“You get what you pay for”

Trying to find the Hotel was a problem but we got there eventually thanks to two Policeofficers who gave us a lift! The hotel is basic but had everything we needed. The room we had was very big and had a lovely balcony. It is situated on a busy road and as it was very warm we had to keep windows open. This was a problem overnight as it was noisy. They really should invest in air conditioning!! Lots of shops/restaurants nearby and a ins walk to rail station. The one minus is that I would like to have been nearer central Berlin

“At best a place to lay your head”

An interesting experience. During my whole time there I never met anyone - except the serving staff at the breakfast bar in the restaurant at the bottom of the building (which BTW was pretty good). Your key is presented to you after you electronically identify yourself and without the aid of lights (I arrived at night) and with very poor signage (irrespective of the lighting level) I took quite a while to locate the floor I was on leave aside the room I was in. Once inside the accommodation was very basic but quite adequate and probably value for money int eh circumstance. While the attractions are a bit of a walk from the accommodation - they are not so far as to be a deterrent. There is good supermarket shopping nearby and a number of good restaurants. If it's convenience, no bother and bit of isolation you are seeking - look no further.

“Basic hotel, good location, staff speak zero English.”

Arrived at this hotel late at night after a nine hour train journey to find check in was on a machine, a machine which did not recongise my booking. Fustrated I contacted several numbers, all of which would not connect until there was one number that did. I was told to wait five minutes and fifteen… more

Arrived at this hotel late at night after a nine hour train journey to find check in was on a machine, a machine which did not recongise my booking. Fustrated I contacted several numbers, all of which would not connect until there was one number that did. I was told to wait five minutes and fifteen minutes later a flustered looking man arived to check us in. Speaking the most basic English and me speaking only basic German it was extremely difficult to communicate with staff during our stay. The hotel is in a very good location and the facilities of kitchen and bathroom are great. Except there are no cooking trays in the kitchen. (Sounds picky but when you buy chicken to cook and then have to use a saucepan, its fustrating.) Clean and basic, excellent value for money.
