  • 5/5 Roberto Babaran J. 9 months ago on Google • 147 reviews
    I had an amazing time at this hostel. It is very well kept and clean from the washrooms to the kitchen to the room itself everything is very well maintained, systematic, and orderly. The shower facilities are very modern and even have bidets. In the rooms the lockers are quite large and each bed also has its own safe for personal valuables. The kitchen was stocked with a ton of necessities such as oil and spices and I found a lot of the other people living at the hostel were open to socializing in the kitchen at night as a kind of replacement to the common room. The 2 men that run the facilities are very friendly and helpful in making recommendations about what to visit in the city. Make sure to email or call them in advance to let them know when you intend to arrive as sometimes the facility isn't meant 24/7 like other hostels in Europe might be.

    Not the best hostel around by any stretch of the imagination, however for the price it is unbeatable. Rooms are nothing fancy but are quite adiquet. Bathrooms are quite good, with good water pressure in the showers. There are only 5 rooms in total, so it's quite small but this also gives it a very friendly atmosphere. Guests often sit around in the kitchen around meal times and mingle.

    Did not feel like a hostel at all. The building is in a very central spot, yet quite. The nearest bus stop is less than 5 minutes and the tram is also about 5 minutes away. Our room was small but you don't need anything more. The room was very clean. The bathrooms were also very clean. I love that there was a kitchen for all to use. And it has everything from pots to pans, cutlery, plates and mugs, a fridge and even spices and other ingredients for all to use. The owners/staff were very friendly and helpful. Towels as well as bedding were provided. If you are looking to go to Berlin and want to book accommodation, I definitely reccommend booking here!

    Such a warm and kind host, the rooms were more spacious than I thought, the mattresses super cozy and the bathrooms clean. Great central location, amazing restaurants and bars everywhere around, quiet neighborhood and the same vibe it's in the hostel too. The experience depends on the other guests as well cuz not all of them clean after themselves so, there were good but also bad days. If sometimes one bathroom wasn't clean after someone used it, I could go to the other ones. But this has nothing to do with the hostel, the hosts shouldn't be responsible to clean after these irresponsible people. Luckily there weren't so many like this so the experience wasn't affected much by this. There were also discount cards at the entrance for museums and activities which was such a nice surprise, we used a 2 for 1 for the Technical Museum. I highly recommend this hostel for quiet, kind and respectful people ✌🏼

    I stayed at the eastener in the month of March and we could not have a better experience. The place is more than right for the price (don't expect luxuries), it is fantastically located and its staff offers incredible attention. The last day I lost my documentation at the airport, so I could not take the flight and I was completely alone in Berlin. I contacted the hostel again and had a completely humane treatment with a lot of facilities. Without a doubt, it will be my reference accommodation every time I visit Berlin. Thank you very much from Spain

    Couldn't ask for a better first stop on my trip of the continent. The host was incredibly polite, helpful, with great English. Hostel was equipped with anything you could ever need, with a fantastic location.

  • 3/5 Roux A. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Stay in a double room, room ok, bedding clean. Clean bathroom acceptable. Street however noisy and mattress a bit hard. Together more than correct for the price and location (near station Hbf and city center). Very friendly staff. 'Auberge' ideal for a stay at lower cost. (Original) Sejour en chambre double, chambre correct, literie propre. Proprete de sdb acceptable. Rue cependant bruyante et matelas un peu dur. Ensemble plus que correct pour le prix et la localisation (proche gare Hbf et centre ville). Personnel très sympathique. 'Auberge' idéal pour un sejour a moindre frais.

  • 3/5 Joan P. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Correct hostel is not a holiday hostel and there are only 3 rooms, it is very quiet. (Original) Hostal correcte, no es un hostal de festa i hi ha només 3 habitacions, es molt tranquil.

  • 4/5 Viktor A. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The hostel is in a good location on Torstrasse, not far from the city center. The staff is also very helpful and friendly. Hostel is a bit cramped and small, and the bathroom could be a bit cleaner. Value for money is great (Original) Das Hostel ist in einer guten Lage an der Torstraße, unweit vom Stadtzentrum. Das Personal ist auch sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Hostel ist etwas eng und klein, und das Bad könnte etwas sauberer sein. Preisleistungsverhältnis ist aber top

  • 3/5 Davide F. 5 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Good hostel, located five minutes from the train station and the metro stop. Rooms quite spacious, but few bathrooms (two with shower and one without). Owner very exuberant but nice. (Original) Buon ostello, posizionato a cinque minuti dalla stazione dei treni e dalla fermata della metropolitana. Camerate abbastanza spaziose, ma pochi bagni (due con doccia e uno senza). Proprietario molto esuberante ma simpatico.

