A very crowded and noisy street from one side of the hotel, and a railway station from another. VERY NOISY ALL THE TIME!!! Rooms are just boxes. Clean but yet like in jail. More

Chose the hostel/hotel from Late Rooms for 10 people (2 rooms of 5) cost was twenty pounds each per night. Excellent hotel, location was exceptionally good just off the Kurdamm. Breakfast basic continental but cheap and plentiful. Easy access to everywhere from the Zoo station which is only metres away. Area is a little downbeat but excellent bar underneath run... More

The hostel seemed to get a lot of business from groups which... More

The walls are very thin, I could easily the neighbour clearing his throat and he wasn't doing it loudly.The place is rundown, the lobby/bar is very noisy, a young woman at... More
