    Bunkbeds in dorm are small and you had to squeeze into your bed. No steps to hop into top bunk bed.

    Fantastic location and quiet backpackers. Beautiful smaller backpackers so feels very homely. Nice staff free breakfast and coffee and tea.

    Kitchen hob was a bit broken but eventually got it to work. The floor in our room was a bit sticky / not the cleanest. It was very quiet when we were there and not much chance to meet other people at the hostel, we only spoke to one other traveller during our stay.

    Really liked the free cereal breakfast and coffee. Kitchen was modern and clean. Bathrooms were clean. Bed was comfortable. Nice atmosphere throughout. Lovely area for bars and also good brunch and coffee places. It’s on the U5 line which takes you direct to all the main sights in Berlin. Good laundry facilities. They offered us luggage storage for free on our last day.

    The first floor has wooden floors so walking can be loud. Reminder: you need to bring your own toiletries, the hostel only provides a bath towel and hand sanitiser.

    The room was clean and cosy and the reception was very nice. There was free coffee and cereal, a sitting area and smoking area. Toilet was clean. Definitely worth of money. It's easy to get to, there's plenty of good food nearby, and there's two flat markets on weekends. The water pressure was great so u can taking shower comfortably.

    Not much really.

    Staff were very friendly and helpful. Location was excellent. Very close to a number of great clubs including Oxi, about: blank and Berghain. Some great breweries/bars and places to eat too. F'hain is a really nice neighbourhood to explore too. They had coffee.

    First of all, we really liked the location, but also how in the hostel they take care of the details so the guests feel like at home. I have to say that the quality of the sleep there was surprisingly so good, felt very rested in the mornings, and really liked that the silence and the comfort of the guests are well respected! Also liked the receptionist who’s originally from Uruguay (sorry, don’t know the name), who was extremely friendly and helpful!

    There was no sink in the second bathroom outside of our room. A bit stress to shift bathroom to wash your hands. And the handle to the door was loose.

    The dog, the free coffee and tea! + cereal. Very nice! The location, a lot of restaurant and bars. Lot of things to do. The room, with temperatur and air.

    Nothing major but our floor was quite squeaky, hopefully it does not disturb anyone downstairs. Otherwise there have been people talking and singing on the balcony directly next to our bed and in the middle of the night a couple of times, so earplugs are mandatory, sleeping mask too if you are not an early bird.

    Great location in a hip area. The staff is super friendly and helpful. We also enjoyed the common area which is quite cozy. Shared bathrooms only but they are usually very clean.
