Berlin is an enormous city. Would you rather be close to the sites or close to good restaurants and entertainment? If it's the former, Mitte is the place to stay. If you want to spend less and stay in the neighborhoods, consider Charlottenburg, Prenzlauer Berg, or Friedrichshain.

I cannot recommend any apartments, but I would recommend staying in The Mitte. It seemed like so much of what we wanted to see was within easy walking distance there, and we found restaurants and lovely bakeries anytime we needed one.
