A nice stay without bad surprise

The area is full of nice cafes and restaurants and not far from the center! Accessing the room with a code is pretty convenient. The bed was comfortable:)

The floor was already pretty dusty and we had no cleaning or towels exchange for 5 days (just vacuum at least). The bathroom door did not close properly and the shower was leaking from the side (so always a lake after a shower).

Nice stay in a lovely area. Very cool but some hiccups.

A clean, nicely furnished and equipped room. Shower was lovely and extra touches with coffee machine was lovely. Staff were helpful when I forgot code to get into building. However this was only possible via another guests patience in contacting. Without this o would’ve slept outside!!

Mezzanine is clever but precarious design. Hit my head on a corner and was sober!! Linking TV to phone in order to’cast’ was a no go. Staff didn’t come back to me in good time to fix.

Nice option with self check in

The style and design is high class! Balcony with the nice view. High quality mattress. Clean

In the hallway the door to the right has a sign of the elevator, but the elevator inside doesn't work. There is another elevator near the stairs which works, but you won't know it straight away. It was very stressful as my baby was desperate to entry. Make the signs correctly please. Also all pillows were too big, it could be a few smaller ones

Modern, clean, comfy

The room arrangement was great. Need to climb a bit but I loved it. Great shower. Lots of free coffee.

Check-in with a person would have been preferred but it all worked great.

Great for the short term!

The no-fuss check-in process was amazing! It was close to a train station and all the great pubs, restaurants, and cafes. They also have a yoga mat to borrow which my partner really appreciated.

The room was smaller than in the photos. The kitchenette and desk area had some essentials but felt lacking for 2 people. Wouldn't recommend staying for longer as there are no laundry facilities.

I wish they had some recycling in the hotel. All i found in the garbage room was huge pile of all the trash in the same pile. If this hotel has Any green labels it is only greenwash :-) otherwise really cool place. Hotel without Any stuff basically. You just use your private code to get into your room. Works fine!

Nice room and good location

The room was very nice and self-checkin was very easy

The noise from the road really affected my sleep. They were nice enough to provide earbuds but it didn’t really help

Great location, we liked it most from all the Numa stays we tried in Berlin. Comfortable bed.

Little dusty inside and some spots on the walls from something splashing. The door downstairs that lead to the yard, doesn't open from outside with the code, got stuck there while having a cigarette, same happened for several other people, some sign on the door would help :)

Very good

+ Very clean, comfortable rooms Decent noise cancellation despite being located by a busy street Room came with a kettle (a great plus!), tea bags and coffee Tram stop & bio supermarket right outside the building

- Every question you ask on Whatsapp is followed by a request to rate the interaction - this felt aggressive. A huge amount of e-mails prior to checking in - this also felt aggressive. There is limited signage in the building and it's hard to just find your way out. It seemed creepy that there was zero staff around and every question you had needed to go past an automated response system on Whatsapp in general.

It got hot inside very easy, but that wasn't too much of an issue since we didn't stay during summer

Great four night stay.

Room and bathroom were modern, clean, spacious and had all we needed . Appreciated the Tea/Coffee provision. Bed and pillows very comfortable. Very quiet inside the hotel. Good location near Ostkreuz railway station which has a direct link with the airport.

We were unable to get the room safe to work. We could not work out how to order breakfast.

Loved it - great stay!

Really enjoyable stay and experience at Numa Boxer. Firstly, there was a lot of thought put into the customer service of each studio / apartment, from drinks in the fridge, to coffee and tea, to little chocolates - the little things make such a difference. The apartments themselves were modern, clean, well presented and great to stay in. The beds were comfortable, including the sofa bed in one of our rooms (which can be rare). The check in was super easy, online with no hassle and we didn’t have any issues getting into the building or our apartments which were accessed via a code. There was always a friendly security sat in the entrance of the aparthotel which made it feel very safe. Location was perfect, transport is very well developed in Berlin so we had no issues of getting around the city, visiting lots of different areas - none of which were far from numa boxer. It was also really handy to have on site luggage storage to store our bags / suitcase whilst we explored on our last day. If we ever visited Berlin again, we’d definitely stay at numa boxer - it was one of the most affordable stays for our time yet we think the standard was much better than most we’d seen!

Very very minor points would be that if you have neighbours above you, you can hear their footsteps but this is no fault of the aparthotel. I also think it could be worth adding in a screen in the bath tub overhead shower as water can splash out onto the floor.

Pleasant

Clean and nice looking room, very spacious and pretty quiet. A lot of things are thought through. WhatsApp automations worked fine. Overall a good idea to digitalize things, but it also has its limits.

I didn't know that I needed to choose my breakfast much earlier, luckily the automated choice was ok. However, the menu is very limited and too expensive for what you get. As they put it quite early in front of the door you will be eating warm yoghurt and a melted not so fresh Brie in a dry bread. I preferred to go to a bakery close by instead. The shower water in my room had a funny smell, not very appealing. Check-in was a bit annoying when trying to take a picture of your ID. Never worked for me or my colleagues. Uploading then somehow worked at some stage.

Would recommend!

Location, comfort

Cleaners came in before 11, I said that check out is at 11 and that I still needed a few minutes (I repeat, it wasn't 11 yet), they were a bit weird about it at first it seemed but then understood. I didn't like them coming in before 11..

The WIFI was really bad. I couldn't use it for work. I complained about it but it wasn't fixed. Also the tv's cast never worked.

The main problem was the internet. The rest was great!

Modern apartment in a lively neighbourhood

The accommodation is less than 10 minutes walk from the main train station, easy to get to the city center or to the airport. The building is in a quiet side street, shops are few minutes away and plenty of restaurants and bars as well. My room was very new and clean, comfy bed, heating and good wifi. The check in was super easy, got the check in codes on the day of arrival. There is no reception but they are available on whatsapp all the time.

I've got an email one day before arrival saying the wifi strength is bad in the building. I made me very worried, since I had to work during my stay. I reached out the customer service and they said, it has improved in the last few days, I don't have to worry. And indeed, the wifi worked perfectly fine.

Great modern living in vibrant neighborhood!

A common room with a computer and printer would be useful. This is the only service what I need from the reception time to time.
