A dirty staircase led me to a reception room. When checking in, I asked for the key and found out that me and the other three people share the key. The bed had stains. My lamp was broken. The lockers were a joke.

Loved this place! Free pool table, cool lounge and a nice kitchen... Beds were pretty bad but other than that it was a quirky little place.

For the price paid the accommodations were adequate. The photos depicted on the website are no longer accurate as to what the hostel looks like. It is much more run down and the cleanliness leaves much to be desired. The lockers in room 5 where I stayed were not all functioning and I didn't trust them. I must admit that my first impression was very, very negative (the worst place I stayed during a month long trip) however in the end my stay was not as unpleasant as I originally predicted.

This was a good hostel for your money. We only paid 7 euros per night and weren't expecting 5 star facilities. The lockers were not secure and didn't work. Probably wouldn't stay there again, but good at the time. It was pretty dirty, and the bathrooms were kind of gross.

Good value for money and good vibe. Only bad thing was smoking inside the common area.

The staff were so much help and I must have asked them 10 questions a day. For the price you pay i don't understand how this could be less than good in anyone's books. The common room, kitchen and reception are all joined but this helps create the atmosphere and encourages interaction. Each staff member plays there own music on shift so you get a variety of their taste in music.

The male staff was friendly! Some of the girls working behind the desk could stand to be a litter nicer. But other than the female staff, the hostel was good value for your money. It was cheap, one of the cheapest yet it was a lot of fun. Everyone is always hanging out in the lobby becuase thats where the wifi is, but its good because it causes people to talk more. Great Value for money, one of my favorites

Staff were fantastic! Definitely value for money. My only issue was having only one key for the room which stayed in the room so it meant the door was open all the time

Cant complain with this place. Beds and showers aren't amazing but they aren't bad either. Common room is a great place to hang out and the people staying there/staff are generally really cool. Overall I loved it!

Very loud at all hours of the night, both from a music event outside as well as from the living room of the hostel 2 stories down. Very cheap rates, the staff were friendly, and the location was great.

It has a great atmosphere, and its a very sociable place in the common area. The breakfast was great for those on a budget. Reasonably clean. If you get a chance go on the bike tour, there's leaflets at reception!

Sleeping on weekends is almost impossible. There is a pub which is perfect if you want part, but really annoying if you want to rest after a day of turism. The bathrooms and showers weren't very clean. The staff is very nice and let you leave your luggage all the time you like.

Nice clean hostel, one stop on the train from central berlin, 15 minute walk. It has a small cafe and bar attached and the option to pay for breakfast. Found it hard to meet people but in general a nice hostel
