Disliked: They have bed bugs in Rm 709!! Gross! Also the ensuite shower leaked all over the floor and left a mini lake for the next person. No wifi in rooms, it is only in lobby

30 October 2011 Kristin would recommend this property

Liked: The hostel is nice with nice big rooms and great showers. It is nice & close to the train station...although neither our train in or out went from that station. There are good connections via s-bahn, u-bahn or other trains though. If you arrive at night the walk to the hostel can seem a little sketchy but it's a perfectly safe area.

Disliked: Paying for breakfast always sucks, especially when it's only a continental breakfast.
