Hotel Pension Kastanienhof Berlin wifi?

Has anyone stayed at this hotel recently- in past 3 months or so?
I am trying to figure out what the internet set up is there and it is not clear at all on their website or on other booking/review sites. Sounds like it may just be one wired connection in room but wireless in public spaces.

I have emailed the hotel but don't expect an answer til tomorrow (their reception closes at 6 PM I guess)
I believe RS Tours stay there and was hoping someone here might have recent experience to share.
We will be there for 5-6 nights -if it were just 1 one or 2 nights I would not care! but we will need good/free internet access with a longer stay.
Thanks

Hi Christine - we were there early October. The wifi (room) was strong - you did need to sign into it with your given password each time. They only allowed a couple of passwords per room and each password, as I recall, was only good for one device. We had 2 iphones and 2 ipads - so we didn't use wifi for the iphones while in the hotel. You couldn't use the same password for one device one day and another the next.

Maybe if you asked at the desk they would give you another password for another device if you need one.

Julie's post is great news. My mother and I loved our stay at the Kastanienhof in September 2012, but at that time, there was WiFi in the lobby only. There was wired internet in each room; I had a netbook so that was fine, but that won't work with phones/tablets.

I'm glad to hear they've updated!
