Relaxed place to stay. Good location. A short walk to the station then very frequent S Bahn trains into the centre, usually AlexandraPlatz for me. An easy walk to the East Side Gallery. Gave the opportunity to explore the area around the hostel. Facilities were good. Plenty of bathrooms so never had to wait. Always clean. Free cereal and coffee was excellent, leading to a nice relaxed start to the day. I would definitely stay there again.

I loved my time here! Perfect location, incredibly sweet staff (knew me by name, actively wanted to know about the guests, happily accommodated my changing schedule), free cookies, tea, and coffee, and the communal spaces are wonderfully festive and peaceful. Plenty of private bathrooms, which is rare in smaller hostels. I do wish the bunk beds were slightly bigger for taller guests and offered more privacy.

Could not recommend enough! Extremely friendly check in staff and lots of places to socialise with other travellers. LOTS of free amenities like shampoo, towels (nice surprise for a hostel), cookies, tea, coffee, cereal, sanitary supplies, the list goes on. Lovely vibe overall. Not too far from public transport (about 5 mins to bus stop and 10 to train station). The only drawback I have is the graffiti on the front door gives a bit of a bad first impression; inside is nothing like that though!
