The 6-person dorm I stayed in was very spacious and clean, and the bed was comfortable. The location of the hostel is great, with easy access to public transit, lots of places to eat, and walking distance to certain attractions. I liked that secure storage outside of the dorm room was provided free of charge.
Do not store valuables in the lockers in the rooms. These units should be replaced... it wouldn't take much for someone to simply unscrew both ends to access your things if they really wanted to. There are no women only showers. Men urinate in the showers, and the smell and hygiene are disgusting. There are no paper towels in the washrooms, and the hand dryer is obscenely loud.

The Hostel exceeded all my expectations. It was cozy, roomy and had lots of artistic interior design choices that made me feel in awe of the building itself and I wish I had more time to explore the hostel itself. The beds were very comfy, which was a big surprise to me and the bunk beds were well spread apart giving enough room. There were also separate free lockers in the basement of the building, which needs a code from the reception. The staff were very helpful and nice and the breakfast was also generous, especially with the time for late risers. The Toilettes and bathrooms are outside of the rooms (so don't forget you key card) but provided enough privacy as the showers were in different locked stalls and toilettes were separate (that was the 3rd floor).
You need to bring a big padlock for the locker in the room and it can be loud when opening the windows to let fresh air inside and I had some issues with my bed socket and I wish the beds had curtains for more privacy.

Loved staying in the 10 bed dorm, definitely depends on who’s in the room with you but with 10 beds you have heaps of chances to meet great people to hangout with. the staff were very nice and helpful when we asked questions, great to talk to in general. location was asp so great, lots of food places, some open until late (5am) so great for after going out, also there is a tram stop right outside the building, as well as one right around the corner so super easy to get places although my stay i didn’t go to any of the hostel events i did love that they had things going on every night, if i had one more night i 100% would’ve gone, they looked fun
Only thing i didn’t like were the shared unisex showers for a whole floor, they were dirty and often had things left behind in them. also the shower pressure is strangely high so it’s hard to not get your hair or clothes wet ahah. wasn’t actually crazy bad, was fine it did the job, still would 100% recommend coming here

The Circus Hostel is a charmingly weird place with a brewpub in the basement and more David Hasselhoff than you're expecting. The breakfast buffet add-on is worth it, I think, and I'm not even a coffee drinker. If you're coming for the Berlin Marathon, it's pretty easy to get to the starting area from the hostel, and for your friends/family, the race goes right through the square at about the 9km mark, IIRC.
If you don't bring a towel, you can get one from the front desk... for 2 euro. Just give the people towels, come on now.

The beds were comfortable, loved having a wardrobe and beds felt quite private. I stayed in 3 different rooms over my stay, 4 bed, 6 bed and 8 bed. Really impressed with spaciousness of 4 bed with nice view. Perfect location near all public transport options. Showers were clean and never had an issue waiting for anyone.
Had an issue with one staff member Marlene when I tried to extend my stay I found her rude and disrespectful. I found people in hostel wanted to be sociable but there was not many areas other than smoking area to hang out. Most friends I made were from my dorm so book a bigger dorm if you want to make friends. There’s no kitchen or laundry which is fine but there is laundromat round the corner. We kept the windows open all night due to the heat which meant was really noisy but I am used to city noise so this didn’t keep me awake and hostel provides ear plugs.

Very good location. Excellent cleaning Excellent Employees Clean bathrooms (several)
There's no kitchen, they spent so much on the decoration (which is beautiful) and didn't build a kitchen. Or a space with a microwave, tables. Thus, it would be used for socializing and for eating. Many times I had to (and others) have to eat in the room. There is only one common space, which is the bar... but not everyone drinks, so another space for socializing would be nice. The rostel also felt very cold... only in the rooms did I realize that the heaters were on. A lot of people were sick, had the flu... I think that was why too. It was hot in the room, went out into the bathroom or hallway - cold. I noticed that guests in my room got the flu because of this.

I loved the location, it was perfect. Tons of great restaurants, supermarkets, pharmacies, and thrift stores are just a few steps away. The staff was marvelously helpful and friendly. The hostel has a coffee shop and a small bar that allows you to be productive and have a good time on the terrace if you are working on projects. Shared spaces like showers and bathrooms were always clean. Kudos to the bartender who was so fun to chat with on my last day. You have to try the beer!
There was not a noise warning when booking my room. The 10 people shared room was noisy even with the windows closed because of the tram outside and ambulances. However, it was impossible to keep windows closed because it is necessary to have airflow, especially in a room with 10 beds. I would have liked to know this in advance and consider it when choosing the room. The front desk provided me with earplugs (Thank you!)

I expected a big city central hostel to be rather anonymous and "formal", but boy, was I wrong! The vibe in the Circus hostel was absolutely amazing, and the staff always smiling and super helpful. They offered coffee, gave advice on what to wear to different clubs, and truly walked an extra mile for the safety of the guests and their belongings. They have a special room with code lockers, also lockers in the dorm rooms, and an additional safe at the reception if needed. Downstairs there is a bar which is a great opportunity to meet other travellers. The lobby is also great to socialize and/or work on your laptop. The U-Bahn stop is just in front of the hostel, so it is easy to get anywhere in the city, but many sightseeing spots are close enough to walk to them.

for a 8 people shared dorm, it was quite peaceful and somehow guests were nice too - the area and the atmosphere somehow brings out good in people, as compared to a dingy rundown hostel - i think its better to spend a bit more and get a decent hostel than go cheap and get anxious.
noise in the night - and the locking system is too complicated. If you have heavy luggage going downstairs to storage can be a pain. Some of the coffee and breakfast attendants seemed a bit ready to lecture you for v small things like using credit card for small payments. Not all of us carry cash around so wish they would be a bit more accomodative to tourists - that being said the "foreign" crew managing the cafetaria were amazing and lovely people.

"I had a wonderful stay at this location, perfectly situated near Alexanderplatz. It’s just two subway stops away or a short walk, making it super convenient. The area is right in the heart of Berlin, with a safe and vibrant neighborhood offering plenty of food options and shops. The staff were incredibly friendly and always ready to help with any questions. I stayed in a private room, which was a great size for a solo traveler. The room was minimalistic, clean, and thoughtfully designed. One of the highlights was the bar on the ground floor—a cozy space where you can relax and enjoy your time without the need to go out. Overall, it was a comfortable and enjoyable stay, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Berlin!"
