Kathryn H. 2010/10/10	We stayed 3 nights in a double room. The Comfy Corner is small, clean and low key. The atmosphere is very warm and welcoming. Paula is lovely and is generous with conversation and local knowledge. We would definitely stay here again. Bring wine and/or chocolate :)	overall: 98% Atmosphere: 5 Location: 4 Facilities: 5 Staff: 5 Cleanliness: 5 Value For Money: 5 Security: 5

Jurgita t. 2010/03/18	Loved it: firstly, highly recommended by a friend, secondly, I had an incredible price (it turned out to be a mistake, but they really charged me the very small price), thirdly, lovely environment and nice people around. Not easy to find, but they send directions. Would love to come back in summer	overall: 100% Atmosphere: 5 Location: 5 Facilities: 5 Staff: 5 Cleanliness: 5 Value For Money: 5 Security: 5

From outside, it looks like just some strange old building, however, inside there is all you might require. I was a bit concerned when I read the previous review. Fortunately, my experience proves the opposite. The place is rather home-style, but carefully taken care of, the furniture is old and kinda nostalgic, but absolutely not rubbish. Something like looks old and historic, but in fact very strong. The whole atmosphere is very positive and you feel like in childhood (just my impression). I liked that there was a trendy mirror in my room and wooly carpets of the floor. Good WiFi connection, free towels (I had 2), use of kitchen and we even shared dinner with Paula and other guests, who made a real guitar concert after LOL. And of course, Paula is extremely charming! Well, did not want to leave. Read less ▲	overall: 100% Atmosphere: 5 Location: 5 Facilities: 5 Staff: 5 Cleanliness: 5 Value For Money: 5 Security: 5

Read more ► Vorweg gesagt, Paula und ihre zunächst anwesende Vertretung waren sehr nett, freundlich und symphatisch. Das Hostel befindet sich in der Privatwohnung von Paula, sie lebt quasi in einer WG mit wechselnden Mitbewohnern. Und so war es dann auch. 1. Sauberkeit: Insegesamt leider nicht besonders sauber, das Zimmer war relativ sauber, das Bad wurde während unseres Aufenthalts (4 Nächte) nicht sichtbar gesäubert. Die Lebensmittel für das angebotene Frühstück waren nicht mehr in Ordnung (Brot verschimmelt, jenseits MHD). 2. Ausstattung: Zum Zeitpunkt unseres Aufenthaltes war der Fußboden gerade neu verlegt worden, aber noch nicht ganz fertig. Das war nicht so schlimm. Genervt hat, dass es in unserem Zimmer neben einer Nachttischleuchte und einer hübschen aber nicht funktionalen Lichterkette keine Beleuchtung gab. Abends lesen war mit zwei Personen nicht möglich. Eine Glühbirne an der Decke wäre sinnvoller als eine stimmungsvolle Lichterkette. Das Bett glich einer Hängematte, nachdem wir die Matratze auf den Boden gelegt hatten konnte man auch schlafen. Das Mobiliar ist sehr zusammengeschustert und hat Sperrmüllflair. 3. Lage: ruhige Seitenstrasse in Moabit. Eher was für Kenner von Berlin und diejenigen die schon alles Bekannte gesehen haben und jenseits der Szeneviertel wandeln möchten. Für andere Besucher bietet der Stadtteil wenig. Die Entfernung zum Bahnhof ist ganz gut. 4. Preis: Zu teuer für die Lage, zu teuer für Ausstattung und Hygienestatus. Insgesamt hat uns geärgert, dass für nicht wenig Geld in einem Stadtteil mit geringen Mietpreisen unprofessionell ein Hostel betrieben wird. Vielleicht wird es ja mit der Zeit besser....

Everything was really clean--my bed even had satin sheets! And its a really good location close to bus and train stations. If you're interested in seeing what Berlin is really like, not just the postcard version, definitely stay here because you will learn more about the city in a couple nights than you could on twenty guided tours!

Quick connections to all interesting parts of the city, fresh bread in the morning (bought at night I suppose). The only danger - to go to sleep too late (or early) because you might be caught by listening to Paula's stories, reading her book or playing the guitar... Besides, I was very lucky with prices!!!
