Meininger Hotel Berlin Hauptbahnhof

The all-you-can eat breakfast for 6 Euros is the way to go. Rooms are small as most European rooms are, shower no tub, don't expect lots of amenities such as coffee maker, toiletries, washcloths. But it is comfortable enough. There is a new construction right next door which will block the current view. Lots of sites within walking distance. Really good accommodation if you just want a clean bed and shower. Internet is free (wi-fi) but is too slow for laptop, okay for small devices (iPod, smartphones, etc.). We were glad we found this place.

Punti positivi: If you want to be by the Hauptbahnhof (Main Train Station) this is the place. You will be next to the ICE line, the S-bahn, and all other connections.

Punti negativi: The lounge is almost always buzzing with activity. Young crowd, somewhat like a hostel, although we saw a mix.