  • 2/5 J H. 5 years ago on Google
    Centrally located but personally felt that price is bit higher than what you get. Maybe suitable for budget travelers but not ideal for couples. Room was very small and too close to streets.They provide cleaning service but overall hygiene and the room condition could improve better. If you stay here, keep in mind saving clean towels for yourself. During our stay, they didn't stock enough clean towels for the guests so that I had to keep asking staffs for new ones. Although one of them told us that she would bring them later to our room, she never did. When we found out this after the reception closing hours (they don't operate the reception 24 hours), I called owner asking where I could find clean towels. He said they were out of clean ones and offered us to use other set of towels that they normally use for cleaning..(he insisted that he washed them at 100 degrees....). We didn't feel like using them for our body, so we ended up using the same towels for our entire stay. Overall our experience wasn't really pleasant.

  • 1/5 ADRIANA CAROLINA ALVARADO T. 1 year ago on Google
    This people doesn’t accept you to check in before 10am and we where in the train station since 6 am, then when we arrive at 10:30 nobody opened the door, so we spent like 1 hour more, they don’t care about your time and nothing, is the worst hosteI have been

  • 5/5 Udo W. 2 years ago on Google
    A very good location in Berlin, clean, and newly renovated, there is a large family room with its own bathroom in the room. The hostel has no comming room but a nice kitchen. You can cook there yourself, everything is available. Coffee and tea and sugar is free for the guests which is really great. Each guest has their own safe in the room and a socket with 2 USB connections near the bed, so you don't need an adapter for the power supply. There is no full-time reception in the hostel, but check-in is very easy if the staff is not there. It is important to confirm your arrival time, then the staff will also be there when you arrive.

  • 5/5 Lander D. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice, calm, clean, and located in a great neighborhood, and next to the city center. The staff were incredibly kind, they're just like a family. I would repeat!

  • 5/5 Adam R. 1 year ago on Google
    Small hostel, I liked it. Good location.

  • 5/5 Kate M. 6 years ago on Google
    Would recommend this hostel to any backpackers in small or larger groups. The hostel itself was really nice with clean, bright rooms, comfy beds and decent bathrooms. It was brilliantly equipped with a common room to meet fellow travellers with luggage lockers and a kitchen with anything you'd need. It was also in a great location not far from the wall centre and central Berlin. The staff were friendly - the owner is lovely and knew some great spots in the city as well as being proactive in helping you with quick train routes etc. He had links to local businesses and had discount vouchers for attractions. Other travellers were really friendly and staff tended to let you get on with it.

  • 5/5 Carolin T. 6 years ago on Google
    The private room I booked was small and had no wardrobe/place for clothes, but it was modern, clean and comfortable nevertheless. The price and the location REALLY couldn't be beat and as I mentioned everything was clean and orderly. It's in a great, quiet residential street but just around the corner restaurants and other things to do. Tim is also a great guy! Would stay here again!! Things to note: there is NO breakfast for purchase and it's not a party hostel (a plus for me and my friend).

  • 5/5 Micah S. 7 years ago on Google
    Good location, easy access to the public transport system. The hostel itself was clean and with welcoming staff. We had been accidentally overbooked but upgraded to a private room for no extra cost! Excellent heating as well.

  • 5/5 Sergey K. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) The hostel reminded me of our hostel from a theater-goer in Odessa. The front desk is open only a few hours a day, and then do what you want. Each bed has its own outlet, charger and safe. To the center on foot for 20 minutes. (Original) Хостел напомнил мне нашу общагу от театралки, в Одессе. Ресепшн работает всего несколько часов в день, а потом делай что хочешь. У каждой кровати есть своя розетка, зарядное и сейф. До центра пешком минут 20.

    I stayed here when I visited Berlin from Edinburgh. Very nice staff, clean and welcoming also in a very central location, 5 minutes walk from Friedrichstrasse Railway Station..

  • 5/5 Thomas C. 6 years ago on Google
    The location is good to go around the main places in Berlin, useful info and recommendations were given by the host, Matt, which is such a cool guy. Services and facilities are good enough, I really liked the showers. My suggestion for the hostel administration is to have hand soap in the WC, it's the only little flaw I detected.

