Friedenau Hotel Guide - 2 stars Hotels in Friedenau, Germany

After WWII, a lot Berlin had disappeared into rubble; the wall and its impact also created a no man's land. You will notice as you move about the city, finding a 19th century or older building sandwiched between two very modern structures. The denomination "hotel" is misleading. Like a traditional pension, you have a basin in your room, but the toilet (in my case) was down the short corridor. But the building itself with elaborate thick doors and double glazed windows is an experience of old Berlin. That is, the Berlin of the 19th century. Breakfast is German style, but with cereal available. By "German", I mean cold cuts and cheese, with a boiled egg and bread. Tea or coffee is available. The two best tables are set in a bow window and look out on a small side street. It is worth waiting for one of those. My bed was comfortable and the water hot and plentiful. It is near bus and train transport for getting around. The Senta is well-worth considering as modest priced accommodation.
