Perfekter Ort für eine Partynacht in Köln
Pros:

Zentrale Lage mitten in Köln

Cons:

Es kann nachts in den Straßen wegen feiernden Menschen etwas laut werden. Hat uns aber nicht gestört.

Nice, clean, convenient but empty, lonely, if i may say.
Pros:

Location:perfect. Staff: non existing. We only saw a very nice guy when we took the keys. Otherwise, there was no one else in the reception. It's not like a hotel, it;s like a building with rooms.We got the key and we were in and out. We didn;t even see anyone else. But apart from that, it's very clean, it has its own character, it's convenient, like the room was spacious. The location is its biggest strengh, so i guess the price we paid was mainly for this.

Cons:

That you didn't have a 'hotel feeling"

Average.
Pros:

Not much., The bar was shut during my stay.

Cons:

The Frau charged me an extra 50 euros for keeping my luggage in the hotel for 3 hours. Daylight robbery and she was very rude. Shouting at me like a fish wife and totally out of order. I travel for business a lot and like to stay in traditional hotels not the corporates. This taught me a lesson and I hope never to experience this again.

Fabulous location to see the most beautiful structure ever.
Pros:

Location, Location, Location!
Right in the thick of things. So easy to the cathedral, the river, the bridge, museums restaurants & bars & the train station. Lovely room & comfortable bed. Has an elevator!!

Cons:

It was really hot so we had the windows open & the restaurant noise came up but completely gone with the windows closed. Not the hotels fault it was hot!!! A fan might have been a fabulous addition though.
