The Student Hotel Berlin

3 Alex - 2 weeks ago

An average hotel that markets towards younger individuals yet has absurd prices. Overall it is okay; the hotel is clean, it is colorful, the lounge area is aesthetic, and there is always an event going on or people mingling amongst another. However, the rooms and utilities are slightly lacking in practicality. The rooms themselves don’t have a mini fridge so if you are planning to buy some groceries: don’t, unless you will eat them the same day. The laundry facilities are free but the dryers are bad as even if you dried your clothes for five hours, they will still be damp/wet and there is no drying rack in the room. Not to mention, the lack of personal responsibility from other hotel guests to get their clothes from the machines leaving you either waiting half a day for an open machine or throwing someone else’s clothes onto a table- not the hotels fault. The rooms are rather sound proof and you can’t hear your neighbors but you will wake up in the middle of the night coughing from the amount of smokers who smoke right below your window, even though you are on a high floor. They have a good restaurant on the ground floor but supplies run out fast so the menu is oftentimes reduced. To summarize: the hotel is a hectic environment with helpful but overworked staff. It is located ideally next to the metro and the centralized location gives you a good starting place to begin to explore the city. Would I recommend it? No. But it is better than a hostel.

It's a well decorated with lighting and entrance gives a good first impression but it has its own down side. It is a good hotel with good atmosphere and gym, washer and dryer. (But only 4 of each washer/dryer which is not enough for the amount of rooms they have).
Location is very good. Close to some of city sights) And it has fusball and ping pong too.

But for a 4 star hotel I expected to at least have free tea/coffee for guests in the room or lobby. But you have to buy everything you want from restaurants/bar in the lobby. I guess they want to make guests to spend money in bar.

Also we reached there by 1 PM and young girl at reception didn't check us in, said we had to wait to 3 PM. So I had to wait until 3 pm. While I personally saw people who came and checked into their room during that time.

P.S: there's a breakfast in the lobby which isn't included but it's mentioned in the room key card. So don't make a mistake because it's 15$ for a breakfast which is the price of a lunch buffet. Their bar has low quality food for a high price. In Berlin you can get a very nice decent meal for 10 euros.

Decent hotel for the price. Location is amazing. During our 3 night stay, we asked for an extra blanket and the toilet seat to be replaced, but didn't get any of the two request fulfilled. Other than that, it was a decent experience.

I had an amazing experience in the hotel. It is next to transportation offering a lot of activities In it (gym, restaurant, working rooms etc…). The design of the room and the hotel in general were great, it also makes you feel very comfortable easily. I totally recommend.

The most basic hotel I have ever visited, worth no more than 3 stars, the place is unorganized, the food is below average and the room quality does not reflect the price, there is smoke and food smell that can be detected, room comfort is at a very basic level, slippers, bathrobes not provided, the mattress is bubbled and can be felt over the sheet. Cleanliness disappointing in the room and the overall communal areas.

We loved the concept of the hotel. It had a great vibe. The rooms were to dark and felt a bit stuffed and without air.

The mattress is stiff which was weird but we slept very well.

Our room wasn't made during our stay.

Checked-in on 20/5/22. The first impression was good (common areas are nice) however, later it turned out ti be one of the worst experiences we ever had. Checked-in at 22:30, they gave us a room full of smoke/sewage smell. We asked to change the room immediately - they said no way. There was both a receptionist and night manager during the shift. We insisted (politely) and they said we were should not "annoy" them and we should not be "arrogant" and that they would "call the security" (to which we said no problem at all). Unbelievable. It can always happen that for this or another reason the room can has some smell, but the attitude of the employees was really unpleasant and just impolite, and we were not asking for anything special - we just were asking for a room without any smell. They really did not care. We asked if they can change the room tomorrow, they said they don't know and that we have to come tomorrow to the reception because "they don't know". The problem with the smell could not be solved easily also because you cannot open the windows fully. P. S. The room cleaning was very mediocre.
