Came to EastSeven cause of the wonderful reviews about the warm friendly atmosphere and it's true! I was pretty anxious travelling alone cause my friends were busy, but honestly found it so welcoming and easy to make new friends there. Many of the staff there (it's largely friendly Aussies) are volunteers helping out, so you know they're genuinely passionate about the hostel, and they run social events like family dinners, board games, drinks, etc every night to help you meet each other before going out together! The vibe also depends on who else is there at the time of your stay, but I was pretty lucky that everyone was awesome there when I stayed. There are several large social spaces including a kitchen and common room to hang with others if that's your thing, but also a dining area with smaller tables if you'd prefer a bit of alone time. There's also an outdoor area to chill. Despite staying in a 12 person room, the room was clean, spacious and well lit, with each bed serviced by a handy outlet containing an AC outlet, USB charging ports, a bed light, etc. Locker cages are available under the bed (BYO padlock, or hire from reception). I think bookings made through booking.com may also include a towel (try ask reception but please don't quote me on it x). This is oddly specific but is much appreciated by me - but the shower water pressure is amazing and the hot water is incredible, and it made me feel semi-human again after two nights of going out. Location-wise, it's close to a metro station and just a few stops from Alexanderplatz. There's also a tram a few minutes' walk away that takes you into town. A Lidl is also two minutes' walk down the road. Food-wise, there's also a few options nearby including a good burger restaurant, Indian restaurant, falafel restaurant, kebabs, pizza joint, etc.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
