This is a so-called disposable camera, it's a standard model with flash, still available. This one was offered by a Berlin hotel. It's a simple plastic focus free camera. After taking all the pictures, the whole camera goes to the processing lab, they crack it open and the body is disposed of. There are different models and stylings with or without flash, but basically they are all the same. It's very small and light.

Its main features are:

Wide angle plastic lens, 27 exp., focus free, 1m-
Shutter ~1/100
Size 105 x 55 x 33,  Weight 113 gr

These are the ultimate basics of a disposable camera, focus free, single shutter speed and fixed aperture. Point and shoot only. Modern film is quite flexible and modern labs can adapt when scanning, so there will be acceptable results.
