Pros:

Sehr geräumiges Dreibettzimmer mit zum bequemen Übernachten ausreichender Ausstattung einschließlich Schreibtisch. Getrennte Dusche und WC/Waschbecken. Zimmer war in Extrabau und sehr ruhig. (Wegen Feiertage war auch in der Umgebung wenig los und man konnte ungestört die Fenster offen haben.)
Sehr positiv waren die Parkplätze direkt im Hotelhof/nahe am Zimmer. Freundliches, hilfsbereites Personal. Ideale Lage relativ nahe der Autobahn, aber auch mit U-Bahn Anbindung.
Kommen gerne wieder, wenn wir im Ruhrgebiet unterwegs sind.

Cons:

Für uns war alles gut.

Quiet, clean, comfortable and convenient to local amenities Is how I’d describe this hotel.
Pros:

Very central to the things I needed.

Cons:

I would have liked a jug and coffee and tea making facilities in the room. Being able to make a cup of coffee is important, particularly when you stay longer than just overnight.
