8/10 Very Good

Perfect for just a place to sleep
Very sweet little room we had to twins. Storage is good 2 wardrobes to share stuff. All very clean and beds were comfy. Check I in very easy they just give you a code for keys. Bathroom was clean however it was very small and no shower curtain or door so the floor got very wet and had to use our hand towels to mop it up leaving us with no fresh hand towels

Older Hotel with character
Location was good, about a half mile walk to the Cathedral. Rooms are simple, but comfortable. No elevator so you will have to walk up 1-4 flights of stairs. Breakfast was included with a selection of breads, cheese and cold meats. Free parking was a public lot half a mile away and was only free during the night. Staff during the day was friendly and helpful. No staff onsite after dark, but you are given a key to a side entrance. Street side can be a little noisy at night.

Well priced centrally located hotel
Nice hotel with friendly helpful staff. Only downside, if it is a downside is front door is closed at 7PM and there are no staff there until next morning. You are given a key to a side door but not sure what would happen if there was an emergency.

A lovely Hotel
Closed to a bunch of points of interest, in walking distance. Amiable hotel staff and nice ambiance. A simple yet comfy hotel for a tourist!

Very close to city - convenient!
They do not have double beds, so don't expect it! But the single beds were clean and tidy. Breakfast was excellent. There is NO FREE PARKING - but it is available at only 6 Euro for 24 hours, which is good.

Friendly personnel went out of their way to make us comfortable and the breakfast was terrific - much better than we'd expected for this price. Will book again if I ever go back to Cologne!

Ich hätte ja schwören können, daß bei der Buchung stand 'Rezeption immer? geöffnet'. Leider findet man sowas im Ausdruck dann ja nicht wieder. Das elektronische Einchecken ist NICHT mein Ding! Außerdem habe ich unterwegs kein e-mail. Ich kannte das Hotel bereits. Zimmer war gut in Ordnung, Gegend auch. Beim Auschecken hing an der AUSGANGSTÜR unten im Treppenhaus ein Zettel mit der Aufschrift 'Zimmerschlüssel bitte im Zimmer auf dem Tisch ablegen'. Und das, NACHDEM ich die ganzen Stufen vom 3. Stock runtergestiegen war. Da ist doch irgendwas nicht zuende gedacht worden?! Aber ich komme gern nochmal wieder, nun weiß ich ja, wie das alles geht ...

Trotz der Riesenlange Eingangstreppe, war ich mit dem eigenen kleinen Bad, dem Balkon und auch noch mit Blick auf den Dom sehr begeistert. Sehr sauber und bei Bedarf wird täglich Bettwäsche und Handtücher ausgewechselt. Leider kein TV vorhanden, aber durch WLAN kein Problem. Sehr gerne wieder! P.S. Toppen würde es noch mit einem kleinen Kühlschrank. 😉

Niedrigklassiges, aber sauberes Hotel. Völlig unkomplizierter Check-in mit Schlüsseltresor. Zimmer ausreichend groß. Ein Späti ist ums Eck. Das einzige, was überhaupt bemängelt werden kann, ist, dass m.E. auch in dieser Preisklasse ein zumindest kleiner Fernseher zur Standardausstattung der Zimmer gehören sollte, aber das ist verschmerzbar. Insgesamt eine empfehlenswerte Unterkunft für den Budget-Urlaub bzw. den schmalen Geldbeutel.
