One of the best places I've ever stayed. Frank's pension is clean & cosy and the decor is amazing (though if you're used to beige hotel rooms your eyes may take a while to adjust!). It's also well located whether you want to sight-see, relax in local restaurants and bars or stay out all night in clubs. But chances are you'll end up spending an hour or two each day with your hosts in the pension's shopfront – Frank and Manfred (who also have the Crystal Ball gallery over the road) made us feel instantly at home and supplied helpful advice, interesting chat and lots of coffee! Will be recommending to friends travelling to Berlin.
