oh, where to sleep?

It’s always good to do some research on where to stay and the prices, before you go on vacation. We also did that this time and City Stay sounded nice and affordable. Our friends stayed at the Wombat which we had also looked at but we had misunderstood the prices. Unfortunately! For 50 euro we got a room with two separate beds. Not the biggest problem, we could have just pushed them together… Then we shared baths and toilets with the rest of the people from our hall. That sucked when you had to go pee at night but it was bearable. The worst part was that the metal bed was so noisy! It made noises when you just sat down or turned around in it which didn’t really encourage for to much romance, if you know what I mean… So don’t stay at the City Stay.

The wombat however was awesome. At the same price, you get a nice room with your own toilet and shower and even a small terrace where you could sit an enjoy a drink and the wonderful view of Berlin. And yes, the bed was problem free, so now I know where to stay next time, The Wombat!

Both hotels/hostels were in a great area near Münzstrasse! Which I will write about later. The best area ever.

Last time we were in Berlin, we stayed at Alcatraz Backpacker hostel. It was very nice too and also in a good area near Kastanienalle. They even have a kitchen where you can cook your own food and it is just very hippie and cozy. That, I could also recommend.
