Excellent place!”
Excellent place! Big, clean, no external noises, located just beside a frequent S bahn, and tram and bus station. It has really big and comfy "hang out" area and nice, cheap bar with great coctails and burgers. Right next to the hostel there is Rewe market, you can by cheap food and drinks, DM if miss a shampoo, and Burger king if you want the taste of the brand. All in all, just great!

Convenient, with helpful staff”
A very comfortable stay in a friendly establishment. There didn't seem to be many attractions in the area but the hostel was conveniently located for trains and buses, with a station just moments from the hostel. The bar was cosy and fun and the garden was pleasant. My only gripe was that the key cards seemed to stop working and I was constantly having to get mine replaced. Other than that, it was a great stay and I would certainly recommend a visit.

Hey there, Thank you so much for your positive review. The only thing I can advise our guests about the key stop working is not to store it next to a mobile phone or other magnetic cards. I hope that next time you're visiting Berlin you will stay with us again. All the best, Guilad, Generator Berlin Prenzlauer Berg

Excellent hostel”
Friendly and helpful staffs, location is close to shops and public transports, room is tidy. But WiFi often not working after using for less than 10 minutes and no air cond. Overall, it's still a nice hostel with pleasant staffs and good place for holiday stay.

Absolutely Perfect!”
2 minute walk from the S-bahn station - super clean, friendly, and atmospheric. This is a chain hostel, so standards are pretty high, and the service professional. However, although the price paid was excellent, any extras come with a cost. Luggage storage and towels are charged, and there are no communal computers. Aside from these things, there are no drawbacks - all was superb!

Superfast check in. A bit dusty in the room. Shower was good, hard en Hot water. Toilets were filthy. A lot of loud youngsters. In the summer it was very fun. In winter spring a bit boring due to the weather

Excellent”
Good location, close to the train station, a supermarket and a number of food choices nearby. Room and bathroom was small but clean. The elevator was really slow so we usually took the stairs; but if you are at a higher floor or are bringing luggage you have to queue around for a bit. Overall a good stay.

Good Place”
If you do not have problem with being naked in front of others when willing to take a shower than it’s no problem although I felt kind of intimidated that common area in the bathroom was so big that it is impossible to have a privacy even there.

Good place, but big, so a little impersonal”
People didn’t hang around at the hostel at night, went out for fun. Too expensive? People didn’t mix in dining roomy, kept to themselves. Best area was the beer garden

Kitchen”
There is not any kitchen or cooking place where we can prepare our own stuff to eat. Other than that great value for money.

Good location and clean”
Pretty good but if you are sols travel lady, it will be good that you book for a lady dorm and I think you do not want to be surprise by having all guy roommates and pay extra for a same figure room just for you want lady roommates.

Average, low cost, & clean place to stay”
Pros: - Very close to public transportation & grocery stores - Affordable - Friendly, helpful staff - Clean - lockers right underneath your bed Cons: - Guests are unable to use the kitchen for personal cooking - NO air conditioning!! - Very loud at night bc people will play basketball all throughout the night & the metro station is so close that you hear it all night as well

Dear Leah, thank you for your feedback! I am really pleased to see that you liked our location, staff and price! Naturally, i'm disappointed to read that you were disturbed by noise, did you know that the reception operates 24 hours a day? Next time just come down or give us a call and we will take care of it. We hope you had a great time in Berlin and look forward to seeing you again soon - Amy, Reception
Cheap but low quality ”
I have stayed at generator hostels in Venice and Copenhagen, which had been great experiences, and was happy to save a buck booking Generator Prenzlauer Berg when I needed accommodation in my old hometown. Log story short: Disappointing. It’s a huge complex that was full up to the brim with guests. The durable materials used (often metal) and the lack of colours give it the feel of a prison. The carpets are worn out. Most annoying was the lack of hygiene. The toilets were filthy. I saw people coming in who had obviously been going from level to level in search of a usable toilet. The stalls were so small, people had to open the doors to get up from the toilets. It was hot in the rooms, no AC. The curtains didn’t really blot out the light, so I was awake at 6. Then again it was getting too hot to sleep anyway. Everything is designed to minimise any work for the few staff. There isn’t even a tray you could put your soap on in the showers. Given this “economic” business model and the high demand, this place must be a money printing machine. Just don’t expect the great atmosphere and relative luxury of other generator hostels. This place should be called de-generator.

Nice place”
The only problem was the groups of high school kids staying there. In the middle of the night, I could hear the kids were still awake and making noise in the rooms.

We hope you had a great time in Berlin and look forward to welcoming you back again soon - Amy, Reception
