There's budget travel, then there's communist time warp
If you're looking for a cheap place stay in Europe this summer, Berlin has a bargain for you. The new Ostel hotel offers all the "comforts" of life in the former East Germany. Its rooms — complete with portraits of Socialist Unity Party leaders — feature bed linens, toilets and other fixtures from the old GDR days. The mattresses, thank goodness, are new. You can book a bunk decorated in lovely tones of orange and brown for as little as 9 euros a night.
