Interesting experience
Location great. Elevator a lifesaver. Poor connection with man with keys upon arrival. Was not informed parking on street cost Euro 4.00 an hour!!! Stove didn't work - NO Instructions. NO microwave. NO info on recycling. One of glass doors on Schrank in bedroom was cracked. Shower didn't function properly. We survived, but will NOT return to this apt.

Fun un Unter de Linden
We so very much enjoyed Berlin-- fascinating city with a tortured and difficult history (e.g. Fascism, WWII destruction, Berlin Wall). Our visit was even more enjoyable-- with the conveniently located and comfortable apartment. It was perfect for a couple-- the kitchen had all we needed and the bathroom was clean and well kept.

Nice stay in Berlin
Alessandra’s apartment was exactly as advertised. It was in a good location, near public transportation, and with many restaurants, grocery stores, and sites nearby. The apartment was well-equipped, and the washing machine worked very well. It was very hot during our stay, and without air conditioning, we attempted to sleep with windows open, but it was rather noisy from activity on the streets below. Our host was very responsive at all times.

Bonne localisation de l’appartement
L’appartement est bien situé, tout près d’une station de métro. Lit confortable. Quelques ajouts rendraient l’expérience de séjour plus agréable, par exemple un petit cahier expliquant le fonctionnement du four (pour les non-européens), un couteau de chef, des couteaux bien aiguisés et une deuxième coupe à vin. Autrement nous avons apprécié l’appartement, qu’on nous a permis de prendre plus tôt que prévu pour encaisser le décalage du voyage transatlantique. Merci beaucoup pour cela!

Check Point Charlie Pros and Cons
Pros. Right next to Check Point Charlie, great coffee and restaurants in the area, close to numerous public transit options (bus, subway etc), really safe keycard access (door and elevator) building on a quiet street, great communication and easy check-in. We had a few issues but they were quickly and professionally dealt with. Everything in the apartment as advertised - appliances, etc. Cons - while all as advertised, the apartment has seen better days. The shower riser was broken and the heads almost totally calcified, the chairs and sofa were very uncomfortable (but we didn’t really come to Berlin to hang out in the apartment), the wood floor is trashed (the uncomfortable sofa becomes a reasonably comfortable bed) and it wasn’t super clean. However the price and location were pretty good, and other than the shower and the tortuous seating we were mostly pleased.

Perfect place
Loved this cute apartment. It’s one block from Checkpoint Charlie, museums and restaurants. Check in and communication with the owners could not have been easier. Would love to come back and stay again as we would love more time in this beautiful, vibrant city. We recommend a lovely restaurant down the block Veli’s Restaurant. Very good variety of food including German. We enjoyed everything we ate there. When we come back we would love to stay here again.

Great Place
Location worked well for getting around, either on foot or by taxi/Uber/Bolt. Apartment had the necessities that I needed. They had a snafu when I arrived in that the unit hadn't yet been cleaned. It was promptly cleaned. I just ran to the grocery store while it was being cleaned. When you enter, the lock is a little tricky. Be sure and try it while Eric is there. I thought I was going to be sleeping in the hallway the first night but a neighbor kindly helped me. After that, I got the hang of it.

Wonderful Apartment with great view
Truly enjoyed the apartment. It is spacious, clean, and has an outdoor deck with a great view from the top floor of a well maintained and secure building. Around the corner from Checkpoint Charlie and near all other attractions, as well as many shops and restaurants. The only suggestions to make it even better would be a more comfortable couch and perhaps a smart TV.

Great location for 4 nights in Berlin
Property was ideal for a couple's long weekend in Berlin with convenient access to historical sites. Nearby Italian and Vietnamese restaurants were excellent and grocery store close by for supplies. Really enjoyed sitting on the balcony each evening given the very warm, but dry, September weather during our stay.

Great Location and Safe, Clean Building
Erik and Allesandro are very responsive. Our flight arrived a bit late and' Erik waited for us in the apartment. We are so sorry that we did not have exact change for the tax. Erik spotted us 1 euro, thank you Erik. Please ensure you have exact change to provide on check in for the city tax so Erik doesn't have to spot you too, lol. Also, if there is an issue with the toilet flushing, check the water knobs on the left side of the shower. We did not touch them, but had this issue, and the owner quickly sent a very nice repairman to rectify the situation. Washer, dishwasher, and microwave were easy to figure out their use, and there was even a drying rack, which I like, since I seldom dry my clothes in the dryer. Recommend throwing out your recycle before you are ready to check out, so you know where the area in the garage is, before you are rushed if trying to catch transportation, etc. We called a taxi to take us to the train station and the taxi was there in less than five minutes. Note that there is Lidl store only a few blocks away, which is very inexpensive for all your needs. The coffee maker that was there when we visited in March 2023 was a normal, #4 cone-shaped filter maker, which I prefer to K Kups or Nespresso cups. The fold out futon in the living room is pretty comfortable, so no worries if you are not a couple and not sharing the bed. There is a nice little Italian restaurant around the corner (make a left out of the building and then the next left)
