one80º Hostel Berlin

Location!

They don’t clean the bathroom, neither the sheets!

The room was clean. Not too soft but not very hard mattress. Literally a few mins walking to AleksanderPlatz. The reception was always helpful and pleasant to deal with. Everyone from the stuff I would say was great. There is a big drawer underneath each lower bunk bed. And there are two more for each person inside the room - one middle and one small. For the big one Locker and key can be rented from the reception. Breakfast was good. Usual continental. It was always quiet on our floor. Many showers and toilet cabins so there was no queue. Cozy and stylish entrance/chill zone on the first floor. Entrance to the room or floor is by magnet card.

Huge problem: At night it was impossible to breathe if window was closed (in the room for 8). It was winter so we did open window before each night but we had to close it at some point. Drawers underneath beds are a bit loud and squeaky. And as room is way too teeny tiny for 8 people, every noize is heard. Movements are severely limited coz of space, e.g. you can't change your clothes or open near-bed drawer without waking up someone or a few people. Towels are extra payment - not a problem. Just clarifying for the people like me, who can skip it in hostel details but see in a review. In bathroom there is no hairdryer - it can be rented from reception tho, deposit 20 euros. Stationary ones in the shower room would be so much easier. Occasionally shower room was messy. View from window is on an old abandoned building (*not critical at all. I've never expected Seaview for the amount of money paid, but just saying so you can pick wisely if that's any valuable point for your stay).

The atmosphere was nice, especially the bar

The common bathrooms do really need more cleaning.
