Summary of traveller reviews

Generator Berlin Alexanderplatz offers a vibrant atmosphere and a fantastic central location, perfect for travellers looking to explore the city. While many guests praise the friendly staff and social vibe, some recent reviews highlight recurring issues with cleanliness in bathrooms and a lack of air conditioning, making rooms uncomfortably hot. It's best suited for younger travellers and groups seeking a lively stay.

The place is nasty, hot and the facilities poorly taken care of. There was a constant smell of garbage outside the elevators, no staff to clean spilled beer or sweep the floors (a pair of shorts were discarded at a hallway and stayed there all throughout my stay. Half the bathroom stall don't close, tables were dirty and the people at the bar could not care less. Keycard did not work half the time. The place is cheap but not worth it.

Hostelworld says

If location is important to you, Generator Berlin Alexanderplatz is your place. A nice hostel close to most of the top Berlin attractions, including the Fernsehturm, the Rotes Rathaus and the Marx-Engels Forum. The hostel also takes decor very seriously, with a hip, funky interior design that'll get you into the mood for making new friends and some lively hostel partying. There is a cheap breakfast buffet on offer every morning, and entertainment almost every evening, perfect for breaking the ice in a new city.
