Hyvä paikka messukävijälle.
Pros:

Messukävijälle todella hyvä majoitus! Hinta oli edullinen ja vastasi hotellin tasoa. En odottanut viiden tähden hotellia ja saimme nukuttua oikein hyvin tilavassa, siistissä huoneessa. Aamiainen oli ok, ei superhyvä mutta ok. Sijainti on messukävijälle hyvä. Messukeskukseen ja Plaza-kauppakeskukseen on kävelymatka. Hotellin sisäänkäynnillä pyörii vähän hämärää porukkaa, mutta pysyvät omissa puuhissaan, eivätkä häirinneet meitä ollenkaan.

Lovely and central
Pros:

Lovely breakfast available, very central location, very clean and affordable and the receptionist Ursula was an absolute gem. So helpful and friendly. Many charming restaurants close by and easy walking distance from the main station even with big suitcases. The shower was hot and the water pressure excellent.

Cons:

The room was a little small but as we were only there for 2 nights it was fine. The night life on the street is a bit noisy at times.

ganz ok
Pros:

Zimmer war geräumig

Cons:

Frühstück wenig auswahl, Brötchen sind hart - schmeckt nach Aufbackbrötchen. Handtücher und Läufer sehen schon mitgelitten aus. Das angegebene Familienzimmer für insgesamt 4 köpfige Famillie sind wenig geeignet, wenn im Elternzimmer Doppelbett Breite 180 cm ist. Hinweis auf zwei fehlende Licht wurde nicht wahr genommen.

Een slechte hotel ervaring in de slechtste buurt van Frankfurt!! Zwaar teleurgesteld in Booking!!
Pros:

Slechtste hotel ooit

Cons:

Gehorig, te kleine kamers, vieze kamers!! Geen ventilatie, kamers stinken!! Alles oud en kappot! Douche lekt en geen afvoerput in badkamer stond tot aan me enkels in water. Vlekjes op beddengoed. Drugs verslaafden/drugs dealers en daklozen gelijk voor de deur maken je de hele nacht gek

strava i uzas.
Pros:

Nista.

Cons:

4 dana samo jednom smo imali ciscenje sobe. Oko samog hotela narkomani, pijanice i dileri droge. Vrlo ceste policijske patrole. Posle 22h se ne preporucuje izlazak iz hotela.

Wer die besondere Atmosphäre des Frankfurter Bahnhofs hautnah erleben möchte, ist dort richtig.
Pros:

Super niedriger Preis.

Cons:

Im Eingangsbereich saßen lauter merkwürdige Gestalten, die offenbar weder Personal noch Gäste waren und sich vermutlich aufgewärmt haben. Es gab kein Früĥstück, weil ich angeblich der einzige Gast war, der ein Frühstück bestellt hat. Aber mir wirde von der netten Rezeptionistin eines zubereitet.

Pros:

The staff was incredible. We arrived in Frankfurt extremely early (6am) and wanted to drop off our bags at the hotel to sightsee before we could check in at 2pm. Noting that this was a lucky exception, the staff upon arrival to drop off our bags informed us that our room was free and ready and allowed us to check in early which allowed us to sleep off the night spent traveling and go out to the city well rested. Upon check-out, the staff was also very understanding and helpful towards a person with a mobility aid, and allowed us to check out slowly and on our own time around 11am. They provided us with a lot of help (ice-pack, help getting to the lift) during our stay.

On top of this, the Hotel is in an incredibly convenient location, just a 5 minute walk from the Frankfurt Central Station and close to metro and tram lines and stops.

Overall, amazing value for the money spent.

Cons:

There was no air conditioning or fan in the room, but thankfully the weather wasn't too hot during our stay and we had access to big windows. Some staff members don't speak English, but are still as helpful as can be.
