Living room, dining area, kitchenette

Bedroom and balcony

Downtown Berlin-Mitte sums it up perfectly - you will be situated in the middle of our capital city and are able to reach many important places of interest on foot: Checkpoint Charlie, the Berlin Wall Museum and the shopping street Friedrichstrasse round the corner, Potsdamer Platz, Martin-Gropius-Bau and lot of architecture of the 21st century, a little walk - stroll northwards along Friedrichstrasse to reach the famous avenue 'Unter den Linden - up one side and down the other gives you about a mile of nonstop window-shopping. In this area, the Berlin Public Transport network is densely woven: The central underground line 1 which takes you to Berlin’s western centre, and in the other direction to Friedrichshain/Kreuzberg, is a stone’s throw away. U-Bahn Line 2 leads to Station Zoologischer Garten one way and the other way through Berlin-Mitte to Prenzlauer Berg.

The interiors have: Fully equipped kitchens with everything needed for self catering. Bright and newly tiled comfortable bathroom. Living room with comfortable daybed (155cm x 200cm), two chairs, 55cm cable TV, wardrobe, dining corner for 4-5 persons, sideboard.

Accessibility
Our apartments are definitely wheelchair friendly: Barrierfree, wide doors, an spacious elevator and enaugh space to roll around. Best options provides Charlie 2 - in this apartment the bathroom's size is ca. 130 squarefeet, but it has a bathtub which might needs a 'tubboard', which you might take with you. The other bathrooms are a bit disadvantageous caused by beeing smaller and wrong door opening angle (toilet behind the door). Please ask for more info you need to know.

Outside
In this area, the Berlin Public Transport network is densely woven: The central underground line 1 which takes you to Berlin’s western centre, and in the other direction to Friedrichshain/Kreuzberg, is a stone’s throw away.

Phenomenal 15% of the urban area is forest ans green space and almost 10 lakes with some wild beaches but also white sanded cultivated ones f.i. the most famous 'Strandbad Wannsee'.

Skiing
We are sorry, the winter time bestows Berlin rare and little snow only. The winters become warmer and there is really little hope to get one of the few days in a decade, Berlin becomes a snow paradise. But if this happen once, you will see almost all of the 3.5 million Berliners amuse themselves on one of the 250 feet high debris hills of worldwar II. (It's a special Berlin happening, worth to have a short look at it!)

Travel
Caused by the history of our city, Berlin provides 3 city airports, which causes some confusion sometimes:
TXL Tegel - NW of Berlin - driving distance 7.6 miles
SFX Schoenefeld - SE of Berlin - driving distance 14.3 miles
THF Tempelhof - S of center airport of airbridge - 2 miles.
The brand new central station is another example of Berlin's future architecture. Huge halls let the people call it rail dome - 2.4 miles.

Distances
Living in the neighbourhood of Checkpoint Charlie the most important touristic points of interest are only a stone's throw away - no transport is necessary. The Berlin-Mitte area is the historical center of Berlin and you can reach the famous town's landmark 'Brandenburg Gate' onfoot in about 20 minutes walk. You'll pass the promenade 'Unter-den-Linden', up one side and down the other gives you about a mile of nonstop window-shopping - the shopping mile Friedrichstrasse is also round the corner.

Further details
Condominium and Neighborhood
Your apartment is situated in a new building (2001) with a special architectural ambiance. The attractively composed front with large windows, an imposing entrance and a stylish staircase welcome you to your temporary home in Berlin’s City.

The neighborhood features buildings by well-known architects of our era, such as Aldo Rossi, Peter Eisenman, Matthias Sauerbruch, Prof. Josef Kleihues and more.

At daytime the small street buzzes with people from the close-by offices and tourists from all over the world. Elegant shops in
the vicinity do full justice to Berlin-Mitte, one of our capital’s smartest areas. Parallel to Charlottenstrasse runs Friedrichstrasse with all its dazzling array of luxury shops and department stores (e.g. the famous Lafayette).

At nighttime this central living area is calm, quite and safe (because of the surrounding closed offices) - perfect for restful sleep after a busy, action-packed day.

My wife and I, along with another couple, rented two of these apartments in June 2006. They were both very comfortable and well-appointed. The kitchen was nice, and it was also nice to have a dishwasher and full-sized refrigerator (full-size by European standards). One of the apartments had a small balcony that looked over a courtyard off the bedroom. This is convenient for smokers, as smoking is not allowed in the apartment itself (which, though I am a smoker, was fine with me).
The location is perfect, though. It was only a two minute walk to Checkpoint Charlie and the Kochstrasse U-Bahn station on the U6 line. It was only a slightly longer walk to the Stadtmitte station, which has access to both the U2 and U6 lines.
I'll definitely stay here again.
