Exceptionally clean room with a comfortable bed 🛏️. Great location for getting around. Little bit of noise from the café on the corner but nothing to bother me. Spotless bathroom and great shower. Perfect for solo travel as we generally put up with a lot of inconvenience for not travelling with someone. I would do recommend this lovely place!

Centrally situated. In need of repair and a general upgrade. Very basic rooms all looking worn and tired. Not a hotel, more of a BnB guesthouse.

This is not a hotel at all. No lift, no gym, no staff, no laundry, no nothing. Terrible pillows. Under the bed, a thick pile of dirt. During our stay (yes, we stayed, because we payed in advance and had no money to go other place) nobody cleaned the room or the bathroom, or made the bed, or changed the towels. I was robbed. And I think Expedia should delete this "hotel" from their list.

Very close to the Cologne Christmas markets and around the corner from a good underground parking garage. Great food and atmosphere in the area. Can be a little loud at night as the restaurants and bars close in the area but the mornings are quiet. Would definitely stay here again.

Was expecting one of the design rooms like my booking was for a design double room. Didn't get that, nothing bad about it but it was just a standard one. Bed was rock solid and cramped into a corner but did the job. Great location. Great price. Receptionists were lovely and welcoming and felt safe.

The bed was one of the worst I've had this whole trip. There was no mattress they just had some sort of exercise mat with a sheet over it. I stayed on a couch bed in Paris and even that was better. It was super noisy too from a venue close by too.