  • 4/5 Vegan S. 5 years ago on Google
    Very small. 3 rooms. Quiet which I like cuz I’m not a party animal. If u looking for party hostel with pub crawls every evening then this is not the place. Owner very nice. I like the kitchen I cooked a big meal without issues. I like how close it is to everything in Berlin. But I felt like the common room was a lil bit weird. No couch or anything just a bunch of chairs. But it was fine. WiFi was terrible but I didn’t mind but others complained

  • 5/5 Ana De La F. 5 years ago on Google
    Really nice and cozy place, excellent location, and a great relationship price-quality, its owner is really kind and helpful, 10/10 would go again

    This hostel is compact and it has everything you need. The 8-bed bedroom is actually spacious. If you are a budget traveller, you better choose this hotel.

  • 4/5 최용혁 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) kindness. Thorough security, the advantage of having a personal safe. quiet ambience No racism. However, when entering the room, the password was incorrectly informed, so I waited while shaking outside for 30 minutes. The four-person room is also spacious and well-heated. 15 euros per night 4-8 December recommendation. (Original) 친절. 보안 철저, 개인 금고 있는 것이 장점. 조용한 분위기 인종차별 없음. 다만 입실할 때, 비밀번호를 잘못알려줘서 30분동안 밖에서 떨면서 대기함. 4인실 방도 넓고 난방도 잘 됐음. 1박에 15유로 12월 4일-8일 추천.

  • 5/5 Thanasis K. 4 years ago on Google
    A perfect stay there! Although it is a small hostel it is very cosy and clean. The people that work there will make u feel like your home from the first minute. Thwey are really friendly and they will help u with recommendations about Berlin. The location is also really good since it is close to the center but not in a not very exoensive neighborhood.

  • 5/5 Angelo D. 5 years ago on Google
    A comfortable experience with excellent service for a tight budget. Really great local advice for food and entertainment. Can't go wrong here as long as you keep the party quiet or outside.

  • 4/5 Lía G. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is a disadvantage that they do not have a 24 hour reception! But it is a very clean and friendly place! Walk 30 minutes to reach the main gate of Berlin. You have super close and cheap. The kitchen is fully equipped, has free tea and coffee (: The beds and pillows are comfortable and it feels like home. (Original) Es una desventaja que no tengan recepción 24hrs! Pero es un lugar muy limpio y amigable! Camina 30 minutos para llegar a la puerta principal de Berlín. Tienes super cerca y económico. La cocina está completamente equipada, tiene té y café gratis (: Las camas y almohadas son cómodas y se vive un ambiente de casa.

    We were staying here for 2 nights and it was very good. The rooms looking nice and clean. The personal is very friendly.

  • 2/5 Liz H. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Price is okay. Room is unfortunately very narrow and it seemed clean for the first time until I found in the closet used dirty towels. Staff is pretty nice. Unfortunately, you really hear everything every step that someone makes and all the discussions, for example, from the kitchen from the toilets. The doors are extremely thin and unfortunately it will not be taken into account, be it guests or employees. Beds are just good but you hardly sleep at the volume levels. (Original) Preis ist okay. Zimmer ist leider sehr eng und es schien erstmals alles sauber bis ich im schrank benutzte dreckige handtücher fand. Personal ist ziemlich nett. Nur leider hört man wirklich alles jeden schritt den jemand macht sowie alle gespräche zb aus der küche aus den toiletten. Die türen sind extrem dünn und leider wird darauf keine rücksicht genommen seien es gäste oder mitarbeiter. Betten sind halt gut aber man bekommt kaum schlaf bei den lautstärken.

    (Translated by Google) The strengths of the structure were: the proximity to the Museumisland to the main points of interest in Berlin; cleaning of dormitories and common areas; the welcome and helpfulness of the host Tim who greeted us with enthusiasm and friendliness swinging, at check-in all the relevant information. Furthermore the structure is well connected with public transport to the rest of the city. The flaws, even if they were minimal, concern the cleaning of the bathrooms and the availability of soap, which for four days were lacking or absent. I advise this structure for those wishing to visit Berlin and return home to relax. I would give 4.5 stars and a half, but it is not possible. (Original) I punti di forza della struttura sono stati: la vicinanza al Museumisland ai principali punti di interesse di Berlino; la pulizia delle camerate e degli ambienti comuni; l'accoglienza e la disponibilità del host Tim che ci ha accolti con entusiasmo e cordialità dondoci, al check-in tutte le informazioni del caso. Inoltre la struttura è ben collegato coi trasporti pubblici al resto della città. Le pecche, che anche se minime ci sono state, riguardano la pulizia dei bagni e alla disponibilità del sapone, che per quattro giorni aono stati carenti o assenti. Cosiglio questa struttura a chi voglia visitare Berlino e al ritorno a casa vogli rilassarsi. Darei 4.5 stelle e mezzo ma, non è possibile.

We have not cleaned the room in 5 days, I do not know if this is normal in the hostel. (Original) Bien ubicado y trato amable.
