This was one of the best places I've ever found on Airbnb, seriously. There are only pictures of the room and not the apartment, but the place is much better than photos.
Pluses:
- The apartment is recently renovated, with minimalistic design and all facilities any modern apartment should have.
- But still this is old building and some of old-fashioned details are there - like an old door knobs.
- This place has 2 bathrooms for 3 bedrooms - so you'll never wait in line for a shower. And both bathrooms are super clean and comfortable.
- Really big bed - my 2-meter long boyfriend was finally able to get a proper sleep)
- Oli and his girlfriend are wonderful persons - pity we didn't have much time to hanging out with them, they are so artistic and have so much stories to tell.
- Also my boyfriend and I were treated like old friends - we could make coffee or breakfast in the morning though that was not necessary for us.
- A lot of food options for any time of the day - the street is full with restaurants and bars.
Still there are some things to improve:
- It could be very noisy in the room - because of the bars and clubs at night and garbage trucks in the morning. So bring on the earplugs.
- Better don't go near Görlitzer Park down the street - though Oli assured us there was nothing to be afraid of, that place didn't feel safe.
Overall, superb place in a rave neighborhood. Perfect for those who want to party in Berlin. Maybe not quite suitable for introverts, because this place could be crowdy with host's friends, but I liked it!
