The Sunflower Hostel

Located in the district of Friedrichshain, the Sunflower Hostel makes for a perfect base for those more interested in exploring the avant-garde galleries, bars and clubs of East Berlin. In fact the crowd here is definitely more cool independent traveller than tick-box tourist types, with prices starting for as little as 10 Euros a night in the off season and the rooms are comfy and brightly decorated. Other bonuses? Well there's a foosball table and you're in walking distance of the Berlin Wall.

Very good hostel. I was there in the summer (2007) Happy to recommend!
