Estancia agradable y buena situación

Es un albergue de nueva generación en el sentido que ofrece habitaciones individuales y toallas como un hotel pero hay que compartir el baño, que no es un problema ya que hay varios en cada planta y siempre los he encontrado limpios. Además, tuvimos que llamarles por teléfono en dos ocasiones, una por olvidar la contraseña de acceso y otra por alargar la estancia un día más y en ambos casos nos atendieron rápidamente y fueron resolutivos. Hemos estado muy cómodos.

A really nice stay

Very nice stay in a well-connected part of Berlin, very friendly staff who even upgraded me to the ensuite room (even the guys remodeling the lounge were really friendly when I accidentally wound up there), and convenient breakfast location. If I had any things to make people aware of beforehand, it's that I didn't see a lift, so be ready to climb stairs particularly if you're on one of the higher floors.

The price was way too high for how dirty and old it was. The place was extremely smelly and underconstruction. Our hotel staff gave us a room that was not cleaned and still has previous guest's trash in it

Ich hatte ein Einzelzimmer mit Bad auf dem Flur, alles war picobello sauber. Die Küche schien mir gut ausgestattet, man hätte sich selbst verpflegen können. Das habe ich aber nicht in Anspruch genommen. Einzige Kritik: Im Zimmer gab es keine Steckdose in der Nähe des Betts. Trotzdem: empfehlenswert! Und die Lage ist topp, man ist ruckzuck überall im Prenzlauer Berg, ÖPNV-Anbindung auch sehr gut.
