Overall my stay was nice. The location is excellent for Cologne Old Town and staff are very friendly and helpful. There were however a couple of disappointments. Firstly the breakfast feels a little thin on options, it's 7/10, so still pretty good but more cake/sweet options would be nice, like yogurt for example. On my 3 days there was the choice between one fresh cake option and croissants which is fine but just not enough varity for sweet items. In the room, the duvets seemed a little small, opened up at one end without cover being buttoned down so it gets a little lumpy from not being held properly together. It feels like it barely covers me. I did select option for double bed on Expedia but it had 2 singles and it felt a little compact and a very small duvet. Also the room appears to fill with pollen whenever I return to the room I had the craziest sneezing attacks. I think the pollen count was high and those trees overhanging close to the windows possibly let it pollen as I don't usually suffer at all from hay fever but if you had seen me in the room you would have thought I needed hospital treatment. I put the hanger on the door one morning to say 'please don't tidy room' and when I arrived back later it had been ignored and the bed was made and the windows opened again. So I had another crazy sneeze attack when I returned. And finally, I'm not sure where it comes from but the noisy loud voices from youngers on the street outside (mostly at night) is horrendous.
