Super for simple stay.
Pros:

Perfect location everything is in short distance walk. Surprisingly quiet (maybe we were lucky but windows was soundproof). Other reviews are reliable. Staff very friendly and supportive!

Cons:

Bed too soft. For the price nothing else to add - as you expect what you get.

Pros:

Pomocny personel posługujący się również językiem angielskim. Położenie hotelu idealnie w centrum starówki. Pokój spełnił oczekiwania, w łazience boskie kosmetyki do kąpieli urban skincare co., bardzo wygodne łóżka. Blisko do dworca kolejowego, katedry i kilka minut spacerem nad Ren. Mieliśmy wykupione śniadania w hotelu i wszystko było w porządku. Świetna miejscówka.

Pros:

Sehr freundliches Personal. Waren sehr bemüht. Frühstück einfach, aber sehr lecker und absolut ausreichend. Waren nur für 1 Nacht da. Top Lage, perfekt für einen Städtetrip bzw. Besuch in der Lanxess Arena. Sehr gutes Preis/Leistungsverhältnis. Bad und Betten etwas klein, aber auch das für 1 Nacht ausreichend, alles sehr sauber.
