There was no kitchen available, but you can get hot water for tea at the reception. The pods were clean but they have a very thin mattress. The showers and bathrooms were kept clean even though the pods were all full. I love the cafe onsite.
The Generator Mitte surpassed our expectations - great food and drink, lovely, helpful staff, comfortable beds and the most perfect location! Music was a little loud for morning coffee in the cafe but otherwise no complaints and we would stay there again.
centrally located, close to the Berlin main station,

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
We enjoyed our stay here everything was great, location, room and staff.
We had an issue with shower when we first arrived and reported to reception straight away and the maintenance person was there within 10minutes sorting the problem!
Only thing I would say as we were in a twin room could've done with somewhere to put clothing whilst we were on our stay.
The lockers could’ve been bigger as it was tough to put my suitcase in there so I had to end up putting it on my bunk bed and setting it next to the window so I could sleep.
The pod option is nice for a short stay. Quiet, convenient, and well designed.
The staff is very friendly and supportive, and never hesitated to answer any questions and give advice.
There are many restaurants and shops in the area and it’s a stone throw from the public transport.
