Nice and easy check-in. Even easier check out. Right near the U8 line and multiple tram lines to get around town.
The only downfall of room 201 was the first bunks seen when opening the door; the top bunk has a bad mattress (springs are too worn) and the USB charging ports don’t function.

Clean, comfortable and quiet
Booked a quiet, comfortable and spacious single room for four nights. The shared bathroom was clean and never busy. The staff were friendly and very helpful, especially with questions about getting around Berlin. There wasn’t a guest kitchen but there was a free breakfast buffet from 8am until 1pm daily.

Great location of Berlin, clean modern room, balcony for people watching. Only opportunity for improvement would be the temperature of the room (a little warm for sleeping).
