Die Rezeption hat nichts besseres zu tun, als die Polizei zu rufen, nach einem überaus fraglichen Hinweis eines Zimmergenossen (Denunziant!). Hintergrund, eine Bühnenrequisite, die ich hin und wieder bei Auftritten verwende und auf meinem Bett abgelegt hatte. Ein Patronengurt mit LEEREN Hülsen. Die Reaktion der Polizei völlig unverhältnismäßig! Tür fast aufgebrochen, 6 Mann mit Helm, Schild & ECHTEN Waffen im Anschlag, Festnahme auf dem Boden mit Handschellen. Über 1h für die Klärung ...

Translated to English

The reception has nothing better to do than call the police, after a very questionable tip from a roommate (Denunciant!). background, a prop used occasionally at performances and left on my bed. a leather helmet. the police reaction is completely disproportionate! door is broken, 6 man with helmet, shield & real weapons in attack, arrest on the floor with handcuffs. over 1h for clarification needed.

The Hostel location is very strategic, however, I paid for a four-person room and on the second day a fifth person walked in. The room had six beds but they specifically told me that only four people would be sleeping. Also, the bathroom kept making noises, and every time you shower, the water comes out all over the floor.

Booked and paid a room for 4 Mixed Dorm but the staff put me in room of 8 people. When asked, the staff said there was an error in the system and provided me no refund at all. The location of the hotel is quite bad and does not seem safe at all. - not recommend

This was the worst Hostel I have ever been to. They tried to rip us off us already by checking in, telling us that we should pay more than what was shown at the end price after booking it with Hostelworld. Really shady staff. They then proceeded to give us a bedroom with more beds in it than we initially paid for. We discussed with the staff for a really long time about it, and they were trying to find arguments for it the hole time instead of accepting it. Cleanliness in bathroom = 0

Absolutely terrible hostel! Avoid at ALL costs, the staff charged our credit cards 4x the correct amount and tried to play dumb about the situation. The building was disgusting and smelly, and the rooms were dark, congested, and dirty when we arrived. No one felt safe staying in this establishment, should be 0/5 stars. Save yourself the trouble and stay anywhere else.

Douche is niet automatisch inbegrepen bij een hostel kamer. De douche die we hadden was mega goor. Alle bedden kraken zo erg dat niemand kan slapen. Het hele gebouw is erg gehorig. Lopen veel mensen rond die niet een kamer in het hostel hebben

J’ai hébergé une nuit dans cet hostel, et j’ai regretté! La literie est une catastrophe: le lit grinçait beaucoup, le sommier n’était pas droit, j’ai fu mettre le matelas directement au sol. Franchement, j’ai très très mal dormi. Les sanitaires étaient mal nettoyé et désinfectés. Il y avait une forte odeur nauséabonde. Je déconseille. .

I stayed one night in that hostel, and I regretted it! the bedding is a disaster: the bed was very creaky, the bedside table was not straight, I had to put the mattress directly on the floor. frankly, I slept very, very badly. the toilets were poorly cleaned and disinfected. there was a strong nauseating smell. i don't recommend it.

Das Zimmer war nicht sehr sauber, die Reinigungskraft hat anscheinend zuerst den Fußboden geputzt und dann den dreckigen Lappen im Waschbecken ausgewrungen, ohne es nachher nochmal zu säubern :-(. Der Fußboden war auch nicht sauber. Ein Stuhl war kaputt.

This place has to have been an old asylum or hospital they converted into a hostel. The corridors are really dark and the rooms all have bars on the windows. Also only had 2 plugs in the room for an 8 person dorm. Awful atmosphere. Also the place is very popular with big school groups. Would not recommend staying more than a night, if you have to. Wouldn’t stay here again. Only positive is it’s right next to a metro station.

The location was great, the subway station was right outside of the hostel. None of the 8 lockers in our room worked, which was annoying. The beds also made a lot of noises everytime someone moved, which woke us up a few times during the nights. The bathroom did not have soap at all, and one of the toilets was clogged half the time we were there (2days). Not a great social atmosphere for young travelers. There were many teenagers on schooltrips and elder people.

I was really impressed with this place. We had a private room and to be honest it felt more like a hotel room. It was quiet and everything was clean. Only thing is there are no floor or hand towels provided and the towel for bathing is very small. The price was very very expensive for us. But it was the Berlin marathon so maybe this contributed to the high price.

Ambiance macabre et lugubre. L’auberge est très défraîchie n’importe qui peut y entrer, heureusement que chaque chambre fonctionne par clef magnétique! Aucune intimité dans les toilettes pour hommes, les 3 seules douches de l’étage sont fermées par des portes en verres très clair et on voit les gars nu se doucher pendant qu’on est au lavabo. Manque cruel de prises électriques dans les chambres (2 pour 10 personnes). PAS DE CUISINE pour y préparer ses repas. Le déjeuner e...

The hostel is very uncool anyone can enter, luckily each room works by magnetic key! no privacy in the men's bathroom, the only 3 showers on the first floor are closed by very clear glass doors and you can see the guys not showering while they are in the bathroom. cruel lack of electrical outlets in the rooms (2 for 10 people). NO KITCHEN to prepare their meals.

Did I like this hostel? No not really. While it could be a lot worse, it’s pretty old and falling apart. The staff are nice enough, but the vibes are really lacking. The location is nice so close to the metro. I would not stay again. On the plus side, I did book a 6 person shared room and had it to myself for 3 nights. It’s a really big hostel with a lot of families using it :)

È un ostello molto carino, praticamente nel centro città! Accanto c’è quello che definiscono il miglior kebab di Berlino, purtroppo c’era sempre un sacco di fila e quindi non siamo riusciti a testarlo… Il dormitorio era abbastanza pulito (tolto un leggero ammasso di capelli nel buco della doccia, ma basta non guardarlo e portarsi le ciabatte e non ci sono problemi! Cosa importante da ricordare: bisogna portarsi il proprio lucchetto, loro comunque ne forniscono uno per 5€ Buona qualit�...
