amazing stay! fantastic!

excellent locationspacious roomclosed sauna
I loved the excellent location, near the märkisches museum underground station! it made getting around so easy. the spacious room was spotlessly clean, i really appreciated the fan. I didn't even need to use it because the window was so big.
The sauna was closed two of the three days i was there! this wasn't communicated in advance. the last evening, the sauna was open, but the steam room wasn't working. So frustrating!
