Some rude people in the front desk. I know it’s cheap but they need to improve the service!
3.0 / 10.0
Great location and relatively clean. However, be aware that there's no on-site laundry, and the nearest laundromat is a 20-minute walk away.

It wasn’t worth the money. The staff are rude and play games.

10.0 / 10.0
The location was great and the facilities were always clean and in order. I think the showers sometimes are inconsistent on temperature and how long they run but they work fine otherwise. The bar has cheap drinks and an easy place to socialize as well.
1.0 / 10.0
Terrible experience as the hostel had bedbugs that both of my family members experienced ( it wasn’t a problem of only one bed). The shared bathroom didn’t have paper and it was too small to fit all people per floor.
But the worst experience was because they charged me on site for the nights again after I paid through the hotels.com app. They claimed that they don’t have “direct” communication with Expedia and that’s why they couldn’t help me solving the issue. A guy named Tom was very rude by email and never helped solving the issue.
If you don’t have communication with the service provider , why do you work with them? So illogical…
Do yourself a favor and do not book there, there are many other options- im an experienced traveler and can tell you this has been one of the worst experiences.

Friendly staff, a quite big room and clean showers.
8.0 / 10.0
Great hostel with anything you need. 24-hour reception, basic breakfast for 10 EUR, bathrooms could be cleaner and smell bad. Be careful not to get charged twice. Initially, they said only one bed was booked and later blamed it on Expedia.

Stayed here in Berlin and I have to admit, I’ve never stayed in a low cost hostel before so yes I was slightly apprehensive about what waited for us 😂 I needn’t have worried.
check in was first class, young man (hearts fc supporter) was brilliant, rooms were excellent. For what we paid it was tremendous. Zero complaints at all. Will defo stay again.

You get what you paid. I don't think I could get better thing with the money I paid. The workers were kind and it looked like they are doing their best to remain hostel clean. But the the building was old and especially, bathroom and restroom was not comfortable. Again, I cannot complain because of its reasonable price, but it gave me a lesson that I have to pay more money to sleep in the room I feel enough in Europe than in America or Asia.
8.0 / 10.0
They did not offer us towels until after we had used our own wash clothes to bathe. Then we had to ask for towels. Didn’t know they would provide them. Should have been offered at check in. Their luggage storage area is out in the open and only available for a couple of hours. Noisy busy road with lots of construction. Sheets were clean.,beds were comfortable. Mold in shower curtains. Really load music in lobby at times. Some very loud walking in the halls during night but only temporary. Strict cancelation policy, no flexibility even about 4 weeks ahead.
10.0 / 10.0
Great hostel! Although breakfast price was way too high so bought breakfast elsewhere, and it looked like it was understaffed with the staff being overworked. One guy said he had only gotten 3 hours of sleep the night before. Great location, great prices, and clean! Will definitely come here again soon!

This ended up being a good choice for what I wanted to do. At first I was disappointed that the location wasn't in the heart of any district, but.it ended up being very convenient to S-bahn and thus everything.

Great central location and perfect for several days exploring Berlin.

Great place! Super central and very clean with all you could need in a hostel.
3.0 / 10.0
The bathrooms were disgusting but the bedrooms were overall clean. The matresses were not that comfy, better for a short stay.
A lot of smoking and alcohol drinking done at night around the counter by an employee and some guests. They were really loud around 1am.
5 euros are requested as a deposit for the key card.
6.0 / 10.0
It was very nice to get to know everyone in my room, which made for easy friends when you're travelling solo. However, as a light sleeper, I struggled to sleep with 7 other people in the room and bed that squeal whenever someone moves. The staff was incredible, and the location cannot be beat. If you're a good sleeper, I would probably recommend this hostel.
6.0 / 10.0
Booked for two people but they only received a booking for one person, and after clearing it up during check in they tried to charge me again, however, at least the staff were friendly and made it work. The bathrooms were pretty dirty but the rooms were fine.

Everything was pretty good and I had no problems checking in.

It was expensive for a hostel. I think the area is more expensive (Berlin downtown) and I booked short notice, but I feel like it was over priced compared to other areas of Germany and for it being a hostel. Otherwise it was a bed for a night, but do not expect any more than that. They also require a deposit to be put down for the key cards, which I found odd. In all, it was good for the night, but I would be alot happier if it was the typical hostel price. I felt like I was paying for a hotel and got a bare bones hostel.

Location was the best thing. Right in the centre, next to the New Synagogue, it’s within walking distance (about 10-minute walk) to anything in Berlin Centre, such as Alexanderplatz or Reichstag. It was a nice and calm place.
The staff there were really friendly, always helping you in case of needing it. We were originally five, but due to personal reasons, one of the friends couldn’t make it, so when we informed the staff about this situation, they were completely ok with it (obviously they didn’t give the money back, but it was understandable as we informed on the day we got there).
Breakfast is ok, worth it for 5€, as it’s a buffet, and you can eat as much food as you want, but it did lack a bit of choice to be honest, it included bread, jam, butter, cereals, yogurt, fruit and some orange juice. Although whenever you wanted you could have free coffee, tea, or water throughout the day, which was very generous.
They have a happy hour which everyone really enjoyed! The WiFi works great, and kitchen facilities are good!
The room was clean, bed sheets and towels provided, and quite spacious. But be aware cleaning staff do enter throughout the day, which we were not informed about and really didn’t want them to.
The bathroom facilities were not bad, but could have been better, as the two showers next to our bedroom didn’t work, so we had to go over to the other side, but they were clean, which is the main thing.
I would definitely recommend this to anyone!

Great location, decent prices, and lots of good perks like free towels and 5-euro breakfast buffet. I liked the high ceilings and courtyard for eating too. Relatively quiet street. No air conditioning, but things cooled down eventually when I opened the windows of my room

Unfortunately my experince was bad at the hostel. I booked for private room and there is no toilette in the room and regarding this there was no sign on the booking page!! In the morning of course toiletts are full and busy!! If I would know that I would not book with them. The bed was uncomfortable. Even I booked private room and paid lot of money I have to make my bed myself!! There was so much noise in the night, in the morning, during the night.. It was impossible to sleep!! I was all the time tired :(( Also wifi doesn not work at the rooms either :(( It sucks! So I am not satisfied with this booking.

Overall Fantastic!!!!
