Moxy Berlin Ostbahnhof
Staff were really friendly and helpful - overall a nice hotel. Breakfast was mostly continental - with only selected hot items (scrambled eggs, some chicken “nuggets” and baked beans - quite a weird combo). One critique - the bed in room 423 was terrible - it felt like a fold-out bed.
