The bathroom tiles were broken, the entire bathroom was built on a slant so when in the shower you felt like you were falling forward. The toilet seat fell forward while you were on it. Very noisy, no soundproofing at all. Room was small, shower was small. Breakfast was not included and the breakfast was terrible. Went for breakfast at 10 and was told no further food would be made. Eat whats left.. for 18 euro.

The hotel was in a perfect location for the city centre, either to walk or use the U bahn. The room was very clean and the staff super friendly. They also helped us to solve a problem we had with our suitcase which we really appreciated. Thank you! Couldn't recommend the hotel more.

Hotel was ok, breakfast was good! Room was a little dated. Cologne, other than the Cathedral, and old town area was good, but the rest of the city was blah and dreary

The room was big and bathroom was a very good size. I loved the bath. The check in was good and they allowed me to leave my suitcase there as i arrived before check in. The two guys at reception were amazing and friendly and helpful. The room had good natural light. The breakfast in the morning was outstanding with a good selection of foods. The shower was good with plenty of hot water and great pressure. The hotel has a nice vibe and feels comfortable. I could see the manager (or head person) checking everything was ok. I would definitely stay again.

Upon arrival the front desk person clearly had no business being the person greeting people and set a negative tone for our stay. To be fair, the hotel was good. Clean, plenty of towels and hot water. Wifi was good, tv good, bed fine. Good area. The walls snd doors care thin and you will hear everything. It’s in a pretty good location. Pretty much the only reason I wouldn’t recommend or stay there is the staff. Jerks
