Our stay at acama was great, only complaint is lack of AC because we came during a heat wave and our room was incredibly hot. However I know it’s very rarely that warm so it’s understandable to not have AC. The staff were very kind in getting us as many fans as possible for our room which was awesome. The inner courtyard is lovely and we did the 14 euro breakfast one morning which was great. The neighborhood was not my favorite but it was close to public transit so it was fine.

For some bizarre reason, every night after midnight someone decided to move furniture close enough for this to be loud and causing vibration of the bed. Not really premises fault, but indicator that despite overall quietness, you may hear your neighbours too well.

It astounds me why someone in their wisdom decided setting timer of the bathroom fan to spin fast and loud at 5 in the morning is the good idea. This is definitely a negative.

As well as very soft pillows. I put my head on two, and effectively my head fell into them lying at the mattress level, which itself is quite comfortable.

I paid reasonable price for my three nights, so I'm moderately satisfied. I haven't used food or drink facilities there, so no comment on that aspect.

The staff were, without exception, welcoming, approachable and helpful throughout my stay - and remarkably fluent in English. My room was thoroughly cleaned each day. The furnishings were basic but included everything necessary, apart possible from a glass tumbler. Despite seeming to have a large number of guests, I experienced complete quietness during the night. The hotel does face onto a busy road but my impression is that few of the bedrooms are on that side of the building. The dining room was open from 6.30am during the working week and from 7am at weekends and, I seem to remember, it was open for four hours on each occasion. Perhaps because of the extended opening times there was never any crushes during breakfast. It has as good a range and quantity of food as in many more expensive hotels.
The hotel is in an excellent position for travelling in Berlin. Ten minutes walk from Acama hotel, in one direction, takes you to Hallesches Tor U-bahn which allows access to all parts of the city; while ten minutes in the opposite direction takes you to Meckernbrucke U-bahn which, along with an airport shuttle bus, gives direct access to Berlin Brandenburg airport. But frankly if you are moderately fit and not accompanied by children it is possible to walk to most of the main tourist attractions in central Berlin, from Acama. All-in-all I was delighted with my choice of accommodation and
Acama hotel will certainly be my first choice for accommodation next time in Berlin.

I would not recommend this property to anyone. The staff was not friendly or helpful whatsoever, they just want to move you through and get to the next person. The room was very small and the shower is ridiculous. There are absolutely no amenities and they want to charge you for everything including coffee and water. The ATM has a $30 surcharge on it and the staff will tell you there is no fee for using it. There is no parking for available for anyone driving a large van or vehicle and the staff could care less about helping you find a place to park as well. Breakfast was not included and was an upcharge just like everything else in this place (to include the Foosball table). The location is not that great or ideal either. Also, stay away from the bar that is next door, it is an Ethiopian dive that my daughter got her purse stolen in. We traveled to five different hotels in Europe while on this trip and this was BY FAR the worst.

The hotel room was very very stuffy with very little ventilation. You could only open the windows but you'd still be sweating. No fans were available in our 6 people room.

Also the courtyard was also full of people talking up to 2.30am nearly every night which made it very hard to sleep. (Couldnt even close the windows unless you wanted to suffocate from lack of oxygen!

They were also very stingy on the toilet paper and gave us the bare minimum, even though we were staying there for 10 nights.

Perfect for my needs

It's an odd shaped building and the room was hard to find at first, the lift was a bit tricky, however the room itself was perfect for my requirements (and it's price).

The room was cleaned daily, beds made and bathroom supplies replenished. I paid for a single room, however my room had 2 beds. That's not a bad thing though, as the room was also far bigger than I was expecting.

There is a lobby downstairs where wifi and cups of coffee and tea can be made for free. Keep in mind it is also a hostel, so you may end up sharing the lobby with a school tour.

The building is about a 10 minute walk to Hallesches Tor U-Bahn, which offers transport to pretty much anywhere you would want to go.

If you are looking for cheap accommodation in Berlin for a few days and your goal is a city break mostly out of the hotel, then this place fits the bill perfectly.

