Lovely place to stay - close to public transport and a grocery store nearby - loved that there was a little kitchenette in the room. As it's next to the railway line there is regular noise from trains - and there were building works opposite - however earplugs did the trick. In every other way it was a very comfortable and convenient place - would stay again.

Good location, cosy rooms with value for money, especially with the private kitchen. If you are a light sleeper I would suggest you go somewhere else, as the rooms are quite noisy with the trains going by plus a very persistent ventilation just above the bed. At least in my room. But if not - go for it!

The kitchen + the dishwater all included are truly a gems in this apartment TV compatible bluetooth Ground floor has its pro and cons, like direct access to the street (be careful for insecure times), some insects can enter the apartment and crawl to the bed. Air conditioning half-working. Sometimes the wall is soundproof but we can still the neighboors door bangs or the neighboors' showers

The hotel is nice and clean. The windows and storm windows do a good job of blocking light and sound which was key for my jet lag! The hotel is near an area with homeless people but none of them bothered me. I enjoyed the scooters being easily accessible from the hotel.

I had a great stay here! I initially booked for 5 nights but ended up extending for another 3 nights. The studio was very spacious, very clean and had a small kitchenette for basic cooking. The staff were super friendly and helpful. The location was very convenient walking distance to a few attractions and also very close to the train station. Would definitely stay again especially for long term stays!

Everything was amazing, only slight downside was I was lucky/unlucky enough to be staying in Berlin during a heatwave, so the lack of air conditioning made it difficult to sleep, but generally any other time this wouldn’t be an issue. The facilities were fantastic and the staff very helpful, I’d definitely stay again.

Room was clean, new and stayed cool even during hot weather. It had everything including a kitchen but it was tiny. I booked a room with a terrace / outdoor seating but it was on the ground floor facing the bike parking, so I never used it and kept the curtains closed. Location was great, only 2 mins walk to the cool riverside area with cafes and bars.

Nice new very clean hotel at a decent price. Very well run with very helpful friendly staff. A youthful trendy vibe. The only drawbacks are the immediate area around is pretty dead. Residential, dark, and quiet. Also there is a large railway line right next to the hotel which is noisy. And its a low energy building, which is great, but there was no air con in my room. It wasnt unbearably hot or anything, but it wasnt cool either.

Nice stay with small kitchenette and clean bathroom. Bed was not comfy and rock solid unfortunately. Very loud outside due to the train station next door so you can’t leave the windows open due to the noise. Since it was very hot during our stay it was quite uncomfortable sleeping as there is no aircon and too loud to open the windows. Not enough toiletries too. Overall okay stay, was near the train station and east side gallery but could have been a lot better.

It was a very good stay. Unfortunately the first night was not good because it was very hot in the room so I had to ask for a fan. It would’ve been better service if they had just provided a fan to begin with considering the heat and no air conditioning in rooms. I also had to ask for another pillow as the one they provided was too small. Once I had the fan and pillow I had a very good stay. There is a building site in front of the building but don’t fret, the sound proof windows and shutters work well. Very good location to access trains and walkable to city centre.

New hotel, noisy environment and super firm bed

The hotel is new and offers some great amenities and the staff tries to be helpful. However, the noise level from the S-Bahn is high and every S-Bahn passing by will be heard from the room - from the early morning til the late night. The mattresses are super hard, and after I asked for a more softer mattress, I only got a 0.5cm thick topping for the mattress - not that helpful. Needless to say sleep was an issue - and that is the most important aspect of the hotel. Otherwise, the hotel is very clean, good amenities and well situated in central Berlin.

I like that it's very affordable and closed to Berlin Ostbahnhof. The apartment studio is clean and new but there are a few inconvenient things. The door is hard to open, I had to ask the receptionist for help. The hot water from the shower is not very stable. There was no wifi instruction, I had to look it up myself under the router. The curtain is too thin it cannot block all the light. I found out later that there is a button to deploy thicker curtain. The surrounding area is convenient but a bit dirty because of ongoing construction and felt be a bit unsafe at night.

Seemed new, everything. Best value, if it still happens to be then I'd definitely return again. Balcony, kitchen etc. nice lobby bar café with nice drinks and vegan options. Not too far from the station to the airport, Deutschland pass. Walkable to East side gallery Berlin wall art and Alexanderplatz. Cheaper than hostels etc. the outdoor bar café area opposite the road is nice but hardly open, again good vegan options there and drinks. Nice staff. Lots of entrance doors and elevators. The door to the room has the most complicated lock ever, I'm tiny and struggled at first but the staff helped me, unsure if I locked it properly again but it's safe. As it's upscale it's the equivalent of a 4* hotel, good reviews. Safe since the people there are rich. Rooftop bar wasn't open yet unfortunately so it felt a bit limited. Went to the petrol station nearby to buy drinks. I missed a walking tour through the sister hostel, as there's limited things to do and only way to meet people is in the lobby. I think that there should maybe be better communication between the sister establishments to offer networking opportunities etc as a solo traveller it often felt boring and lonely as difficult to meet people as I don't speak German. It was one of the main things that made it appealing to me when finding it on the website. I should've asked for a better view of the TV tower as I was facing the construction opposite. I liked the electronic blinds and big bathroom, everything is new.
