New website for Berlin

Hi everyone, well last year was a good start for my two studios in Berlin. Now I have a website:
www.centralberlinapartments.com
It is the first draft so to speak, I will be adding a section on local attractions and neighborhood.
Meanwhile feedback very much appreciated
thanks

I looked at the site but it says nothing about an internet connection which is obviously important for these people.
Thanks anyway

sorry just re-read posts and realized I am being cautioned against using online calendar sites. Ok will research more sites that forward queries direct to the owner. I have to laugh though, wouldn't it be great if my only problem was juggling all the bookings! I am sure it will not be so easy starti...

I can already imagine how stressful that could be having to constantly update and check their bookings, I am sure some days it would be fine, but there are bound to be days when one has other things to do. I would be interes...
