Het verblijf was prima
Pros:

Het was een heel schone kamer met bad en koffie- en thee faciliteiten, glazen en koelkastje met drinken. Het ontbijt was goed, er was alles wat we wilde. De kamer aan de achterkant was rustig. De locatie zit in een winkelstraat en was op loopafstand van het Centraal station, de Dom, eetgelegenheden, winkels, museum Ludwig en Concertzaal. Er waren wel dakloze mensen, maar het voelde gewoon veilig.

Cons:

De communicatie, er werd gevraagd of we schone handdoeken wilde, we gaven aan dat dat die dag niet hoefde, maar toen is er niemand op de kamer geweest.

Great location, in the city center and near to the main train station
Pros:

Great location, only 4min by foot from the hauptbahnhof. Old-style building, but the room was spacious and the balcony was very pleasant, and everything was clean. The breakfast room is small and has few tables, but it has a very big diversity of food and drinks!

Great value for an overnight
Pros:

Great location about 10 minutes walk from main station. Lots of shops, cafes, and restaurants nearby. Nice breakfast. Perfect for overnight stay in Koln.

Cons:

Lots of stairs - not great if you have heavy luggage. Very basic room with very few electrics outlets. I couldn't switch the TV on.

Pros:

Das Zimmer und die Lage hat uns sehr gefallen! Echt klasse war das Frühstück und das freundliche Personal!!

Cons:

Leider war der Fernseher defekt und das Fenster ließ sich nur schwer auf kipp stellen. Insgesamt sehr warm im Zimmer.

Die Badewanne zum Duschen auch sehr ungewöhnlich und nicht so schön!

Pros:

The staff were great and the location is really handy for the station

Cons:

There is no lift, if you have a heavy bag, there are a few challenging steps. It's not in the greatest part of town. The rooms internal decoration was unusual and a little dated. Our room was literally outside the reception desk ( about 2 metres), so a little off putting every time you went out the room. The staff were really pleasant, we felt safe and looked after.

Billigt men förvänta dig ingen lyx
Pros:

Närheten till stationen var perfekt. Ett prisvärt hotell men man får det man betalar för. Frukosten var mer riklig än jag trott. De hade också glutenfritt bröd, men bara hårt bröd. Det fanns vattenkokare på rummet och gratisvatten samt läsk.

Cons:

Man får det man betalar för. Ingången till hotellet var knappt märkbar. Jag gick in i baren bredvid. Många branta trappor upp till mitt rum på våning fyra. Kanske inte det bästa stället att placera en 73-åring på med tung väska. Ingen hiss och ingen erbjöd sig hjälpa mig upp med väskan trots två unga personer vid receptionen. Sängen var knölig och kylskåpet gick inte att sätta på. Bordet bredvid sängen brakade ihop när jag skulle flytta det till just sängen. Jag satte ihop det igen. Typiskt billigt Ikea-bord.

Pros:

古いから天井に虫がいたり、蜘蛛の巣が張ったりしてましたが、1泊だったので問題なかったです。駅近だし、朝食もいただけるのでいいかと！冷蔵庫には水とジュースを無料でいただけますし、コーヒーや紅茶のセットもあって助かりました

Cons:

エレベーターがないので重い荷物の方は大変です
