This hostel is another happy hapening in Berlin. It has almost all the backpackers need: imaculate cleaness, helpfull staff, maps all over, XL lockers, no curfew, nice bathroom ... but it fails to offer a good service for backpackers: it's a hotel so the breakfast is expensive and the hostels only there because they had the space vacant (as usual in all the hostels-hotels). It's a one room dorm with 26 beds, so you can't iluminate your pasage at night, you can'talk and you risk a symphonic orchestra of snorers...the breakfast is expensive to our tight budgets and the value of the dorm is also overpriced as compared with the much better offers in more central hostels in Berlin.But if you're into new concepts of space, as I am, it can be great: it's an old factory so the interior is not the usual claustrophoby, and promises, if changed in the future, the best space in Berlin.
