We stayed at Alex's place for a few nights in September. The apartment is as described and slept our group of 5 people comfortably. Public transportation (buses and subway) were less than a minute outside the door and it was easy to get around anywhere in the city from those access points (it took us about 15 minutes to travel from the flat to Oktoberfest). As described in the listing, there is only a kitchen area to sit (no living room), but this is exactly what we were looking for, as we were out exploring all day and only at the flat for sleep at night/getting ready in the morning. The flat was clean upon arrival. Ahead of our travel, Alex provided very detailed information on how to access the flat and answered any questions we had promptly. We were able to check in to the flat a bit earlier than stated which was great! The Italian restaurant that is part of the building has pretty decent pizza as well. The only down side is that you are provided with a single key (which was problematic for our group of 5, as we did not all explore the city together the entire trip, which meant that if anyone arrived back at the flat before the key holder, they had to wait for that person to return to the flat in order to gain access). Other than that, everything was great and we were very happy with our stay! We highly recommend Alex and his flat. Thanks Alex!
