EASY Lodges Berlin

Pros +

• Really peaceful
• IMPORTANT! I had a really unpleasant situation happening in this hotel. In every house there are glass windows with at least one ventilation window that does not have a curtain. I was preparing for bed when I heard some noise in the back, I didn't pay attention at first, but then I turned around, looked up and there was a man's face staring down on me through that small upper ventilation window(I was sitting in a shirt and underwear at this moment). I immediately called the reception 6 times and did not get any answer, then I called the police and did not get no advice, but the police just hung up on me calling it a "no big deal". I was afraid to go outside of this small box because In the evening there are no lights and this man could have been standing right outside with a weapon. By the end I managed to see a very nice couple passing by, I ran to them to get help and they kindly brought me in for the night and helped me the best they could. I am a female solo traveler and this was really terrifying experience. About the aftermaths: 1. The security person sitting right outside of the cubes swears he did not see anyone passing by, even though he was sitting right in front of my cube the whole time. 2. The other security guard seemed very, extremely suspicious and concerning to me, as he looked similar to the person staring inside of my window. He tried to touch me purposely while ensuring that I should just go back to sleep and he sees nothing dangerous around and passing by to go around the box. 3. In the morning I have found out that behind my lodge there is a little closed with news papers garage with a stair shelf that someone moved previous night to climb on to reach the window, which can be made in any of all these 60-70 lodges. 4. I called multiple numbers and wrote messages to the reception on which I did not get any answer.
• The holiday feel and privacy in the cabin.

Cons -

• The cabin gets very hot as its directly under the sun and its impossible to be in there if its sunny
• It was a very hard and traumatic experience for me that night, I did not get normal sleep, you feel toty unsafe with this amount of windows and DO NOT stay there alone, as it might be dangerous. I've been travelling through a whole of Europe and it is the first time in my life something like that has happened and I won't be silent. Otherwise, the place has a good location, clean, fresh air, kitchen and cute alcove on the reception. As a group this would be a wonderful stay, only the safety concerns me.
• Toilets being so far away.
