Ideal for exploring Berlin
Just a short 3 day stay in Berlin for my family and I after attending a family wedding in Bad Schandau. Our first trip to Germany. Our overall experience was excellent. Everything went without a hitch. We felt safe and looked after. We found politeness and helpfulness everywhere we went, and this was a great introduction to a country we had never visited. Berlin is a busy, bustling city with so much to see, and a long and interesting history. Don't come expecting a tranquil, peaceful getaway, this is a vibrant, exciting place to visit. The Pension we stayed in was great, a nice quiet couple of rooms to relax in before the next adventure!

Keep looking for another hotel
We went with this place based on reviews but we were disappointed. It looks more like a youth hostel than a hotel. There is no formal reception area, just a locked door. You have to ring the bell to reach a staff person. Other disappointments include: the building also has permanent residents and there is an enclosed courtyard. It's very loud in the courtyard and the lights are motion sensored and always shining through the window adjacent to the courtyard. There isn't always hot water in the small shower and while the ad says they have free wi-fi, it's only for an hour a day - if you can connect to it at all. Lastly, they don't tell you when you check in that they don't accepted credit cards for payment, just cash. The positives is the hotel is in a decent area and if you like walking, it's a nice stroll to Alexanderplatz. My suggestion is to find a hotel closer to Alexanderplatz or the Europa Centre. Berlin is a great city to walk around and both of those locations make sightseeing a little easier.

Avoid. Maybe the worst hotel in the city.
Maybe the worst service of any hotel I've ever stayed in. The receptionists (when there) were nice enough, however I had nothing but problems with this hotel. Upon arrival at 6:30pm they left the key for me because there is only a receptionist for limited hours; the entire hotel smelled like smoke and when I got to my room it smelled like someone had smoked for years in there. Since there was nobody in reception until the following day and I didn't have any way to call, I contacted hotels.com; hotels.com called for me and said that the person on the phone was rude and that they would stop by later to discuss the situation, but nobody ever stopped by. Since we had just arrived on a 16 hour flight I decided to sleep with the windows open and discuss the next day. When we got into bed half of the bed sheets were covered in hair so we ended up with two people squeezed onto one side of the bed. The following day the receptionist told me that they couldn't do anything about smokers even though it's a non-smoking room; she apologized and moved me to another room that smelled a bit better. However, the new room had a towel that appeared to have feces or blood on it, which I only saw after the fact. There's also only 1 hour of "free" wifi in this hotel. Lastly, upon checkout they tried to charge me a 5% fee for using a credit card. I was in a hurry and didn't have time to run to an ATM. After arguing they agreed to accept the card without a fee. Avoid this hotel!

the price is right
The place is clean and adequate and Ms. Jordan is very helpful. However, they shut down the reception at 6 PM and for someone from outside of German, it seems a bunker not being able to connect for any info especially regarding the city till the next morning. for someone who arrives at 6, even though they discourage it is very alienating. It would be great to have also an internet service even charging customers. Human touch is important for the rest of the world. This place doesn't have it...sorry to say. But yes I recommend it making my friends aware of what to expect. There was a dispute with the payment method as well. They need to let guests know in advance they don't take credit cards. The manager I suppose can do it but when I went to check in, the staff was not prepared what to do with me who insisted I pay with credit card. She wanted to call a police before I plead with her to call Mrs. Jordan. I found it a minor annoyance but others could be scarred forever and not good for word of mounth advertising...the best there is.

God og billig overnatning på Prenzlauer Berg
Perfekt beliggenhed i forhold til Prenzlauer Berg området og dets mange små butikker og spisesteder. Stedet er kun værelser til overnatning, hvilket dog ikke er noget problem med det udvalg af spisesteder der er i lokalområdet. Bemærk stedet tager ikke mod kreditkort betaling, kun kontant!!

Enttäuschung!
Gutes Dreibett-Zimmer - ruhige und zentrale Lage - OK Frühstück. Problem: Wirtin wünscht unbedingt Bargeld-Abrechnung - - - Panik-Panik - schnell zur ATM beim Türken!!! Wir zahlten die Hälfte bar, konnten aber am Abreisetag den Restbetrag mit VISA-Karte nicht ausgleichen. Daher Gebühr :-( Altmodische Zahlungsform! Nirgendwo wird erwähnt, dass Frühstück zusätzliche 6€ pro Person kostet. Gut, daß man da nicht arbeitet ... :-(

kelpo yöpymispaikka mutta varaa käteistä maksuun
Hinta - laatu -suhde oli paikallaan. Emme ottaneet aamupalaa, joten emme voi arvostella sitä. Olimme kaiken kaikkiaan muuten tyytyväisiä, kunnes tuli maksun aika: Henkilökuntaa ei näkynyt edelliselle illalle mailla halmeilla, sillä halusimme maksaa yöpymisen aikaisen lähtömme vuoksi. Jätimme vastaajaan useita viestejä, jolla ilmaisimme halumme maksaa yöpymisemme. Lentokentällä ollessamme saimme vihdoin elävän ihmisen kiinni pensionaatin vastaanotosta, joka yritti aluksi vängätä meidät maksamaan yöpymisen luottakorttiveloituksena ja sen vuoksi olisimme joutuneet maksamaan vielä ekstra 5 prosenttia. Lopulta kuitenkin pääsimme yhteisymmärrykseen isäntätahon kanssa, ettei tilanne ollut meidän syytä. Hekin syyttelivät tapahtuneesta kokematonta henkilökuntaa. Saksassa tai ainakin Berliinissä näyttää olevan epäluuloa luottokortteja kohtaan, sillä monessa kahvilassakin maksumasiina oli "juuri sille päivälle" epäkunnossa. Onneksi olin käynyt lukemassa näitä vinkkejä etukäteen, pärjäsimme ihan hyvin kun oli tarpeeksi käteistä käytössä. Tässä pensionaatissakin pitää maksaa yöpyminen käteisellä.

Good for sleeping only.
Room is fine for sleeping only, cleaning and bathroom is also fine. In regard to payment, hotel initially claims they do not take creditcard - then tries to add 5% on top of the wage if they finally agree to take your credit - this is not stated anywhere and not very professional for business travelers such as myself, and should not be accepted.

Unterkunft mit Gutem Preis/Leistungs-Verhältnis
Gut gelegen im Bezirk Prenzlauer Berg hatte ich ein ruhiges Zimmer zum Innenhof. Es war geräumig mit einem separaten Bereich mit Sesseln. Zum Frühstück kann ich nichts sagen, da ich es nicht genutzt habe. Hinweis: die Pension Prenzlberg akzeptiert keine Kreditkarten, jedoch ec-Karten. Für mich kein Problem, aber ich hätte einen klaren Hinweis *vor* der Buchung auf der hotels.com-Seite gut gefunden.

simpel maar effectief, en in gezellige buurt
het is een simpel pension; de kamer was voor 3 personen ruim, de derde persoon lag op een comfortabele slaapbank met een goede matras. De badkamer was eveneens ruim genoeg. Schoonmaak van de kamer was prima. Ontbijt hebben we niet gebruikt, we hebben dat bij een bakkerij tje gedaan in de buurt. Het pension zit op de benedenverdieping van een huizenblok. De straat is rustig, het pension ook. Receptie is 's avonds niet open, als je 's avonds aankomt even contact met ze opnemen, dan maken ze een afspraak met je over de sleutel. De buurt, Prenzlberg, is erg gezellig, die zou ik een volgende keer weer uitzoeken. Veel winkels en eetgelegenheden op loop afstand.
