Pros:

Great location.
Nice common areas.

Cons:

With a little effort, some improvements could be made that don't require major infrastructure but would make the stay much more comfortable. The pillows are dreadful, making it impossible to get comfortable. Having to make your own bed after a long trip is a letdown (it might be common here in Germany, but it's the first time I've experienced it). There’s no power outlet, shelf, or light by the bunk bed. These might seem like small details, but they greatly impact comfort and value for money.

Pros:

Дуже привітний персонал ніяких проблем з поселенням реєстрацію роблять самі або ви робите за бажанням. Я камера зберігання 4 євро за добу

Cons:

Ранній виїзд в 10:00 було б добре щоб можна було залишитись хоча б до 12:00 або 13:00. Така послуга існує але вона- платна

Good if you are on a budget and want to be close to the train station, but do not expect quality
Pros:

The location was optimal for someone who was on a short time travel plan, close to the train station and to the departure place of the express bus towards Dortmund Airport.

Cons:

The room was only superficially cleaned. It looked both old and only minimally taken care of. The TV was not working, the bathroom had strange pink traces over some of the walls and the WC, which I was deeply afraid to touch. Was it cleaner agent, was it lipstick, was it something else? I do not know.
