A good place for a short stay.

Clean, quiet and a good buffet breakfast is included in the stay. Personally I could do without the rolling news screens at breakfast. A great place for a short stay in the centre of Bochum.

If youre going to Bochum or the Rhine-Ruhr area, I'd suggest this place. Newly renovated and the rooms were great There is a Rewe that is open late next door and a couple of great restaurants. This is a steal and a hidden gem.

Just an OKAY hotel

This seems to be a new hotel. Check-in was troublesome due to a technical issue with the reservation system. No room service and towel replacement during our 3 days stay. Breakfast was included, but there was limited choice. Other than that, it was fine.
