Stayed for 2 nights on our first visit to Berlin. Tricky to find main entrance as upgrade work being done requiring directions to another door. Initially we had doubts about this hotel as had reasonably heavy luggage and were offered no physical assistance -but found the most antiquated small lift we have ever seen! However amazingly it worked. Had diffuculty unlocking the door to our room with again a very antiquated key and lock, which also seemed very insecure from the inside so actually placed a suitcase against the door at night. The room itself was fresh clean and tidy with a small balcony overlooking street. Comfortable bed. Breakfast good.
A major downside was a large school group from? Scandinavia who created mayhem overnight both nights we were there - shouting thumping slamming doors moving furniture around (on the floor above us) so much so that fittings in our room shook. That went on until after 0200 and no one appeared to do anything about it.

The room was very nice, clean and roomy, and clearly was renewed lately. it has no fridge and no safety-deposit box and that was frustrating. As well, there was no AC but we could manage. The hotel's breakfast was very good.
The staff includes those who were more helpful and those who were challenged to speak English.
For those of you who expect to find wild, young nightlife, clubs etc. by the hotel- there is no. there are several small and nice pubs, occupied mostly by elders. we heard a cab to the east side (the more smashing area) can be expensive, and metro ends at 1 am :(

Decent hotel, although it's not really in a very bustling or happening area of Berlin. It is in the nicer area of Berlin, which is great. However, nightlife is a good 20-30 Euro cab ride away, if you're not prepared to take the metro. Lots of great restaurants around the place though. Staff weren't particularly nice but still helped you out, although at times I didn't feel very welcomed. Hotel itself has a special charm about it; rooms are decently sized, with comfy beds. Rooms get VERY warm during the day. Overall, very decent hotel considering the price. Recommended for people who don't want to stay in a hostel, but don't want to fork out hundreds of Euros for a stunning hotel.

I liked this hotel. It has a good location and staff was friendly and nice. It is good value for a 3-star in Berlin and you have plenty of restaurants near by. It has no bar, but there are bars nearby and I never like hotelbars anyway. Rooms were clean and the beds comfortable.
