Reviews of Helter Skelter Hostel

06 February 2012 Luana would recommend this property

Liked: O hostel é muito bom e está situado em um lugar privilegiado de Berlim de faci acesso. O lobby é muito gostoso de estar, com internet wi-fi e computador free por alguns minutos. Não há lockers em alguns quartos e os banheiros não são super limpos. Há uma balada em baixo do hostel que faz muito barulho, mas não chega a ser insuportável. Eu recomendo por ser perto de tudo e ter uma atmosfera bem legal.

Disliked: Luana left no negative feedback.

16 November 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: I loved the location. I also liked how we ended up getting a couple nice big bathrooms to ourselves down the hall (but that may just be because it was relatively empty). The showers were really nice and the bathrooms were very clean. I also liked the nutella packets they provided with the free breakfast.

Disliked: I thought it was really weirdly laid out and kind of dingy. The kitchen was right in the middle of the common room so it would be somewhat awkward to make meals there. Although some of the staff were very nice and helpful, there was one staff member who wasn't very welcoming or friendly. Also, you had to share a single key for an entire room.

12 November 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: It wasn't hard to find from the S-bahn and there was plenty of shopping and food around it. And a theater.

Disliked: The lockers were outside of the rooms and there was only one key per room so if someone locked you out it could be difficult to get in.

04 October 2011

Liked: Location is the only appealing thing about this hostel

Disliked: It's dirty and very noisy until 5am, several of the staff are unhelpful and unfriendly, the showers leak, the bedsheets do not fit - it's generally in a state and badly looked after. It's not a good place to stay, find somewhere else.

Disliked: Nothing special

24 July 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: The hostel is really close to the main station in Freidrichstrasse so doesn't take more than about ten minutes to walk there. This also means it is really central for all the main sites in Berlin, including bars and clubs too. The atmosphere of the hostel was casual and welcoming with a young feel and good music playing. The breakfast was a brilliant deal and there was always hot water!!

Disliked: The only issue I had with the accommodation was the kitchen was also a smoking area, but that's probably just cause I'm English, apart from that it was wicked.

08 July 2011 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: It is close to the train station and the main street (it's known to be touristy). They sell alcohol in the reception area.

Disliked: Everyone smoked in the reception area and it would smell all the way down the hallway. I don't smoke so it was a little suffocating for me.