Good location, clean rooms, poor facilities

Well, I always seem to forget that you get what you pay for. In the light of that sentence, Aletto Kreuzberg is absolutely fine for how cheap it is. The hotel itself is located close to the U Bahn and a few blocks from lots of restaurants and shops, which is great. The hotel has free coffee and tea in the rec room, which was pretty much constantly overrun with teenagers. There's a nice courtyard, a computer you can use, and spotty wi-fi in the common areas. Though the hallways are very dingy and dirty, our room itself was very clean upon arrival, aside from some rather gross stains on the undersides of the mattresses (I was in a lower bunk, so I could see them on the bed above me).

The hotel staff cleaned our room every day, but they never changed the sheets or towels as far as I could tell. They also really just pushed the dirt around on the floors instead of removing it, which was annoying. But they kept the bathroom spotless, and it was very convenient to have our own toilet and shower. The shower had consistently hot water and good pressure. Beds were pretty uncomfortable, but we had plenty of space. No internet in the rooms. Also, our television was broken.

We did have a run-in with a super cranky staff member who was rude and unhelpful.

Overall, it's a fine place to crash for the night and shower. If you want to spend any quality time inside of the place you're staying, this isn't really the place for you. But it's cheap and adequate for the price.

I only stayed here for one night and it was so ideal for my stay I believe it would have been fine for a longer stay and I plan on returning! I was visiting the Premium exhibition at Station Berlin which was a 10 minute walk away. Mockenbrucke station is 2 mins walk down the road from the hotel. You can get a train to Rudow and then bus to Schoenefield Airport about 40 mins total. I booked a double room for 2 ppl which was very roomy, the room had 2 comfy single beds and a bunk bed, a small table to sit at, an open wardrobe with separate shower room and toilet (within the room). The room had lovely high ceilings and huge windows. Temperature was fine considering it was 3 degrees C outside, heaters worked well! Breakfast was very decent for just 5 euros: hams, cheeses, pate, rolls, fruits, muesli, salad, juice provided a good start to the day. There are a variety of complimentary fruit teas and green tea at the bar downstairs. Wi-fi was very reliable but only available in the lobby. I later appreciated this despite the inconvenience of not having access in the room after meeting others who had to pay 24 euros for 24 hours wi-fi at their hotel!

Decent hotel in a good location in Berlin

Decent hotel for the money, I would stay there again. The location is handy, with things to do within walking distance, or a short metro ride. In addition to all the central highlights, take the U1 to Warschauer Strasse for a scenic journey along the river, then walk along a long stretch of intact Berlin wall.

The rooms are nothing fancy, but perfectly functional and clean. The room I stayed in could fit up to 6 people (2 single beds, plus 2 bunks) so potentially good for families. Minor things to bear in mind - no body wash or shampoo, but handwash was provided. And for guys with electric shavers, no universal shaver socket in the bathroom - bring a converter. No remote control for the TV. CNN and BBC world can be found with patience!

The hotel is a bit like a hostel I guess, with a young vibe, but plenty of older guests and families staying there - all are welcome. We stayed there over the Christmas/new year period - there was a little noise on the street out the front a couple of nights, but generally fine. The staff were friendly and helpful - only slight concern was sometimes you needed patience to get served at reception.

Breakfast is not included in the cost, but you can buy a good buffet breakfast for a few euros (or buy breakfast on the go). Decent kebab shop just down the road at Hallesches Tor station - you are never far away from food in this city. Food stops just about everywhere, plus several markets for street food!

Overall, a good stay and loved Berlin!

Some trouble with my reservation

In my booking, I clearly stated that I was booking a room for two adults and one 8-year old child. However, when I checked in, the hotel employee only saw booking for two adults on his end. At first he told me I needed to pay additional 15 euros per night for my child, but later on told me not to worry about it. Because there were three of us, out of good intention, the hotel employee gave us a dorm room exclusively for us so that we each could have our bed. The room was very cold and we were very disappointed at what we were given, so we asked for room change. We were then given a small room with a double bed. My son slept on the floor during our entire stay. If you are a family of three, one room may not be sufficient for you unless you three can squeeze on one bed or your child can sleep on the floor.
We booked a hotel room in a venue that is a mixture of hotel and hostel. The overall theme is hostel.
