Also, the apartment is only a few steps above ground level, perfect for people with suitcases.
