Fantastic stay near Alexanderplatz!

convenient locationhigh quality amenitiesincorrect information
I stayed near Alexanderplatz station, it was just a 5-minute walk! The location is super convenient and very quiet. The airport is easily accessible from Alexanderplatz station. The room was spacious, new, and clean. all the amenities felt really high quality. The staff were kind and helpful.
The online help provided some incorrect information outside reception hours. The info booklet mentioned breakfast at 7:00 AM, so I planned my day accordingly, but the restaurant was closed when I arrived at 8:00 AM. I also had trouble getting laundry service.
Dining

Though breakfast is not directly in the hotel, various cafes serve breakfast nearby, though some open rather late, around 10 or 11 am. The location offers several restaurants and food stores within a short walk, excellent. There are many options available.

No breakfast is available at this hotel. The problem is the cafe shops open so late! Around 10 or 11 am. It is annoying no free refreshments are available.
