a&o Hostel Berlin Mitte

3 Heidi M - a week ago

Location was central and room was clean, reception was efficient and helpful. It was extremely loud because there was a large group of young students in the same hall. The hotel tries to keep it quiet after 10 pm, but it's hard to sleep with doors constantly slamming and there is only so much security can do. Good place to stay, but if you want quiet look elsewhere.

i expected the worse because of the reviews but it was actually pretty good!! some people need to keep the small amount of money you pay for a stay in mind like you can’t expect 5 stars hotel stuff. the people at the reception were nice, breakfast was decent. the hotelroom were clean and good for the price. it is small but it wasn‘t bad at all i can recommend this place! there are also always people around at the “bar” which makes it lively (but not loud). also they give free water bottles away at breakfast which is pretty cool

Hostel nicely designed and insulated. Everything was pretty much clean unless the guys we were in the bedroom with were really gross. After throwing the string/panties abandoned on my bed it was fine. You should absolutely not go to this hostel without bed linen/renting the bed linen.

Wish it was half as good as it looks on the outside. Tiny beds, impossible to sleep without hitting places (I’m 5ft). Tiny bathrooms. The only way the 4 people room would hold 4 people is if everyone was lying down. I’ve seen sleeper trains that have more space. It’s hot, windows can’t be opened. So you lie in bed and sweat. Bedding is compulsory to rent but yet it’s not included in the room rent. Everything was malfunctioning. Even the doors to get in. A horrible experience. I’ve stayed in cheaper hostels that were so much nicer.

This hostel is a good location and near public transport and around the corner from the well known Berlin club KitKatClub. The hostel is very big and the elevator is very slow. Toilet and shower quite small for a shared dorm and no extra toilets on the corridor. They also charge extra to rent sheets, who travels with their own bed sheets?
This hostel does the job for a weekend in Berlin but could do with some improvements.

Rooms are extremely small, extremely hot. Our room was supposed to be cleaned but the dirty sheets were still on the bed when we came there. The outlets to charge our phones did not work (nope, not any of all four of them). There was a promise to fix them but nothing happend. Staff is super friendly though .

The neighborhood is rough. Close to the hotel there's a building falling apart squatters are in there (which is fine) and there's barbered wire outside, together with a lot of trash. It doesn't feel super safe at night.

Pretty expensive for just a bed in a 6 square meter room, that you share with three others.

The view out of the windows is quite pretty. And honestly it would be a great place if it wouldn't be so dirty. They claimed that the rooms were disinfected. Which pretty much seemed like a huge lie. I tried putting on the bed sheets and a lot of trash fell out of the blanket itself, aswell as almost everything was quite dirty. I'm not expecting a 5 star hotel, but sanitary rooms would be really awesome without being afraid of catching bed bugs or anything else.
