We recently returned from a week-long stay at Alex's loft in Kreuzberg. My Dad, a long-time loft-dweller, was immediately drawn to the photos depicting Alex's space and the description of the neighborhood. Thus, our family trip "landed" in Berlin.
The photos accurately reflect the loft's space and the neighborhood is indeed an interesting and creative locale. We appreciated the diversity in the community, the availability of bicycle rentals, the close proximity to a U-Bahn station, the easy walk to the Eastside Gallery; Yes, I could go on.
Simply stated, we found a comfortable place in an historic setting. Of special note: My Dad, inadvertently, left behind a book bag with some personal items contained within. Once Alex was notified of such, he immediately offered to "overnight" the bag to my Dad's next stop, Aarhus, Denmark; a box containing my Dad's bag was waiting for him when he checked into his hotel. Thank you Alex! That act alone tells you the kind of person you are dealing with. If welcomed back, we will gladly return.
