The hotel room faced the street, so it was very loud.Room was clean.The elevator is closed from 10 p.m.!Right next to the subway, therefore relatively safe even for women traveling alone.But around €100 per night is overpriced.

Great value, good sociable space.Needs more facilities: washing machine, secure luggage storage, and more power sockets. 2x power sockets in a dorm with 14 beds is not enough. Sunflower Hostel in East Berlin offer all of these.

Metropol Hostel Berlin offers a comfortable and affordable stay in the vibrant Kreuzberg district. Guests appreciate the clean and modern facilities, friendly staff, and convenient location near public transportation. The hostel's 24-hour reception, free Wi-Fi, and daily breakfast buffet are definite pluses. While some rooms might be a bit small and noise can be an issue, the overall positive experience makes it a great choice for budget-minded travelers seeking a social and convenient base for exploring Berlin.

It was a solid hostel, but the bathroom was under water

Given the current prices in the capital, you can definitely stay here for a short time. Rooms and breakfast are unpretentious, but the location and infrastructure are good. Check-in and check-out were quick. We noticed more traffic on the third floor than in any other metropolis. So get fit for 1-2 nights.

Creepy. I have never slept in worse accommodation. The bathroom overflows when you shower and you can't go to the toilet without rubber boots. The van is clogged and stinks, the water doesn't drain. If you don't hang up the flabby curtain, it will stick to you in the toilet. There is only one towel, no bath towel. The rooms are totally noisy, the visitors in the hallway are loud. At times I had considered whether parts of the house could serve as asylum accommodation. The breakfast room is packed, the breakfast is enough, but it's not great. The only good thing is the location: right next to the subway. But the hostel is not worth repeating.

Quite apart from the fact that it is located in Kreuzberg Berlin (the worst part of Berlin), the entrance is very bad. The beds are hard and the bed frame is made of plastic. They also wobble extremely, as if they would break. No fans or ventilation so we burned in the 30°C heat in the room. The lockers are like something out of a prison movie and the chairs are broken. The staff is annoying, if you're still talking in the room after 10 p.m., security comes. The reception is on the third floor and you can't take the elevator because it looks homemade and shakes as if it's about to crash. Overall just bad. Oh and there were no towels to dry your hands either. 0/10.

I do not recommend staying here. Me and my friend paid 331,1€ for 3 nights. Very expensive for this accommodation, at least we had our own bedroom. In the bathroom, we had mould, even when you turn the light on, you are in dark. Breakfast is not so good, very simple. Vegetables are cut in big pieces, only two types of bread. During the night, you hear noise from the hallway. One night at 1 p.m., somebody was knocking on the door. Stuff was unfriendly. Additionally, if you write them an email, you do not get respond, I had written two emails.

No words. Rooms were super loud, staff was super unfriendly, we were given a room for 6 people. After a lot of back and forth with the help of the website we booked on, we were then given the room we had booked. I can't describe the stay in words. The beds are some cheap loft beds with slatted frames made of two panels. We put our mattresses on the floor. Door didn't go all the way to the floor, saw footsteps in the hallway.Refugees also seem to be accommodated in the hostel, which isn't a big deal if you know in advance. There is a youth welfare service in the hostel, so I have no idea what exactly is thereis operated.

Trip with a school class. Hostel is in an old building and has basic, but appropriate comfort. I've been to a lot of German Jugendherbergen with similar or even less comfort... …

Having paid £180 for a three person room, I was taken aback on arrival to be asked for a further €5 pp in cash “for linen”. As it was 1am, I just paid it as I wasn’t thinking straight. I’ve never heard of such a thing. …

For more than 10 years now, when I've been in Berlin every few years, I've preferred cheap accommodation where I can just lie down and sleep. Of course the accommodation is not the newest but I have never been disappointed. I am and remain satisfied.
