"The Bensimon features very large apartments nicely renovated. The communication process was superb. The room was spotless and quiet. It overlooked a central courtyard characteristic of Berlin apartments. It was easy to get to by Tram. We would stay again."

"I came to Germany for a trade fair at Messe Berlin and found hotel prices during the event incredibly high. For 22–24 September, I was quoted €378 for a single bed in a five-person hostel room. Then I found this hotel in Potsdam for €414 for two nights.
Getting to the fair was easy: the tram stop is about 200 metres away, and with a transfer to the S7, the journey took around an hour. My room was clean, comfortable and quiet. Mr Nicholas also replied quickly whenever I had a question.

"Not great tbh. The room was way smaller than pictured, could almost touch three walls at the same time. The outlets were stupidly placed. You have a high bed but lets place all the lights somewhere you cant reach so you gotta use a ladder in the dark or climb up and down a lot. The nightlight didnt really work but at least that meant i could charge my phone so that was nice.
The toilet or zink leaked so the bathroom floor was just wet, you only had 4 minutes of hot water but at least the water...

"The apartment was awesome. The self check in was smooth with all details sent on the day ready for our arrival. The destination was perfect as an excellent base to travel around. The underground station was just round the back of the apartment making it easy to get where we needed to be each day.
The area also has some good supermarkets within 5 minutes walking distance.
Customer service was very quickly sorted out, for any minor issues, via sending messages and replies were received within...

"We liked that the room is large, clean and that there is a lot of natural light.
We disliked that there is a stair leading to a second floor/room that were weren't aware about. We were concerned of the guests upstairs accessing our apartment. Owner was responsive and gave us clarity, however these conditions weren't disclosed when we rented the space.
The check in process (finding the apartment by pictures) was tedious and odd as was the shower in the apartment which only had a hand shower that...

"We loved our stay here, and the staff had plenty of wonderful insights into the city. The only issue we had was the AC didn’t work that well even though we could hear it turn on"
"Hotel location was perfect, walkable to many locations and public transport. Excellent breakfast with plenty of choice. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. Only criticism was how warm the room was, they don't have proper air-con so very limited in trying to cool the room down - if we were staying in the summer this would have been a real issue."
"The hotel was very clean and modern. The reception staff when we arrived were efficient but not especially welcoming.
The room had very comfortable beds, was clean and tidy, but the lighting in the room was terrible - very dark.
The pool is very small but pleasant, but the changing facilities in the spa were very cramped.
The location of the hotel is excellent - very central and walking distance of most of the major sights.
The restaurant was excellent for breakfast - fantastic selection on the buffet each morning which was all delicious, and good coffee. The only let down was one morning we came down they couldn’t find us a table because they were catering for a conference party and put us in the atrium public seating area away from the restaurant and expected us to walk back and forth up and down steps with our selection from the buffet which was not ideal because the hotel was so crowded.
We had one evening meal on the first night which was tasty but small menu, small portions and overpriced compared to other local restaurants. The cocktails were good but again pricey.
Overall a great first trip to Berlin thank you."
