Good location, very loud inside the building when other people are slamming doors. Staff very friendly and helpful.
We checked in with a 9m old baby and were sceptical if this hostel could accommodate our needs accordingly. But the staff and everybody was so friendly and helpful, they provided a babybed and there was even a children’s chair at the breakfast room. Really surprising quality for something that calls itself Hostel. We would always go back to Grand Hostel Berlin!
Personal was very friendly and helped me with EVERY issue I had and I asked for.

It doesn't have a place to wash and dry clothes, besides there isn't facilities for freezing foods or cut an orange or something like that. It's like a hotel, it is not a hostal.
My room was opposite the bathroom and it was the 1. on the floor. The whole night guests came , they were talking and using the bathroom. The door banged always and because they were talking I couldn’t sleep the whole night.
Honestly a wicked good experience. Felt extremely safe, everyone was very relaxed and respectful of each other. lockers in the room are huge, could fit probably two duffel bags in one and a section for electronics. Lock for it costs about 3 bucks if you don't have your own. Bar was cool, though it mentioned breakfast but I never saw food available, maybe you had to ask ahead of time. Walkable about 10 minutes to food and bars and train station is nearby. I traveled alone here as a woman and stayed in the co-ed dorm and felt really secure the entire time. Really recommend.

Not too impressed.
Alot of noice from guests(youth) kept me awake. Also the doors are very loud, so I would wake up when others went to the bathroom, or in and out of rooms in the middle of the night.
Surprised that towels were not included. I had to rent towels to take a shower, and the shower had very low quality. Either too hot or too cold. The type you have to push the button every 10seconds to keep the water coming.
Breakfast was great. And very nice that there was always someone in the reception 24/7. Kind personell.
Not a good stay, given the relatively high cost for a hostel; have stayed in budget hotels with far more free amenities. The front desk staff not as friendly & warm as one would expect from anyone working in hospitality. Was assured towels are available, only to be handed credit card machine when requesting one (€3.50 for a towel rental? Really? After charging hundreds of euros for two nights stay?); the shower on main floor was out of service, to boot. Hard to sleep through the night as one can hear footsteps, conversations, etc. Best avoided unless it’s the only option for your date(s) of visit, however unlikely that is.

Das Personal war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Zimmer hingegen war ehemals ziemlich sicher eine Raucherwohnung. Entsprechend hat das gesamte Zimmer extrem nach Nikotin gerochen. Das war sehr unangenehm.
Gammalt hus uppdelade till många rum. Väldigt dålig ljudisolering mellan rummen. Är medveten att toa och dusch är gemensam. Men dusch på plan 1-2 stängt. Och toaletter är ganska dåligt städade.
Gutes Hostel, sehr nettes Personal, tolle Lage und recht sauber. Die Zimmer sind von der Größe völlig ausreichend. Schade fanden wir, dass Handtücher nicht inkl. waren, so mussten wir noch 7€ für zwei Handtücher zahlen. Hatten wir so noch nie erlebt.
Hostelin yeri, sakinliği çok güzeldi. Metroya çok yakın, şehrin pek çok yerine ve havaalanına ulaşımı kolay. Oda ve çarşaflar temizdi. Tuvaletler de her gün temizleniyordu. Çalışanlar kibardı. Kahvaltı güzeldi.
Şehre erken vardım, bavulumu giriş saatine kadar ücretsiz olarak tuttular, teşekkür ederim. Sadece duştaki giderler çok iyi çalışmıyordu, su biriktiği için hijyen açısından rahat hissetmedim.
