“convenient accommodation in berlin”

10-15 minutes walking from Ostbahnhoff, which in turn is two stops from Alexanderplatz. The neighborhood doesn't offer too much but the hostel is nice and staff very friendly. I would go there again without problems.

“Very nice hotel”

nice hotel, excellent location

“Good Location - Perfect for Young Travelers Who Know Where They're Going!”

Let's be clear... It's a hostel. I booked a private room, which was a tiny dorm-like room, with a private bathroom, closet, desk and small TV. Had to pay extra for Wi-Fi. Be aware that there may be activity at all hours in the lobby and hallways, including people hanging out on the steps at the front door to the hostel. It isn't otherwise a bustling street, and had to wander a few blocks to find food. However, it is a super convenient location -- only a few blocks to the U-Bahn at Heinrich-Heine Strasse, and a fifteen minute walk to the Ost-Bahnhof station -- also only a couple of stops from Alexanderplatz, which makes it easy to get just about everywhere. I wouldn't recommend this place if you're looking for a super comfortable place to stay, but it's perfect if you're a young traveler who needs an affordable place to stay, and more or less knows how to get around town.

“Basic but good”

Noisy because of other hotel residents. Basic room with twin beds and bathroom - all rather cramped but it was clean. Had to walk quite a way to find transport. Hotel staff extremely helpful and kind and spoke excellent English.

“berlin hostel/hotel”

I took a 2.5 hours sightseeing bus tour and I asked the driver how to get to the hotel without his help, I would have problems. I took public train, wonderful stranger helped me getting closer to the hotel because public transportation can be confusing and without him it would have taken me much longer. You have to get off on OSTBAHNHOF station. When I got off the train most people did not know the street and when I had to go but I met women that directed me and it is about 15-20 min walk. It is a hostel as well as a hotel. It does not look like much outside or inside but the rooms in the hotel area are very nice and clean, room was perfect- it had a small tv, no radio, no phone but you can rent a clock for 5 Euro if you need to walk up early. Breakfast was included and it was delicious but you cant take any food with you. I would stay there again in the future.

“Stay here! It's ideal”

Clean, comfortable, value for money. Nice little bar with reasonable prices. Room clean and comfortable and hotel ideally situated away from the city centre but close to U bahn and S bahn station. Only downside is very small bathroom in room. The acid test is - would we stay there again?...Definitely!

“Bedbugs!! Awesome!”

You better take my advise if you don't want to have bugbites. Location is perfect and near Berlin's fun, but at least for me, the cleanliness of the room is a must for the price paid.

“A little walking saves a lot of money”

This hotel is about equidistant from Heinrich Heine Unterbahn and the Ostbahnhof S-Bahn stations, about 1/4 to 1/3 mile. After an active day of walking in Berlin, the small amount of noise mentioned in other reviews from partiers is not enough to keep you awake. The bathroom is very small, but clean and everything worked. No A/C on a hot day can be a challenge for us Americans, but the German windows are neat and they work just fine. The breakfast is simple but generous, with salad, yogurt, lunchmeat and cheese, and several types of breads, as well as apple juice and orange juice and coffee. East Berlin has now recovered enough that it looks as good as or better than many sections of American cities, and I felt safer. One elevator is inconvenient when you have an 8th floor room like we did, but we're healthy, and the 50% of times it looked like a wait, we just took the stairs. I would definitely consider returning to this hotel.

“Efficient and functional good value hotel.”

Check in was very quick once we filled in the registration form, our room was clean and had a good bathroom and there was a decent selection of food for the breakfast buffet.
