Gaby and her husband were very welcoming. I arrived earlier than expected, so I emailed Gaby that I was at a local cafe - she met me there and brought me into their wonderful apartment. The room is very private and quiet, with the bathroom just across the hall - the lodging was perfect for the quiet weekend I needed to work and explore the area. The neighborhood has many eateries and stores without a block or two. It is an easy walk to the English Garden and easy access to the bus, UBahn and SBahn systems.
