I had a lovely stay at the hotel with stunning views over the Spree River and Oberbaumbrücke Bridge. My room was clean and spacious, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The location is perfect for exploring Berlin, as it’s right next to historical sights and convenient public transport. However, I found the dining experience to be a bit overwhelming at times, and while the overall experience was great, there’s room for improvement in that area.

The hotel boasts a fantastic location near the Berlin Wall and several museums, making it perfect for exploring the city. The rooms, though small, are clean and functional, and the staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. However, the overall value for money seems lacking, especially compared to budget hostels. I did appreciate the prompt taxi service but found the rooms a bit cramped.

I recently stayed at this hotel and found it to be a mixed bag. The rooms were clean and surprisingly better than some 4-star hotels I've been to. The staff was super friendly and went out of their way to assist us. However, the location is a bit out of the way from the main tourist attractions, and the dining options could definitely use some improvement. Overall, it's a decent place for the price, but not ideal if you're looking for the central action.
