Cheap but would not recommend it
I needed a cheap place to spend few hours after arriving in Tegel Airport half past 10pm and before my train to Hildesheim at 4am. This hostel is walkable from Berlin Hbf. The reception is at the third floor. The lift is going under renovation for a week so that means I have to carry my heavy luggage walking up the stairs. I was glad that a man who was also going up with a luggage offered to help carry mine. I profusely thanked him until we reached the reception and later found out that he is the receptionist. My room was in the 4th floor and this time I had to carry my luggage. That was fine. In the early morning, another man was in the reception. I politely asked for two things: (1) to book me a taxi and (2) to assist me with my luggage. He would only do (1). He reasoned that he cannot leave the reception. Unlike when I arrived where it was full with young people drinking and chatting, there were nobody else in the reception except us. I was utterly disappointed. But in the end, he was obliged to help me since the taxi would come in 1-2 minutes. It would took me couple more minutes if I had to carry it myself. So, was still thankful. There should have been an advisory that the lift isn't working. Had I known it, I wouldn't book this in the first place. The toilets and showers are very dirty. Hallways are also noisy. I couldn't even sit up in the bed and I'm only 1.5m tall. There are better hostels which are cleaner, more comfortable beds and also cheap

We booked a double room with private bathroom and was pleasantly surprised by the size of the room. Staff was friendly and helpful. The corridor to the hostel door looked shady when we were first trying to locate the hostel, but we were glad the hostel turned out fine. There's also a convenience store nearby which was great.

Nice hostel. Clean and safe. My first hostel experience and won't be my last. Only reason for 4 stars is it isn't very social. Not the hostels fault, but the common room has no atmosphere and not many of the people staying were open to conversation. Also only had 2 female toilets and 2 showers for the whole floor. So trying to get a shower in the morning could take a while.

Bedroom and locker were good. Sitting area near reception good to chill out and eat food. Could probably get quite busy though in peak times. Couple of seats and tables outside the bedrooms aswell which was quite handy. Kitchen very small and limited appliances. Fridge was packed full and it was fairly quiet when i went. Only one urinal and one toilet for all the floor which was just not enough. Only 2 showers also.
