Our loft in Berlin Mitte could not be more central and more quiet at the same time. Our floor-to-ceiling windows face a huge park, a beautiful old indoor swimming-pool, and an old church. There are two balconies, one offers seating for meals outside and the other one has a cozy bench with a view into the treetops of the park. We are a family of 5, so there is a fully equipped children's room (bunk bed 2x 90/200 cm + single child bed 70/140 cm) and all the necessities that go with children (cutlery, chairs, beds, walking-bike, bobby-car....). If you come without kids, all the kids stuff could be easily hidden in the children's room and you have a perfect Berlin Mitte loft for two. The centre of the apartment is the spacious loft-style living room with 4 meter high ceilings, an open kitchen block, two sofas, a piano, a bureau, many books (sorry, no TV) and a huge dining table for 6 persons. When you open the huge glass door to the balcony you feel like sitting outside. Same in the bedroom where you can see stars at night. Since we are in a backyard it is very quiet. There is a green garden with a sand pit including lots of toys, table tennis and apple trees. (The backyard leads to the street, so younger kids still need supervision.) Next to our house there is an indoor swimming pool with 50 m lanes (more for sports, than for kids with regards to the water temperature).
