Excellent

The location is very convenient: minutes from Alexander Platz, Friedrich strasse and Unter den Linden. Minutes from U5 and U2 stations. Very secure area as the hotel is adjacent to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Quiet and nice neighborhood in Mitte with great restaurants. Regular rooms are fair but a bit small. Next level up, rooms are more spacious. Overall simple, clean and no-frills hotel located super conveniently in the heart of Berlin Mitte.
Nothing special , but a very good hotel for a touristic Berlin trip - just a minute or two walk off the usual tourist tracks , therefore a hidden gem, nice and quiet.
Really liked this property, only thing is and I think that it would be the same staying anywhere in Berlin it is about 20 mins away from anything, 20 mins to most places, 20 mins from food, 20 mins from a bar. But with such a massive city this can happen
The stay was excellent. I really appreciate efficiency, the quiet and cleanliness of the hotel. The one thing I found disconcerting is that there is no interior lock or chain or deadbolt on the room door.

Value for money. Convenient, clean and friendly staff. Negative: the bathroom had a weird layout and it smell bad, like a sewage backup.
Walkable to the major attractions, museum island, and the needle. Hotel room did not smell right. To our delight the desk clerk told us breakfast was included and told us where the restaurant was. Had a mediocre meal there the first day. Second day they stopped us at the door and told us no breakfast and said we should have not received the first one. Needless embarrassment and error on their part. $6 bottled water no refills in the room after cleaning. No frills, instant coffee in the room, basic.
