Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
El Cafecito is stylish (although a bit lacking in the luxury department), still this Altbau style home with gorgeous high ceilings will make you feel right at home. Antique furniture pieces help to inject some character, and the well-stocked kitchen has plenty of space to rustle up a meal, with the small seating area creating a sociable atmosphere. But be warned, this home is located on the third floor in a building without a lift – at least you’ll be getting your step count in.
