Description

Students live in an on-campus residence hall with a mix of CIEE and local students and resident assistants who help students adjust to life in Berlin and assist in providing a safe, comfortable living environment. Students live in double, triple, or quad rooms with en-suite bathrooms and shower facilities. Students can prepare their own meals in the full kitchens. CIEE provides basic cooking utensils and cleaning supplies. Students also may get coffee, tea, soft drinks, and snacks at the on-site café, or explore the myriad restaurants in the Kreuzberg neighborhood. Lounges and kitchens in the residence hall allow students to mix and mingle over meals, cultural activities, study groups, and special events. Larger common areas are on the ground floor and inner courtyards offer comfortable spaces to work and relax.

The U-Bahn station “Gneisenaustraße” is very close to the property, as is the U-Bahn station „Mehringdamm“.

To get to the TU Berlin, students can take the U7 to “Berliner Straße”, and change to take the U9 to “Ernst Reuter Platz”. This take 35 minutes.

The location is brilliant for easy access by foot or by public transport to many sights and places of interest in Berlin, and has a great selection of restaurants nearby e.g. on Bergmannstraße. Getting from the airports From Tegel:

Follow the pictures of the bus from the arrivals halls to the bus stand outside the terminal. There is a ticket machine available outside. You will need a single ticket for zones A and B, which will cost 2,80€. The machines can operate in English. If you would prefer, you can buy a ticket from the tourist information booth inside the terminal. Just make sure you validate or stamp your ticket as you board the bus. The bus X9 is right outside the terminal building. Take this to the first stop, which is U-Bahn “Jakob-Kaiser-Platz”. Enter the U-Bahn station and take the U7 in the direction of “Rudow”. This will take you all the way to Gneisenaustr. Station, which is right next to the accommodation. From Schönefeld

Take the bus X7 to the terminal “Rudow”. You will need a ticket for the bus. There are ticket machines available inside the terminal building. You will need a single ticket for zones A, B and C, which will cost 3,40€. The machines can operate in English. If you would prefer, you can buy a ticket from the tourist information booth inside the terminal. Make sure you stamp your ticket with the date when you get on the bus. Once you have taken the bus to “Rudow” go downstairs into the U-Bahn station, and take the U7 in the direction of “Rathaus Spandau” (the only direction you can go in, as this is the terminus) all the way to “Gneisenaustr.” Station, which is just over the road from the accommodation.
