"The rooms are small and you wouldn't really hang out there but for a hotel in the city centre when you are in Berlin to sightsee and have two hanger ons (teens) who don't pay their own way, I can only give it 5 stars"

“The location is undeniably prime, placing you in the heart of the action. However, be prepared for a no-frills experience; the minimalist decor and basic amenities reflect its budget-conscious approach. If you prioritize location above all else and plan to spend minimal time in your room, this could be a viable option, but comfort is definitely secondary.”
