Die Betten, nur 1,6m, sind durchgelegen jede einzelne Sprungfeder habe ich gemerkt. Sehr kleines Zimmer, Vorhänge sind nicht verdunkelnd. Alter Teppichboden toll gesaugt.
Frühstück war gut, ich erwarte für den Preis jedoch frisches Obst, gab es aber nicht. Kurzer Check in, alle nötigen Geschäfte in der Nähe.
Fazit : Für 2 Nächte, mehr nicht!

Hotel in die Jahre gekommen, aber sauber, Personal sehr freundlich und Frühstück gut.
Was skeptical about coming with the amount of bad reviews, we checked in Thursday 29th January and the staff was helpful and friendly, we struggled to find the room which was our own fault we did multiple laps of the hotel, we found it was clean , we we just a little outdated but nothing bad at all, the room itself was okay; they was a stain on the carpet , and the window didn’t open but other then that everything was okay, the hotel is in a good location close by to everything , and breakfast was okay we only went once but it was quiet a nice little area and all the staff we saw were friendly and nice, we checked out Saturday - we had an amazing stay and we would definitely come back and we reccomend this hotel! Do not listen to all the bad reviews we was really impressed , such good value for the money!
Verschrikkelijke ervaring!
Heel luidruchtig, met geluiden die van buiten en uit de andere kamers kwamen.
De lift liep voortdurend vast. Er werd vermeld dat er een frigo in de kamer was, maar dat was niet het geval. We hebben betaald voor parking voor 2 nachten, maar de tweede nacht was er geen plaats om te parkeren.
the breakfast room was full of rats under the food tables and we saw many come out for food when food was dropped on the floor everyday. room was also cold and heating wouldn’t go on any higher. bathroom small and no ventilation and evertime you shower there would be a puddle on the floor

De kamer was in prima staat voor het geld wat we betaald hebben. De lift kwam soms niet opdagen, wat af en toe vervelend was. Voor de verder rest een prima verblijf gehad met een prima ontbijt.

Comfortable enough. Clean enough. Very serviceable 2-3 star hotel. No extras, long queues for check in. Friendly and helpful staff. Easy check out. Could use additional sound proofing. Stairs everywhere, with lifts but only in some places. Not an issue for me to take 5-6 stairs but those with mobility issues should be wary.
The hoel could do with a bit of modernisation, particuarly the radiators. Thankfully the noise of the radiators drowned out most of the sound of some very inconsiderate guests banging on someones door very loudly at 2am. Breakfast was good but some scrambled eggs wouldnt go a miss! Be advised parking is limited and quite expensive

Hôtel méritant d être rénové mais sinon le personnel est aimable.
Bon petit déjeuner et très bien situé pour visiter Cologne.
Hotel discreto in posizione un po' decentrato per muoversi a piedi per arrivare in centro citta'. Molto vecchio stile ed un po' angusto. Stanza singola di piccole dimensioni, anch' essa vecchio stile ma cmq pulita. Buona la colazione e personale molto gentile e disponibile.
Nie wieder.
Die Zimmer....gruselig.
Fenster waren mir zu erreichen wenn man groß ist und aufs Bett klettert, oder mit nicht vorhandener Leiter .
Wir wären zu 5 Personen. Drei mussten die Zimmer wechseln. Fenster nicht zu bedienen. Fernseher der nicht mehr aus, ja Auszug schalten war
Auch nicht vom pampigem Personal.
Frühstücksraum viel zu klein, so das wir nach einer knappen halben Stunde aufgefordert wurden den Tisch frei zu machen
Da wir wie gesagt zu 5 waren haben wir das abgelehnt und die ,,Dame" schrieh durch den Raum.
Apropro, es wurde ein zweiter Frühstücksraum ausgeschildert, der aber nicht vorhanden war
Das Schild stammte wohl aus alten Zeiten
. Also wenn es nach uns geht dürfte diese Unterkunft nicht mehr angepriesen werden

La habitación era grande, la calefacción era suficiente y siempre hacia bueno. El baño correcto y la limpieza diaria genial. El desayuno estaba muy bien, tenía de todo, yo si que eché en falta un microondas para poder calentar la leche y el café. El personal de recepción era muy amable, llegamos pronto y pudimos subir a la habitación La ubicación del hotel inmejorable, a un paso de todo, a la catedral unos 20 minutos andando .

Voor deze prijs was de accomodatie wat je er van mag verwachten. In één van de kamers was het bed te zacht en liep de douchebak over. Verder doet het hotel enigszins gedateerd en versleten aan.
