The location of the apartment was just what we wanted - in a relatively quiet street on the edge of the city centre - we could walk everywhere if we wanted to, but with a metro station and two taxi ranks all less than 10 minutes away, we were spoilt for choice. Plenty of reasonably priced local restaurants close by, plus a great daily food market almost next door. Having the Alexanderplatz jazz club only 100 metres away was a bonus. The apartment itself was great - very clean and well equipped, with stylish decoration and very luxurious bathrooms.
