Clean and newly renovated hostel in a great location on a busy street. I’ve stayed in the two other minimal hostels in Neukölln and this is by far my favourite since they also provide a full kitchen. The children’s play area and step stool for children in the bathrooms was a nice touch. Would have loved it if I was travelling with kids.

If you want to feel that you have a home in Berlin, go to this place. I just loved staying there, the rooms are clean and cozy, the beds are sooo comfortable! There's a common area where tea and snacks are available 24/7, and you can meet great people from all over the world. Nelly, the owner, is really nice and available all the time. Also, small things like sewing stuff and medicine for cold are available (and bicycles, umbrellas and more). If you order breakfast, you'll get the fanciest breakfast ever, with everything you can imagine. The location is 2 min walk from a grocery store, 1 min from the bus stop (with bus that will take you to Ubahn, but you can also walk to the ubahn). I highly recommend this place for everyone ♥️

There are many considerate and thoughtful things this accommodation provided their guests with: hygienic equipment like cotton swabs and pads, heat bottles, free tea, chargers in the common area. I really like it when owners pay attention to all the details and find that important their guests having a fantastic time. Decoration was very elaborated, I liked the bamboos all around, and the design of the rooms was perfect. Rooms were named after the style of the room: ours name was sleeping car, and it looked exactly like a train sleeping car. Close to transportation (tram, train, metro), entertainment facilities, shopping mall, concert halls.

Clean room, clean showers, very nice staff, extremely close to S-bahn, U-bahn and tram. There is choice of fast food offer next to the hostel and there is a shopping mall around the corner. Fair price for a very good breakfast! There is also fair price for private parking in the hostel backyard. All in all, very nice experience for a family of 6.

    I stayed in a pod and it was the right option for solo travelers on dormitory budget, with the advantage of having a bit more privacy and isolating yourself from other people's snoring. You get access to a locker and 5 shared toilets and showers. Breakfast could have been more generous. It was ok but could do much better in terms of the variety of things. Great location in Mitte. Right in front of Tram station and 3-5 minute walk from U-bahn and S-bahn station

They also host heaps of communal activities which was great for meeting people and are big on being quiet at night and respecting peoples sleep. Couldn't recommend any higher
