Very nice hostel, all the staff is cool even the boss! You can met a lot of people from all around the world in the living room, i recomend it for all the young people who want to have fun or chill! The hostel is near to oranienstrass which is very lively, and from 2 stations of warschauer strass where you find all the clubs! I have already been a few time there and i will definitly come again! Not for old and boring people who wants to sleep at 9 pm

It was awesome. A great place to stay, great people. perfect for travelling alone as there are plenty of people to meet, and plenty of things to do but it's not to much of a party hostel. I'd go there again without a doubt.

We found the cleanliness and showers at the hostel appalling. The water was ALWAYS cold no matter what time we showered and the taps turn off every 15 seconds. Then getting out of the shower into a freezing bathroom is not a pleasant experience. The paper towel in bathrooms was replaced with a communal towel. unhygeinic! The kitchen was not very clean. There should be a warning that people can smoke inside. asthma sufferers struggle. Music was loud and non-stop. even at 4am.

I loved the stay at this hostel. Staff were friendly and informative and the guests were super social. A really lively hostel. I didn't enjoy the indoor smoking policy however (smoking was permitted in the common room after 6pm).

Only real downside, is that it wasn't always clean. Very strong possibility that it was just the group of people, however Loved the atmosphere, location, and staff. Kitchen was great, but closed at 10:00pm. Staff on attendance 24/7, nice for late night pool games and chats. Rooms were a bit cramped, and had poor ventilation. I'd say, if you like to lounge and drink beer, this is your place. Less for clubbers and partyers than for drinkers. Situated in Kreutzberg means alternative music

This hostel was very cool. I loved the vibe. And the staff were very friendly. The neighborhood seems a little sketchy, but it's a good starting point for traveling in Berlin. A U-bahn station (their metro/underground like system) is conveniently located in front of the place. The free wifi worked well and could be accessed from the rooms. My only complaint is that smoking was allowed in the lobby/lounge, but I don't smoke. It's only allowed at night, but the smell lingers.

Love this hostel - been to Berlin a few times and I always stay here: right next to an U-Bahn station, couldn't be in a better location! There's such a fantatsic of variety of people & nice mix of characters I always meet here - always someone strumming the guitar, someone drinking at the hostel bar, or hanging out at the pool table, people from all over the world! I especially love the kitchen in this place - it's clean, well equipped and has an outside terrace. I'll be back Baxpax! x

The room was disgusting, trash everywhere, and no staff cleaned in the rooms, also the foosball in the dorm room hallway at 3am was a little frustrating but hey thats to be expected at any hostel really.

A really great hostel! Good, international atmosphere where everyone gets along in harmony. Definitely going to go back again. The location is ideal for having a cheap holiday but still feeling like you are in the centre of Berlin.

Sound for the price, and the location is in the heart of 'cool' berlin! just not much atmosphere although all the staff are lovely and this is quite unusual as you always tend to get one bad egg! just not enough toilets and its a small hostel with no real socialising area, but as we never hang around in hostels it was great for us!

Dear Victoria, thank you for staying at our baxpax kreuzberg hostel in November. We read your feedback for hostelworld regarding your stay and want to take the opportunity to revise the details of your complaint. This may help us to improve our service and quality of our settings and at the same time we would like to sort out some misunderstandings. Firstly, we would like to know if you had any bad experience leading you to a critic that is far from the average expercience and satisfaction of other guests of our hostel? Especially the fun and the character was subject of your complaint (only 2 out of 5 points possible) and we would appreciate if you could take the time explain your criticism on this further. Because we have a big reception area with a bar where you can meet many different inernational people. This is our big socialising area. But sometimes when we are not fully booked it could be that there are not so many people around. Again we would be grateful for more information about the main subject matters of your complaint. Furthermore i told my colleagues about your good recommendation to the Staff. They where very happy to here about that. Kind regards, Sascha
