Read More...Wir hatten eine wundervolle und entspannte Woche mit unseren drei Kindern in Berlin. Marlenes und Tilmanns Wohnung ist sehr gemütlich eingerichtet, sehr sauber, ordentlich und gepflegt und ein Paradies für alle Leseratten und Musikliebhaber – wir haben uns dort sehr wohlgefühlt. Für Kinder gibt es jede Menge Spielsachen, Marlene hat unsere Kinder mit einer Verkleidungskiste überrascht. Die Wohnung liegt ruhig in der Nähe des Landwehrkanals, dessen Ufer zu schönen Herbstspaziergängen einlädt. Rundum befinden sich unzählige, tolle Restaurants und Cafés. Marlene und Tilmann sind sehr erfahrene Haustauscher und haben uns mit den richtigen Tipps (Spielplätze, Tierpark, etc.) versorgt. Wir Erwachsenen haben uns in Berlin im Wesentlichen auf den Fahrrädern der Weickmanns fortbewegt, die Kinder mit viel Freude auf ihren Kinderrollern. Unser Haus haben die Weickmanns blitzsauber verlassen. Wir können Marlenes und Tilmanns Wohnung für einen Berlinaufenthalt unbedingt empfehlen. Vielen Dank nochmal für den rundum gelungenen Austausch mit euch, liebe Weickmanns!

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
In the Graefe-Kiez you find lots of trendy cafés and restaurants from homemade burger to one Michelin-Star. As many young families live in the area, you find childrens playgrounds, familiy-friendly-cafés or the "Hasenheide" with a little zoo, everything 1-10 min. walk from the apartment. The area is quiet because of traffic calming measures. Public transport stations are just 3-5 minutes away and connect to Alexanderplatz (8 min. by underground) and Potsdamer Platz (14 min. by bus).
