Singer109 Hostel

Nothing. All was great

Das Personal war unfreundlich und nicht wirklich hilfsbereit. Die Zimmer waren sehr dunkel. Die dusche hat ständig zwischen heisss ( ich hab mich fast verbrennt) und kalt geswitcht. Ganz schlimm.

La ubicación no es tan céntrica

Nothing was perfect

Mein 8-Bett-Zimmer musste ich leider mit betrunkenen Hilfsarbeitern teilen.

My stay had some unpleasant events. I had to change the room after the first night because of dirt and smell. I got a room that, as it turned out, someone changed just like me the same night. So the hotel staff threw me into another "problematic" room. They knew exactly why this other person left it. So why did the staff have moved me just there? Another thing: I was not allowed to sit down on the patio in the late evening, because of the "quiet hours". Everything ok, the rule is the rule. But the problem is that about six people were already sitting there - privileged as you can see. They were in the group, talking. I was alone. They could be there, I didn't. Why? I think that the hotel staff leaves a lot to be desired, except one lady at the bar, who was very very nice :)

Very clean and good location

Manche Zimmer (z.B. 318) ist einfach Horror. Kartenschloss ist kaputt und man kommt nicht ins Zimmer, Dusche muss dringend saniert/repariert werden. Auf mein Hinweis wegen Schloss haben sich die Mitarbeiter nur lediglich entschuldigt und nix weiter gemacht....

Everyone in Europe smokes, including in this hostel, to be fair they keep it to an isolated area, but every time you come through the side entrance you cop a mouthful (a minor thing, but impacts me given I come from a country where smoking is in the minority). The lockers (whilst very spacious and convenient) don't seem to take a conventional lock (not even a simple padlock) and if my room wasn't empty for the majority of my stay there I would have been anxious about leaving my possessions in the room. Also the card to my room didn't work on several occasions and I kept having to get it reset at reception, which was a mild inconvenience. Compared to other hostels I have stayed in I felt that it didn't quite have the community vibe. There were very few organised tours or pub crawls or social events where you could meet other travelers. That's fine if you don't want to meet people, but when you are traveling solo sometimes it is nice to have the option. My six-person room was empty for 3 of 4 nights (both a blessing and a curse), so it could have been seasonal but felt that most people were staying in their private rooms rather than the shared rooms. These aren't huge dealbreakers and it was nice to have some downtime and catch up on sleep without anyone snoring or having night terrors. Location is also a bit out of the way and not really near anything of historical importance, I like walking so this isn't a dealbreaker for me and in fact loved the extra exercise in the wonderful Berlin weather, but could see how others may find this annoying.

The beds were not extremely comfortable, but well... it was a cheap hostel, so it was a small drawback. Not necessarily close to any train stations, but only 15 min from Alexanderplatz, so it wasn't a big deal.

Bin in the bathroom could be a lot bigger (the bathroom next to the 6-bed room) No security check at all for luggage in the storage room, and no safe to store valuables

Nicht,alles hervorragend

I think the only thing missing was a mirror in the toilet of the room!

Walls are pretty think so it was a bit noisy - but hey, it's a hostel :)

Windows of the room are close to the opposite office windows. You have to keep your curtains closed. Because of big atrium it was a bit noisy in the room.

Todo me gustó! Un 100 para todo!

Un baño y una ducha no son suficientes para 8 personas, especialmente cuando todos despiertan temprano. / One shower and one WC are not enough for a room for 8 people, specially when everybody wakeup at the same time in the mornings!

No estaria mal que tuvieran más opciones para comer y cenar.
