The hotel offers interesting rooms totally covered in dark red velvet with velvet swags, featuring 2 life-size mannequins in black lace, although the strong smell of cigarettes was a downside. The service was very friendly and helpful, easy to contact only by mail. The location is fantastic, with everything in the center within walking distance, but being next to the train tracks is a drawback. The dining experience, although not included, was very good, especially the coffee. Overall, a unique stay with some minor setbacks.

The hotel was a mix of fun and inconvenience. The rooms were unique with hidden features but suffered from high noise levels due to the close proximity to the train tracks. The service was good during the day but lacked consistency at night. The location was ideal for sightseeing but noisy due to the nearby railway bridge. The dining experience had its ups and downs with additional costs. Overall, a stay with ups and downs.

The hotel is nicely situated near the bustling center of Berlin, with convenient connections to historical sites and the Hauptbahnhof. The surreal Art surroundings create a unique atmosphere, although the proximity to train tracks can lead to occasional noise disturbances.

The single room I stayed in was small but adequate, though I noticed some dust on the tables and at the ventilation fan. However, it was almost silent during my stay, which was a plus.

The service was quite informative, with stories shared about artists and city life via email. I appreciated the logistics provided, but it would have been better if the staff had forewarned guests about potential noise due to bare floor boards. Despite this, the welcome drink and tours/ticket assistance were commendable.

The hotel's location right by the center of the Parliament District made it easy to explore key government agencies, ministries, and Charité. Being within walking distance from the Hauptbahnhof was incredibly convenient, even though the train tracks proximity could be a bit loud at times.

I absolutely loved staying at this hotel! The courtyard view from my room was incredibly picturesque and peaceful. The room itself was lovely, and it was exceptionally clean. The service was top-notch, with friendly and knowledgeable staff who even shared interesting stories about the artists and city life. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the station, bars, and restaurants. However, the train noise was a bit of a downside, even at midnight. The dining options were great, especially at the nearby restaurant Habel am Reichstag. Overall, a wonderful stay with great value for money.
