Unsafe
Upon my arrival, I encountered a highly unsafe and unsanitary environment. The lobby was filthy, and the public bathroom contained drug paraphernalia, including used needles. This situation was alarming and unacceptable, prompting me to leave immediately for my safety. I attempted to contact the hotel numerous times over the following days to report these issues and request a refund but received no response. As a result, I reached out to Hotels.com immediately to let you know about the situation and to ask for help. The fact that Hotels.com has been unable to secure a refund despite my immediate notification and the severe conditions at the hotel is deeply concerning. This situation goes beyond typical refund policies—it involves serious health and safety violations that made it impossible for me to stay at the property.

Nice modern hostel with great facilities.
This is a great hostel in Berlin, everything is very new & trendy. The rooms are great and have a seperate shower and toilet. The bar downstairs is great to meet new friends, very social area. The only thing is that I think the lockers in the room need improving, the door on mine was broken but other than that all great.

Staff was very friendly and helpful, but I ended up in a pretty dirty room. It looked like someone had been living there for months. Trash everywhere and a slight smell. I didn’t rate it lower because the overall building was nice and the cost was so cheap. Plus, I might have just gotten unlucky with my room. Definitely a convenient location with lots to do around.

I booked this place not expecting much. It was so cheap but it ended up being very clean and beds were comfy. The rooms have a private toilet and shower, so you don't have to go out of the room everytime. The only thing I would complain about, the shower, the one in our room had no pressure and the drain was really smelly. But it did the job.
