2/10 Poor

First off when I read the room description it was very misleading. It sounded like it was a private room for 2 people with a shared bathroom. However it turned out to be one single capsule bed for 2 in a room with like 8 other beds. The shower area in the shared bathroom was dirty. There was dirt all over the floor. The room also did not have WiFi. You had to go into the lobby area to get a WiFi connection. You had to put the sheets on yourself; the bed wasn’t made. We heard multiple people having sex in the room throughout the night. The staff was rude and you need to leave a deposit for everything. Towels, locks etc. Everything cost extra. Nothing was included not even a cup of coffee. We even had to pay for luggage storage to leave our bags there before check in. The only positive thing was the location, close to the nightlife. I’d definitely never stay here again though.

This was my first time staying in a hostel, and I would definitely consider staying here again. We booked a 5-bed dorm as three friends and, luckily, we were all placed in the same room, which was clean and comfortable. I was a bit worried about the shared toilets and bathrooms, but I had no issues at all, everything was tidy and well maintained. The location was also super convenient, within walking distance of Berghain and the train stat

Ideal place to stop

Trendy hostel more suited to 18-35 but a friendly vibe and good bar. Friendly staff and airey rooms. Ideal location as quiet neighbourhood not far from night life

Great place to stay for a short time

The only issue I had was the very uncomfortable beds and pillows. The rest was great, particularly the staff.

I stayed in a three bedroom Girls dorm with an ensuite barhroom which was rad and had the room mostly to myself, but for one late night roommate who only came to drop and pickup a bag after what I assume was some Berlin raving. Good on ya. I only stayed one night during low season and found Sunflower had everything I needed, comfortable bed with clean linens, what looked like a sociable atmosphere downstairs, good access to transport links. Most importantly, after a long day of travel I found the Canadian at reception to be such a wonderful, kind and helpful human. Management take note, not all hostel receptions are this awesome, welcoming and pleasant. It was so nice to be greeted and helped like that in yet another new and foreign city. Thank you so much!

6/10 Good

The best thing i can say about this hostel is LOCATION. Located in walking distance to many nightclubs, subway, supermarket, restaurants. Especially one of the best place for Berghain visitors. Wi-Fi was really poor, almost not worked during my stay which is very annoying for me. It ruined all my experience cause i had to go to subway station when i had to have important voice calls on whatsapp every single time. I talked about this with one of the employees and she told me that other guests are also complaining about that but nothing to do with this. And using lockers after check out should not cost money… Cleaning was also not enough in toilets. Rooms and bed was ok.

Awesome place to stay! I stayed to start off the weekend and attended Berghain for Friday and through Sunday for Klubknact which I stayed at through Monday. So it was a great place to come in and out without feeling like a disturbance since most visitors are have the same experience. The staff was hit or miss; some were very kind and helpful while others were not hospitable. Great place for solo travelers or groups! I recommend and would definitely stay here again.

Lovely, lovely staff! Quite a reasonably priced stay, which was very comfortable. Only critique was that the bedroom decor was a bit outdated in our room but for the price it was pretty good
Verified review

2/10 Poor

When you prepay for a multi-night reservation, you have paid for exclusive access to that space for the entire agreed period. Sunflower Hostel Berlin operates under a contradictory policy that attempts to have it both ways. Following a delayed arrival on a multi-day stay booked through Expedia, the hostel unilaterally canceled my entire reservation and refused to issue a refund for the unused days, claiming their internal rules allow them to retain 100% of the funds. ​When I called the front desk to challenge this, the female receptionist on duty was completely unprofessional, called me "crazy," and hung up on me. Shortly after, management sent a written message issuing a formal property ban (Hausverbot) under a fabricated pretext of "threatening behaviour" simply to shut down a valid billing dispute. ​The fundamental flaw and legal violation here are obvious: a business cannot unilaterally terminate a contract, bar a customer from entering, refuse to provide the accommodation, and still keep 100% of the money for services it refuses to render. Under German law (§ 537, § 812, and § 309 Nr. 5 BGB), private house policies cannot override statutory consumer protections, and retained amounts must strictly account for saved operational expenses. Locking out a customer while pocketing their money is a breach of contract. Their company policy is in clear violation of german consumer law.

Everything was good, I slept really well at night. The only problem was the shower drain was clogged in the shower stalls that I used, but it did not affect me much.

Avoid at all cost!

This would have to be the worst place to stay! It was dirty, noisy throughout the night and unsafe. Security was nonexistent as drifters from the street had access to enter the building. I would never recommend this place!
Verified review

2/10 Poor

Not once—in my 4-night stay—was my single room (not a dorm) cleaned. Bed linen was dirty with chocolate (hopefully) stains. And you must give a 10€ deposit for bedsheets and a tiny towel, which must be brought back at checkout. Worst: it’s overpriced when compared to other (better) hotels in the area. This describes SunFlower best: “Charge 'em for the lice, extra for the mice/Two percent for looking in the mirror twice/Here a little slice, there a little cut/Three percent for sleeping with the window shut”. Stay away!
