The price is low and you get what you pay for, which in this case is basically a camping without the tent. Sharing bathroom facilities isn't really a big problem for most people, but it isn't exactly comfortable either.
The wifi was problematic. It didn't have the range nor the power to actually do anything online, which isn't acceptable when you want to plan your day using Yelp for instance.
A major positive for this hotel is the location. It's easy enough to find, Friedrichsfelde Ost (S-Bahn station) is right around the corner and there's a supermarket nearby as well.
There were a lot of lottle issues that irked me. First of all there's the matter of a lack of privacy, as our hotel 'room' couldn't be properly shut. The door had a large window and the blinders failed to completely blind the room. Then there was the matter of me getting an e-mail one week before that a TV-series would be shot at the location, without telling me this involved three nights of simulated parties, with one night lasting until after 3 o clock. Madness.
So, would I recommend Qbe? No, but it is a decent deal for the money. read more
