This is a terrible hotel, and I hated every moment in it. The biggest problem was the lack of climate control ... on two sunny days the room was ridiculously hot and the a/c control seemed merely for show. Nothing I did could actually make even the slightest gust and then overnight the heating came on! Our sheets were drenched... More

We stayed here this week on a 3 day trip to Berlin. As other reviewers have said, the A/C is pretty much non-existent. I had read that on here, so I didn't even bother complaining when ours didn't work. It wasn't much of a problem the first 2 nights, but the last night was very warm. However, we have found... More

We booked a non-smoking room for 3 people for 3 days. Comfortable and decent sized beds (bigger than most I've been all over Western Europe) Spotless and nice bathroom too. Loved the big fluffy pillows. Neighborhood was nice, no noise at night. We definitely had a good night's sleep. They said this hotel isn't in the best part of town... More

Found the hotel to be fairly good with comfortable beds and a decent shower. We had a room at the back of the hotel and found it to be pretty quiet considering the hotel is on a main road. All the staff we met while staying there were very helpful and the twin room was clean although quite small. The... More

We booked this hotel specifically because it had air conditioning and we were visiting in the summer. The hotel isn't in the best part of town. It's okay during the day but not as great at night. The A/C in our room didn't work, and the desk clerk couldn't care less. We asked to move to another room and were... More

Hotel room was clean and neat, the bed was nice and comfortable. If its a bit warmer when you're there make sure the aircon is working properly - We spent our nights being very overheated even with the aircon cranked all the way up. Also don't expect the fridges to keep food cold enough for restaurant leftovers to be safe... More

We had a fourth floor smoking room with a wet room, which was huge. Lovely bed, comfy chair and plenty of hanging space. Underground right outside door and to the right of the hotel two streets down on the left loads of great bars and restaurants. On our last day my husband wanted a rest so I went left out... More

Clean, basic, a good base to sleep and go. The underground is right outside and bars less than ten minutes walk. Easy to get everywhere but you feel like you are off the tourist trail which is great. The bakery next door is cheap, there is also a beer shop open late over the road. Netto is next door. You... More

Pros: The room was a good size and quite comfortable. It was clean and the bathroom was good (although the shower was a little cramped). Great location (U-bahn right outside the door, and S-bahn about 5 minutes walk away) making it easy to get to most places from the hotel. It was also very easy to get between the hotel... More

This was a pretty average hotel. It was clean and close to the metro. There was a bakery and grocery store close by so we never ate breakfast there. My one suggestion would be to bring your own hairdryer because the one there is quite pitiful. Otherwise, everything was fine including the internet.
