Pokoj byl sprzatany tylko na zyczenie, reczniki wymieniane rowniez na zyczenie. Pokoj naprawde maly, telewizor byl ale nie dzialal, internet ok. Pracownicy zbyt zajeci, zeby pytac sie o cokolwiek. Zawsze wybieramy sniadanie w hotelu, tutaj jednak zrezygnowalismy. Jedynym plusem byla odleglosc do glownego dworca i bliska odleglosc do centrum Berlina.

Overall A&O represents the modern hostel, cheap accommodation, but no spirit. They haven’t updated their self-check in to accommodate Expedia which would have helped them out as they were swamped at check- in, but the staff on hand seemed to manage. Their common area washroom was under repair and the shower head in my bathroom shower could only point to the wall and nowhere else. Everything else was good though, but don’t expect to meet a lot of people as they don’t push that aspect a lot.

Stated at the a&o Berlin Hauptbahnhof from September 19 - 21 for the Berlin Marathon. They have a self-check in process using kiosk when you enter. This option did not work for me as the Expedia number and that which was on my Expedia confirmation were different. A member of the staff assisted me with checking in via the Kiosk and activating my door key. I was not satisfied with the cleanliness of the room that was reserved and my request to switch the room was met with satisfaction. The room was very clean and my stay from that moment was exceptional. During my stay, I utilized local options at the Berlin Hauptbahnhof Station. I also utilized the supermarket Kaufland to buy groceries to refrigerate. Most items that I needed were walking distance(up to 3 mile walking), but transportion is accessible, if preferable. Floor 0(Ground Floor) has a nice sitting area and there is food to order if needed. Breakfast if located on Floor -1(Basement) and options from whole grains(breads/roll), protein(meats), cereal, coffee, tea, juices are offered. I utilized the breakfast and a combination of my own food during my stay to meet my nutritional needs. I was able to utilize the laundry before leaving. Laundry detergent was provided by the front desk and an app is needed to start the wash and dryer. The staff were friendly and answered any questions that I had. The occupants of the room were all delightful. The neighborhood around the area felt safe, even at night.

Beds were hard with a very thin mattress. Bottom sheets were worn and had holes in places. Room was otherwise okay. Bathroom wasn’t particularly clean. Easy to get around Berlin and to main train station.

So far so good, value for money. But at the weekend, the hotel parking might be full. If you come late night, you might need to find another parking alternative.

The hostel is a busy spot. We had a private room. It was clean and comfortable. There were scuffs on the walls from heavy use. I suspect that they are full every night. Staff and guests are very friendly and helpful. We slept very well. There was a heatwave and we were still comfortable without AC
