Like all of Berlin — In theory its cool. But it's also overhyped, lacking substance & probably too hip for its own good. The hotel is a cool-looking place, with some good, low-cost design elements. The furnishings are kind of cheap-retro. The rooms are stapled together from plywood. But it works. It's fine. The staff are all super young and hip, but seem disinterested. A lot of them don't seem to know what's going on or what they're doing. It's in the middle of a cool area. But still, it's not a value-for-money kind of option. It's pretty expensive for what it is. For some reason, there is 500-decibel music playing at breakfast. Maybe the DJ from the courtyard the night before just hadn't had enough of ruining the opportunity for guests to relax and chat with one another. "We're going to block the amount for the room on your credit card. But don't worry, we ARE NOT charging it to your card."... They charged it to my card and I ended up paying twice. A member of the bar staff seemed to quit mid-shift. As a result, we waited 25 minutes for a glass of wine, even though there were as many staff wandering around as there were guests sitting in the courtyard. As you'll see from other reviews: there is no air conditioning, and the rooms are super hot. I don't find this too bad. But it's a thing, for sure. It's an ok hotel. You can definitely pay the same price to stay somewhere quieter and more hotel, less hostel. But then you might miss out on the joy of being served a locally sourced vegan toasty by a kid with a face tattoo. When in Berlin........
