Rooms are comfy, breakfast was really good and the service is at the highest level.
Nearby you will find bus stops and shops about 3/4 minutes away.
More demanding customers may find fault with something. However, it is also worth looking at the price of the rooms. If someone requires a 5-star room, let them go to a 5-star hotel.

What a terrible customer service. Waiting in a line to check-in for 20 minutes just to be rejected and sent to another line with 15 people in it, because the receptionist ended her shift. What a rude and unprofessional attitude. Do not recommend this hotel.

My Experience: I booked 2 nights via website for about 26€ then at front desk I added one more night and it became 46.31€ and it was crazy jump for one added night
Front desk: my check in was December 4th about 9pm. In front desk it was really unwelcome. There was female stuff responsible for reception and behaving very unpleasant and unwelcome seems she didn't like what she is doing but other days was different
Elevator: dirty, bad looking and functionaly not perfect
Room: 8 persons in one master room separated in two 4 when you add how much these 8 pay for room totally you understand this is even more expensive than luxury hotel but what you get is very cheap looking place
Overall Idea: for staying few nights and pay less money (don't add one night in front desk) and you have no more choice even I recommend other a&o places

It was a beehive in the breakfast area and the staff didn’t do anything about it. Me and my friends probably counted 10-15 bees in the roof. Many bees even flied to us while we were eating forcing us to leave. I do NOT recommend this hotel at all.

As the first room was smelly and bathroom a little messy, probably due to the guest's usage, I asked for changing room and the second room was clean & neat. The staffs were quick to response on requests.
Location is a little far from tram station but place is happening downstair but yet still quiet at rooms.

It was dirty and smelled bad, had to make the bed yourself, which is not a big issue I suppose. The rooms were small but usable. the shower had mold in the walls and smelled disgusting. The toilet smelled, Almost like it never got cleaned. And the sink was fine. The water didn't work from 12 in the evening till 6ish in the morning.
The lighting sucked.

Terrible experience! I wouldn't give it more than 1-2 stars. The room temperature on the 6th floor was unbearably hot, with no fans provided, even though we had our baby with us. We requested two rooms on the same floor, but they were assigned on different floors and far apart. The bathrooms were also dirty and stink! We are definitely not coming back!

All in all, better than I expected for this price. It's looking modern, but a few hints of frequent usage are obvious. Charging devices in the chambers can be difficult, I had to go to the lobby for free sockets. Staff is exceptionally friendly, but queues were rather long at 3 pm. Public transport to Berlin is frequent (every few minutes), but it was a rather long ride for my taste.
Again, nothing I would complain about considering the price.

My family and I recently stayed at the a&o Hostel Berlin Kolumbus, and I'm happy to share that our experience was much better than what we had anticipated. From the first step into the hostel, the friendliness and professionalism of the staff were immediately noticeable, with Kalina at reception deserving a special mention. Her dedication to making our stay comfortable and effortless was truly remarkable.

The family room we were provided with was not only clean but also thoughtfully equipped to cater to a family traveling with children. The inclusion of reading lamps and USB charging ports by the children's beds was a particularly considerate touch, showing the hostel's commitment to accommodating guests of all ages. These amenities made our evenings more comfortable and enjoyable.

Initially, I was somewhat apprehensive due to previous reviews mentioning issues with bed sheets around the Easter weekend. However, I was relieved to find that whatever the problem might have been, it had been thoroughly addressed. Our bedding was spotless and cozy, ensuring a restful night's sleep for my entire family.

Despite the modest name, our experience at a&o Hostel Berlin Kolumbus was far from just okay. It was evident that the staff, particularly Kalina, are dedicated to responding to guests' needs and feedback, ensuring any past issues are resolved quickly and efficiently.

For families in search of a comfortable, clean, and welcoming place to stay, a&o Hostel Berlin Kolumbus is definitely worth considering. It stands as a testament to how attentive staff and well-thought-out amenities can significantly enhance the overall hostel experience, making it memorable and pleasant.

Family room for persons were booked but :
1- no elevator to the 8th floor, although i have kids and big baggages to carry on stairs.
2- Bed wasn't comfy at all, and we couldn't sleep. It's also extremely hot as there was no air conditioning.
3 - People were sitting literally in corridors and talking and gave us a hard time to walk.
4- For the money paid, it's absolutely a waste of money and will not be recommended.
