The Base Berlin ONE
Berlin|0.73km from Pocket Park Pankow
We stayed in this newly opened complex for a week and were very satisfied. The 4 out of 5 stars are because there are a few little things that could either be improved or that you should be aware of beforehand. But all of these points are “complaining on a high level”. But more on that later. The entire complex consists of several parts. In addition to the ”hotel operation”, there are long-term apartments, co-working spaces, a fitness room and a laundry room with washing machines and dryers. We stayed in the hotel rooms. The rooms are large, spacious, modern and, having opened a few months ago, are still completely new. The disadvantage of the rooms is the fact that there is no air conditioning. Since we had temperatures well over 30 degrees over the weekend and the sun hit our room and the black window frames from midday onwards, it was extremely hot until sunset. Only completely closing the windows and darkening them with curtains provided some relief. Of course, this only works if you're out and about during the day and don't use the room, like we did. There was no closet for us. You can certainly cope with this for short stays, but two people for a week completely out of the travel bag is a bit chaotic. In addition, the bathroom was missing a few hooks for hanging up bags, used towels, etc. Room cleaning and bed linen and towel changes only take place every 7 days for environmental reasons, which we very much welcomed. If you would like new towels beforehand, you can order this at reception. There is a small breakfast in the hotel, but we didn't use it. That's why I can't say anything about it. What I missed, however, was the opportunity to have a beer in the evening after returning. There is a drinks machine, but it only sells non-alcoholic drinks. It would be nice to add some beer here too. There is no bar in the evenings. The snack machines were usually 80 percent empty. One would also like the operators to refill more regularly. Unfortunately, the terrace was filled with music from 8 a.m. on weekend mornings. Since our room was above, we had to close the windows, which could have been avoided given the heat. This wasn't the case during the week, as far as we could tell. The hotel is very well connected to public transport on foot through the backyard of the ”Rathaus-Center-Pankow”. In 5 minutes you can reach the tram and bus. In 10-15 minutes on foot to the S-Bahn and U-Bahn. There are also parking spaces on site that can be booked. From our point of view, all of the small points of criticism are ”complaints on a high level” and in no way deny the quality of the accommodation. We felt comfortable and will definitely come back because, in our opinion, the price and performance are just right.
Excellent
