Absolutely not suitable for people with allergies, I had the worst hay fever in recent years in the three days. "

The ddr design hostel-' take a time warp back to the east -Berlin the 70. and 80. years.' Sounds in the first reading the website well. The accompanying pictures do the rest and wake up ostalgie for the viewers-functional furniture, the funkradio, the authentic wallpaper and honikerportrait are not only the feeling trusts. A couple of days in the 'original gdr plate' staying... Why not? Therefore: Welcome you in the like-like 'design' hostel, from a dirty atmosphere at the front desk, by the whole hostel attracts. Before you the rooms can get, must one the dirty, down at stairways happen. The can be a … read more

I have from the hostel more promised. The bathroom was functional, is, shower, toilet, washbasin were available. In the shower was the sewage however clogged, so after a short time already the water be issued had not wegzuschwimmen. For the price I had more service expected, of course, it is a hostel, a youth hostel in ddr-style, but somehow it was my expectation higher than what we have had. Advantage is of course close proximity to ostbahnhof station and the city. A visit was enough ( one night it would also done), the next time something else. … read more

A booked double room turned out to be a twin room. The non-smoking rooms was right above the smokers place in front of the entrance. In the room there was no closet. This stood in the hallway. On the internet side mentioned shared bathroom, proved floors -toilet. Floors dirty, at the bed sheets were thrust pressures and on the table in the room were not exactly definable brown stains. On the malfunctions proved the employees at the reception as incompetent and unhelpful. Despite notice of defects a cancellation fee of 90% withheld. As the 'feeling' quickly to the market economy accustomed. In … read more

Honored Guests, Would you like an affordable and somewhat different place tostay in the heart of Berlin? Then you´ll find what you´re looking for at the OSTEL! Our guesthouse in the “Berlin Mitte” district offers you a unique experience. Travel with us back to the former East Germany, the GDR, starting with the original GDR furniture to a city tour in a Trabant vehicle. You can choose from various types of rooms with different themes at varying prices: from the “pioneer camp” room to the pre-fabricated apartment or the Stasi suite... And don´t worry! So far no-one´s been arrested at the border crossing (check-in), and the mattresses, bed linen and plumbing are all fully modern. Come and enjoy the countless clever and amusing touches of everyday life in the GDR. Our OSTEL is just a few minutes away from the center of Berlin and from bars,restaurants, clubs and shop.
