The Pension Berlin is a perfect way to experience Kreuzberg. The room was cheap and comfortable and the whole place had more than enough space to hang out in, including a bar and lounge. The location could not be better - in between a gaggle of galleries and an assortment of small bars, biking (or walking) distance from anywhere important and 40m from a train station. Frank was really friendly and helpful and his inimitable interior decorating style makes the whole place special.
