This place is a cute little hotel, I thought I'd be staying one night until I found better lodging…read morebut I ended up staying for my entire time in Berlin. The rooms are clearly pretty old, the furniture and the radio built into the bed make that pretty clear but it's clean and well taken care of, the old style of it was personally charming and combined with the relatively cheap prices was what convinced me to stay longer. The main downsides were the lack of AC and that the cold water wasn't regulated well and somehow ran low sometimes. The wifi could also be a little faster. Berlin was cool enough in the summer during my stay that leaving my window open at night was enough to keep the room nice but the first night when I kept the window closed I woke up sweating. If you are looking for a 5 star resort this probably isn't it but if you're looking for something well run, charming and cheap this is it.

A really unassuming building off one of the main roads in the Schoneberg district is this little…read moregem. It may look like a strange bedsit from the outside but inside is a wonderful clean mish-mash of old elaborate staircases and architecture. I loved this place which was really old fashioned without being grubby or faded. It had this ole style radio build into the headboard of the bed!! The Mrs and I enjoyed listening to German radio while drifting off to sleep. The room was quite big with high ceilings and had ample space for swinging cats. I do remember the doors were a bit tricky to master. There was this trick with swobs and pushing buttons, waiting for lights to come on then twisting. So be prepared for a challenge and leave plenty of time to figure out how to get into your room!! There's a little bar just past the main reception area which was cute and open until 10pm I think. The staff were polite and the breakfast looked Ok, but to be honest the area is perfect for breakfast with a wonderful bakery right next door you'll find it hard to resist.

Cool rooms with superheavy sound and break-in proof doors. Workstations in the lobby (not used but top Apple stations). Monkey bar at night, Neni restaurant with wonderful breakfast buffet and view onto the zoo in the morning. PS: just one concern: a disaster waiting to happen: the bathroom has very e very nice soap and shampoo brand, but they come in glass bottles that have no hard rails and could easily slip and break in midst of taking a shower... pls do something before that happens!!

Visited the hotel bar on the top level around 9pm on a Friday. The space isn't huge and is quite…read moreloud but it is a VIBE. Dim lights, lots of candles, really fun drinks (and not to mention strong)- coming in the summer would be best as then you can also use the outdoor balcony. Anyway, the prices were pretty on par with what you'd assume- I think my colada was €14, and was so so strong. But very good. Highly recommend the hummus platter! There was sooooo much hummus, and not nearly enough pita bread but that was fine. Will absolutely go back but also keep in mind that there was quite a bit of a queue to get inside.

What can I say but simply a fantastic hotel, my partner and I were very impressed! Usually you pay…read morean average price and expect an average hotel but this hotel was fantastic, very very clean, modern, and the rooms huge, I especially liked the large ultra stylish shower. We would definitely stay there again. The only negatives were that that the door card mechanisms were incredibly temperamental and the kind receptionists had to come to our aid a few times. The location also isn't the best if you like being right in the heart of it all and there are few restaurants in the immediate vicinity, but it is only a 10 minute walk to the nearest metro station so nowhere is far away.

I was visiting Berlin for a few days, and planned to stay with friends, but the night before I was…read moreto arrive I wasn't able to get in touch with them. So I decided to play it safe and book a hotel. I found Lindemann's on hotels.com, and made a booking for the first night. Right afterward, literally within one or two minutes, my friends called me up, and I no longer needed the hotel room. Unfortunately, it turned out that the cancellation policy was such that none of my reservation could be refunded, since it was within 24 hours, even though I had just booked it. So immediately I called up hotels.com, and they said that usually in cases like this the hotel would be reasonable and refund the money, that I should just go ahead and cancel the booking, and that they would get in touch with the hotel. This I did, and later I heard back from hotels.com that the manager at the hotel refused to refund the booking. I have to say that I find this pretty unreasonable: it's not like the hotel lost an opportunity to give that room to someone else during the 20 minutes it took for me to cancel the reservation. Obviously I cannot speak to the quality of the stay, but this interaction makes me seriously doubt the way this hotel treats its customers. I wonder what other ways the management finagles money out of people who choose to stay at this "cheap" hotel.

This hotel was an excellent place to stay for my solo trip to Berlin. It was located in a very…read morequiet area so I was able to get a good night's sleep every night. The hotel was located just a couple of blocks from the train station, restaurants, and a supermarket so I really didn't need a vehicle to get around town. I walked and took public transportation to all the places that I needed to go. The room was kind of small but perfect for someone traveling solo. I stayed here for the Berlin Marathon. It was a nice walk to and from the start/finish area. Not too far. If I run the marathon again in the future, I would try to stay here again.

We booked the appartments which they offered on their website;…read morewhich means we were 5 minutes walking from the hotel in a residential apartment house (which was under construction)... As this is the gay area of Berlin the noise level in the house was on party mode. The apartment itself looked okay at first glance, but then we have seen: - dust everywhere - open pack of salt and sticky olive oil in the kitchen - dirty dishes - a huge hole in the wall - sheets that don't cover the whole matress (and it was NOT delicious to see it...) - various leftovers from previous guests. - mold in the shower - open bottles of shampoo and shower gel (no dispensers as in normal hotels) - tv and wifi were available but connection was pretty bad (as the tv quality was bad we thought about Hulu or Netflix but this was not possible as the wifi was way too slow) - the promoted bar where you can buy additional breakfast was closed. The front desk was rather distant (had issues with the language barrier German to English?), and mostly not available. All in all a rather expensive and not well put airbnb in Berlin... Not coming back here (there is a Mercure hotel around the corner which was unfortunately booked out, but pricing is okay there).
