In typical Kreuzberg fashion, before this renovated brick building had beds, it was a factory. 44 quiet, spacious rooms are available, varying between double-, three-, four- and seven-bed arrangements.

Then there’s the courtyard garden. Well furnished, very home-like. Double rooms actually look more hotel digs than what you normally associate when the word ‘hostel’ pops up.

Breakfast is held at the “Cafe Eisenwaren”, which is linked to the hostel.
