Came to EastSeven cause of the wonderful reviews about the warm friendly atmosphere and it's true! I was pretty anxious travelling alone cause my friends were busy, but honestly found it so welcoming and easy to make new friends there. Many of the staff there (it's largely friendly Aussies) are volunteers helping out, so you know they're genuinely passionate about the hostel, and they run social events like family dinners, board games, drinks, etc every night to help you meet each other before going out together! The vibe also depends on who else is there at the time of your stay, but I was pretty lucky that everyone was awesome there when I stayed. There are several large social spaces including a kitchen and common room to hang with others if that's your thing, but also a dining area with smaller tables if you'd prefer a bit of alone time. There's also an outdoor area to chill. Despite staying in a 12 person room, the room was clean, spacious and well lit, with each bed serviced by a handy outlet containing an AC outlet, USB charging ports, a bed light, etc. Locker cages are available under the bed (BYO padlock, or hire from reception). I think bookings made through booking.com may also include a towel (try ask reception but please don't quote me on it x). This is oddly specific but is much appreciated by me - but the shower water pressure is amazing and the hot water is incredible, and it made me feel semi-human again after two nights of going out. Location-wise, it's close to a metro station and just a few stops from Alexanderplatz. There's also a tram a few minutes' walk away that takes you into town. A Lidl is also two minutes' walk down the road. Food-wise, there's also a few options nearby including a good burger restaurant, Indian restaurant, falafel restaurant, kebabs, pizza joint, etc.

I had the pleasure of staying here for a week in a private room with a friend of mine on a first trip to Berlin and I thought the facilities were better than you could hope for the price and the treatment by staff was exceptional. Good rooms with plenty of space and comfy beds and good facilities. I'd like to thank specifically Abel, Denise and Frida for their exceptional customer service and all around great vibes, will happily return to coffee inn whenever my bank account allows

The rooms and bathrooms were very clean. The whole place was cleaned every day. There were always free snacks available in the kitchen. Free towels were also included. Also, I'd like to add that the room was acousticly well insulated.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
