Apartmenthaus Berlin Neukölln

The studio apartment smelled clean but was not. The advertised dishes and cookware were encrusted with food from previous guests’ use. A bizarre system is in place - there is a hob for cooking but nowhere to wash dishes. Guests are meant to leave dirty dishes and pots on a rack IN THE HALLWAY. These are picked up once a day. Yuck. I scrubbed at the filth on the pot and bowl and had to use the sink IN THE BATHROOM. Disgusting experience. I was prepared to overlook this. In the morning however, I went to shower and there was a massive insect circling the shower basin. Nope. Then I decided to do a deep dive. I stripped the bed and the mattress was FILTHY. We left that day and will be getting a refund. Never again. I am writing this review as a warning to potential visitors. The area, Neukölln is a mix of gritty and pretty. We found a beautiful park - Körnerpark and an excellent restaurant called Holi Cow. We would definitely return to Neukölln but it is certainly an area for the more open-minded and seasoned traveller. I actually loved the area but the Apartmenthaus was truly revolting.
