Berlin has two Generator Hostels. One smack bang in the heart of the city on Oranienburger Strasse – a street featuring a synagogue, a park and the hulking remains of Berlin's city centre punk scene, Tacheles. The other hostel on Storkower Strasse is in the elegantly wasted part of town known as Prenzlauerberg, tucked between Stalinist architecture, artisanal coffee shops and Berlin's last remaining squats.
