The hostel ambiance was lovely, it gives you a Berlin vide. The rooms were clean and quite, I met very good people there which are my friends now. The location of this hostel is great, nice area, close to at least three U-bahn and couple of M-Tram.

This is the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in! A wide bed with a comfortable mattress and pillow, a bright and spacious 8-bed room, and a towel provided free of charge. Clean toilets and showers with no queues, a super-comfortable kitchen with everything you need — even a dishwasher. There’s also a laundry area where you can wash and dry your clothes. The staff are incredibly friendly and accommodating — they even let me check in early at no extra cost. I was working during my trip and really appreciated the chance to work at a separate desk on the second floor, in almost complete silence, which made it easy to hold meetings comfortably. The bus stop to the airport is right outside the hostel’s door, and there are plenty of bars and shops just a short walk away — absolute delight!

I really enjoyed my stay at this hostel. The location was excellent — close to both bus and train stations, and there was a grocery store right next door. The room was comfortable and had everything I needed. The staff were incredibly kind and friendly. I would highly recommend this hostel to anyone looking to enjoy their time in Berlin.❤️

I loved the ambience, aesthetic and the cleanliness of this place. The washrooms and bathrooms were amazing because they had thick walls and locked doors and generally everything was kept nice and clean. Me and my friend came here because of the cool looks, but turns out it is a good and a convenient place to stay altogether. Very happy about our visit! It's a good spot too, very close to a shopping street that brings you to unter den linden. Lidl was next door. The lobby had vending machines. Staff was friendly. I definitely recommend this and I feel like I want to come back here again if I have the chance.

I had modified expectations for our stay, given that this is a "hostel". I assumed the rooms would be miniscule and only just "ok". The bed was excellent (if you like a firm bed... if not, you're in trouble!), the shower was fantastic, everything was impeccably clean. We slept with the windows open and the fan going every night, which we were nervous of initially given the city location. We weren't disturbed by any noise at night, either from within the hostel or outside. I also didn't realize that breakfast was included with the rate, so that was a happy discovery! Honestly, this was the sixth and last place that we stayed in on our three weeks away, and it was honestly one of the best. No notes.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

I stayed in a pod and it was the right option for solo travelers on dormitory budget, with the advantage of having a bit more privacy and isolating yourself from other people's snoring. You get access to a locker and 5 shared toilets and showers. Breakfast could have been more generous. It was ok but could do much better in terms of the variety of things. Great location in Mitte. Right in front of Tram station and 3-5 minute walk from U-bahn and S-bahn station

Amazing hostel! Everything was clean, tidy and organised. Great location, close to heaps of restaurants. Lots of fridge space, big kitchen and multiple sitting areas. They also host heaps of communal activities which was great for meeting people and are big on being quiet at night and respecting peoples sleep. Couldn't recommend any higher

Very clean hostel in an old fine house. The location was better than I expected, just one subway away. The bunk beds are wide and really sturdy. High, safe railings. My own bed was with a green view by a beautiful, high arched window.

EastSeven is truly one of the best hostels I’ve stayed at. Things I liked about it were: - Super friendly staff members that gave great recommendations and were always around to help - Spacious rooms with comfy beds - Easy to use kitchen and fridge space - Great, safe location (close to train station, cute neighbourhood, walking distance to city) - Activities every night run by the team (eg dinner night, board games, drinking games, etc) - Great outdoor area for chatting with other people in the hostel
