This hostel is on the northern bank of the Landwehr Canal in the Kreuzberg district. It is along U-Bahn Line 15 about halfway between the Moeckenbrucke and Hallesches Tor stops and is a modern concrete 7-floor building with a large red M sign on the outside.
The hostel is fairly well located within walking distance of Checkpoint Charlie and there are numerous supermarkets and cheap takeaways in the area. There are seven floors of rooms with lift access. There is a hostel bar next to the building and breakfast (other meals are also available) is served on the rooftop terrace with a view of the city. The excellent breakfast was a wide variety of hams, cheeses, bread cereal, and coffee/tea/juice.
There are drinks and hostel souvenirs for sale at the reception and the staff there are friendly and helpful. The rooms are located along long corridors and are accessed with individual security keycards that also open the main entrance at night. The rooms and toilets are very clean. The double-deck beds are quite comfortable and there are large individual lockers (need your own locks). There is a TV and a table and chairs make up a common area in the room. Linen is provided at check-in. The hostel organizes regular group activities (such as Playstation competitions) in the bar or basement.
This hostel is obviously targeting the young backpacker market. However, the hostel has the atmosphere of a family resort and most of the guests seem to be elderly Germans and families (both German and foreign) who find it a good and cheap alternative to a hotel. But depending on your perspective that may or may not be a compliment for a youth hostel.
