Ask the host anything
Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
It’s easy to see that The Rooses is a loving home. Tanja and Christian have travelled all over the world, picking up souvenirs, artworks and books along their way, which are now proudly displayed in their Prenzlauer Berg flat. Especially perfect for a family of four, it’s designed for both children and adults to have a good time. The hosts are extremely knowledgeable about Berlin (they do city guides for a living), so don’t forget to ask them for their favourite things to do in the city.
