Normally I don´t rate hotels, but Peter kindly asked for it and we have had a great time in his apartment: Short version: Cleanliness very good, location very good, booking procedure good. When I come back for another trip to Berlin I will definitely book this flat again.

Buchungsproezedere Die Buchung war problemlos und rasch, mehr gibt's dazu eigentlich nicht zu sagen! Lage der Wohnung Die Wohnung liegt wenige U-Bahn Stationen vom Alex entfernt und hat eine ausgezeichnete Anbindung an das öffentliche Verkehrsnetz. Die Tatsache, dass sie an einer Durchzugsstraße liegt, fällt in der Praxis nicht auf - die Fenster halten Schall gut ab und es schläft sich ausgezeichnet! Ausstattung Vorhanden ist alles, was man zum Bestreiten des Alltags so braucht, und mehr. Sehr hilfreich ist auch die Tatsache, dass man ein w-lan kapern kann. Preis Das Appartment ist sein Geld wert! Gesamturteil Der Berlin-Aufenthalt in diesem Appartment war extrem angenehm. Hervorzuheben ist die absolut gute Organisation der Schlüsselübergabe - der Host weiss was er tut und das merkt man auch! Das Appartment ist eigentlich eine vollwertige Wohnung mit allem, was man sich so wünscht. Sauber, gut ausgesattet und insgesamt empfehlenswert.

Zuviel versprochen?!

Die Bilder, die Beschreibung, die bisherigen Bewertungen und auch die ersten Kontaktaufnahmen klangen sehr vielversprechend. Leider war dann nicht alles so toll wie versprochen: Unsere Ankunft (2 Erw., 3 Kinder) schien schlichtweg nicht vorbereitet worden zu sein; ein zusätzliches Bett sowie ein versprochener Wein fehlte; der Parkettboden war so schmutzig, dass unsere Barfuss-herumrennende Tochter schwarze (!) Füsse bekam. Ein daraufhin versprochener Putztrupp wurde jedoch leider nicht gesehen. Weiterhin fehlte es an Selbstverständlichkeiten wie Küchenhandtücher oder Toilettenpapier. Mindestens Ersteres sowie auch das zusätzliche Bette wurden jedoch noch prompt am gleichen Tag vorbeigebracht. Alles in allem kann man sich in der Wohnung wohlfühlen: Sie ist hell und freundlich gestaltet. Ganz ruhig ist es nicht, da die grossen Strassen nicht zu überhören sind. Die U-Bahn ist direkt vor der Haustür, in Richtung Stadtmitte muss man jedoch stets am Alexanderplatz umsteigen (eine durchgehende Verbindung befindet sich noch im Bau). Der nächste Supermarkt ist ca. 300m entfernt. Empfehlung: Vielleicht sollte man sich ein paar Tage vor Ankunft nochmals beim Vermieter melden, damit man sicher nicht "vergessen" geht.

We had a great stay at this apartment. It was a longer walk from Alexanderplatz than we felt the advertisement stated (took around 15 mins), but once we started using the U-Bahn stop located directly outside the building, the city was very easily accessible. We had a young child with us, but the apartment was spacious enough that she could sleep in another room. The apartment is extremely large and clean and located in a safe area. There is a bakery and a cafe nearby, as well as a grocery store. The woman who let us in was very flexible about our check-out time and very helpful in recommending restaurants/sites. We would recommend this apartment to others.

Owner response:Thanks very much and hope to see you again. Peter

Good Location

This apartment was conveniently located near the U-Bahn. The owner promptly responded to all emails. It is a very basic apartment. The kitchen is small, and I think it would be a stretch to say it was fully equipped. There is a small selection of dishes, pots and pans and cutlery, a gas stove and oven, a kettle and a small fridge. It is good for preparing something quick and easy, but there is not much prep room for the person who really likes to cook. There is a nice market just down the street, which made stocking up easy. We found it best to bring our own canvas shopping bags because you can carry more in a single bag when walking. My two sons and I stayed at six VRBO sites on our trip to Europe. Given our experience, the price and the location, this is a fair deal. I would suggest providing more linens, though. We only received one bath towel each for 5 nights, and there was no washer or dryer, which was a stretch. There was not quite enough bedding for our comfort, either. The internet worked most of the time, which was great because we were blogging daily, but it did stop working our final day. There is television, but it is all in German with no international news channels in other languages. This was fine because we were out most of the time, anyway, and the majority of the time we had internet to catch up on the news. It is a good place to sleep, shower, warm up from the frigid weather, and prepare a simple meal in a good location. Not a lot of frills, but the price is fair for what is offered.

We booked an apartment but in the end we felt like at home because it was so cosy, bright and quiet. The area is absolute safe and you find all necessary things: Supermarket, restaurants, bakery. Connection to public transport is excellent: 10min to Alexanderplatz by using the metro in front of the house entrance. All of our addition questions before and after booking were answered very soon and professional. We will definitely recommend this apartment to friends and hope to come back next year.

Das Apartment entsprach ganz der Beschreibung: modern eingerichtet, groß und trotzdem sehr persönlich (die alte Schreibmaschine und die Figuren setzen wunderbare Akzente). Mit der U-Bahn vor der Haustür erreicht man alle Sehenswürdigkeiten ganz schnell. Buchung und Check in waren ebenfalls sehr gut.
