Almodovar Biohotel, Berlin

The room felt incredibly spacious, providing ample room to move around comfortably. The bed and pillows exceeded my expectations in terms of comfort, offering one of the best night's sleep I've had in a hotel. Accessing both the hotel and my room was hassle-free, ensuring a smooth check-in experience. I particularly appreciated the selection of high-quality cosmetics provided in the room, adding a touch of luxury to my stay. Additionally, the complimentary teas, coffee, and water were a thoughtful gesture that enhanced my overall enjoyment. Furthermore, I had a positive experience with the hotel staff regarding a forgotten item. Their communication was prompt and helpful, and they efficiently assisted me in arranging for a friend to retrieve it. This level of service truly exemplified their commitment to guest satisfaction.

While our overall experience at the hotel was quite pleasant, we did notice a lingering scent on the floor that resembled fish. It seemed to be associated with the cleaning supplies used, but nonetheless, it was a bit off-putting.

+ comfortable bed & pillows + like the idea of checking in digitally + luggage storage free of charge + friendly, international housekeeping staff (also offered to help me when my code wasn’t working on the first day) + great location with lots of stores, restaurants around + Free water, coffee, tea + I like the idea of saving on unnecessary cleaning days during the stay and thus saving resources + laundry room with extras like tea, coffee, clean sheets etc when needed + Mini fridge I didn’t expect + tram right in front of the door

— the provided code wasn’t working at my assigned room which led to me having to contact staff online to sort it out (took about ten minutes, but it wasn’t a good look) — the floor wasn’t really clean, I had one of those loft rooms and the steep stairs leading up to the bed were full of dust and debris — the rooms really are poorly isolated. Even with the windows closed and my own expensive earplugs in, there’s still lots of sounds passing through. I got lucky with my neighbors as they were pretty quiet — the fan/ climate control in the room is not working, so it got stuffy in there. Can’t open the windows at night if you want to be able to sleep so… wouldn’t recommend for anybody to come here during summer — the fire alarm randomly went off at 2AM and was so loud. Firefighters said it was a false alarm after about ten minutes of us standing in the cold in the middle of the night. I think at a regular hotel with staff working 24/7 this would have went down much smoother and safer, as a bunch of int ernational travelers didn’t even leave their rooms during the event. — TV couldn’t connect to Streaming Services — loud tram right in front of the door (my windows wee facing the main street)

Rooms are very spacious and comfortable, you have a laundry room as well as all necessary equipment such as coffee cups.

Since our room was situated on the street whhich is high volume of noise, was little bit more hard to sleep. I have contact the property management with a request to change a location of the room for inside of the backyard but was not able to provide us a another one. Everything else was taken care out.

Loved the place. Nice design, very clean, very well organized with the check in and check out. Quick responses via WhatsApp. Loved the balcony in my room. Loved the facilities, there is everything you need, iron and iron desk can be taken from the facilities room. Coffee, milk and tea are in the room. Location was also good, close to the Ostkreuz station.

There is a tram station right in front of the rooms, so if you keep the window open, the noise is very loud. But it did not bother me, because the windows were very well sound proof.

Very noisy rooms with low grade windows compared with Stayery next door. Impossible to contact anyone

Well-equipped aparthotel with excellent location and good public transport connections. The PIN code doors are easy to use. Especially liked the self-service free luggage store service, made the day easier. Value for money, I reccomend.

Due to good public transport, the corner room is noisy as the two tram lines meet at the corner.

The property is very cosy. Has all the amenities, good wi-fi and support. Location is very central..

Lovely spacious room, with all the necessary facilities. Very nice décor, lots of natural light. Really comfy bed. Luggage storage on site was really handy and complimentary.

Nothing that we didn’t like, just a couple of nagging things - the bandwidth to stream to the TV didn’t work at all on 2 of the nights. Also the bedroom floor didn’t look like it had been properly cleaned.

The best location in Berlin. All nice restaurants around, Cafés and Shops. The apartment has everything u need, comfy bed, huge bathroom n nice convinient kitchen.

There can be some noise from the other apartments or from the street.

Keyless entry. Regular Whatsapp updates. Comfy bed. Friendly cleaning staff.

1) Lack of daily clean--there were four in our group and we stayed five nights in two different rooms. We had to go scavenging each morning for extra toilet paper and for a fresh bin liner, etc. A daily clean costs an additional €20 each day. We had two rooms so that would have set us back €40 per day. I asked for a broom to sweep the floor but none was available, so I ended up sweeping with the dustpan and brush. 2) While we were there the fire alarm sounded twice in one day. There is notice in each room warning that triggering the smoke alarm and a visit from the fire brigade incurs a €2,500. This scared the life out of us and put us off cooking in the room. The room is really too small for a kitchenette and so I can understand why the fire brigade have to come around so often. However, we had picked this room largely because we thought we could cook there. So, this was a big disappointment for us. 3) The design of the shower is very poor. The water invariably spills out onto the floor of the bathroom. Mopping up the spillage after each shower was a pain. 4) Wi fi wasn't great on the fourth floor. I had to work from the room one day and the connection was not the most stable.

Everything was perfect

I stayed for 5 nights and I can say it felt really good to have such a nice place to stay and to work from away from home: - The apartment isn’t right in the center of the city so you end up in a more calm part of the town. It has Tram stops very close by (for one of the ways it’s just outside the door) so you can get yourself in city center pretty fast. - The electronic lock is excellent because you don’t have to worry about keys and despite being an apartment building there’s always someone from the workers team acting as security so you feel very safe (although the area feels very safe nonetheless). - All the amenities that are listed in the booking information are available and working correctly. They have some tea and some small snacks as an offer which I found very nice from them. You have shampoo, conditioner, body lotion and wash available and the shower works great. - The bed is very comfortable (with a lot of pillows available) and the AC works really well so the room stays at the temperature you set and feel comfortable with. - There’s supermarkets, restaurants, bakeries, pharmacy all at walking distance. - Check-in: they offer the option of an early check-in if the room is ready for you and since I was coming sooner I asked for it and as promised when the room was ready they promptly informed me I could already use it. - Check-out: it’s very easy and they offer the option to check-out latest at 12pm which is a very nice extra time to stay in bed the morning you leaving. - They provide with a laundry room with low prices for washing and drying your clothes which is great for long trip takers like me who had the opportunity to have a full fresh set of clothes after 1.5 weeks in Berlin.

It’s gonna be a little nitpicky but for me doesn’t take from the amazing experience of staying there: - if you staying for some days it’s a bit annoying not having house keeping just for the sake of taking the trash to the garbage room because you have to take it specifically to a room, separate, etc and does takes you but from the lazy mentality when you are staying away from home. - the entrance door needs a bit of strength and finding the right spot to be opened. Once you get the hang of it it’s easy but does take a specific way of opening. But since there’s always someone from the building management they always were kind to open the door to me the first days I stayed there. - one thing that could be improved is the communication with the costumer because despite having a WhatsApp AI Bot, there are some questions it cannot resolve. Also replying through the booking.com chat could’ve helped me and I think this is my main critique: I had a doubt concerning my online check-in that I end up having to resolve my way without any help and the way I felt correct but could have not worked out that well.

The property checking in and getting in and out system is very easy and feels safe. Our room was fantastic just as advertised. Location great, lovely views were a bonus!

Nothing

Location is amazing, tram stop directly in front of apartment.

Everything was so good

They cancelled our stay on the say day as our arrival. We had to look for a different accommodation, it’s been almost a week now and I’m still waiting for a refund.
