A garden with a barbecue, a table tennis table and a shared kitchen: the Hostel Sandino Summer Camp Berlin works like an urban camp on Sandinostraße, north-east of the centre. It suits groups and travellers who want a social atmosphere and time outdoors.
Location and getting around
The address is Sandinostraße 5, postcode 13055. In a straight line, Berlin Ostbahnhof station is 4.5 km away, the East Side Gallery 4.7 km and Alexanderplatz 5 km. For any of them, public transport or a bicycle is best. Visits to the centre need a daily journey to be planned.
Rooms and facilities
The rooms include bed linen and towels, and some overlook the garden. The bathrooms are shared, with a shower and hairdryer.
Outside there is a garden, a barbecue area and table tennis; inside, a shared lounge and an equipped kitchen. Wi-Fi is free. What you cook can be eaten in the lounge or, in good weather, in the garden.
Who it suits
- A good fit if you travel with a large group and want to cook together.
- Ideal if you want to spend summer evenings in the garden.
- Useful if you like playing table tennis and meeting other travellers.
- Handy on a long trip if you prefer cooking to eating out.
Good to know
Check-in is from 14:00 to 22:00 and on arrival you will be asked for photo ID and a credit card. Check-out is until 11:00. The bathrooms are shared and there is no breakfast. The name suggests it works mainly in summer: confirm dates before booking. More hostels on the site.
