Pod units are good.

I stayed in a pod unit. I found the mattress too thin but otherwise it was quite comfortable. The separate showers a toilets were clean and bright. There were several common areas to sit. If you go bring a lock, towel , and slippers.

Ich habe in einer Space Kapsel geschlafen, es war alles super sauber, hier ein LOB an das Reinigungspersonal. Man muss hierbei erwähnen, das es URLAUBER gibt die Toiletten oder Duschen nach der Benutzung SEHR DRECKIG hinterlassen, keine RÜCKSICHT (auch den Lärmpegel betreffend) auf andere nehmen und das fällt leider zu UNRECHT auf das Hostel zurück. Im Hostel wird ein Frühstück angeboten zum kleinen Preis, es gibt ein separates Cafe und eine Bar. Zur Selbstversorgung, gibt es ein Supermarkt und eine Drogerie um die Ecke. Das Personal vom Hostel und der Bar habe ich sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit erlebt. Die Space Kapsel ist ein Erlebnis, man hat die Möglichkeit auf Privatsphäre und sie ist technisch voll ausgestattet (Steckdosen/ USB Anschlüsse, Klima und Licht). Das Hostel liegt sehr zentral und man kommt schnell mit den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln, zu allen Sehenswürdigkeiten/ Shoppen ect. in Berlin. Was man verbessern kann: 1. Es gibt eine Behindertentoilette aber leider ohne Dusche. 2. In den Räumlichkeiten der Space Kapseln, gibt es keinen Fön. 3. Es kam vor das man an der Rezeption länger warten musste, wenn sie nur mit einer Person besetzt war.

The hostel itself (room, check-in etc) was excellent. However, the courtyard that our room, and many others, faced down onto played very loud music from around 7:00 each morning which resulted in two terrible sleeps.

Perfect location, close to everything. I stayed in a pod which wasn’t so bad. It was just very hot overall, the fan in the pod didn’t work as well. Also had an issue with the drying machine. After 4 hours of having my clothes in the dryer, they still did not dry. The employee at the reception ended up having to dry my clothes separately where they dry their sheets because it was already 2am and my clothes were all still wet.
