Terrible and would never recommend
Pros:

I liked Nothing, it was in a dirty street, you had to phone a specific number to get in the front door

Cons:

It was small and only 200 yards from an old defunct hotel of the same name, and no signs or notices saying where the current building was. The rooms were so small and much of it had a layer of dust

Pros:

The position is superb.
The breakfast was good.

Cons:

The bedroom, tiny but ok for single traveller, while the bathroom was really too small - tiny wash hand basin and unattractive, not so clean shower.
It would be impossible in hot weather with no air com.

Flop
Pros:

Die Lage war gut und zentral.

Cons:

Leider für die warmen Temperaturen ohne Klimaanlage ein No Go. Man kam kaum zu Ruhe und man traf kaum Personal an. Check in selbst sowie Check Out was okay war. Ich würde es leider auf Grund dieser Erfahrung nicht mehr buchen war einfach nur enttäuscht. Sauberkeit des Zimmers lies auch zu wünschen übrig. Die Spühlung der Toilette lief die ganze Zeit durch

Had a great stay in Köln though.
Pros:

Its 2 mins walk from Dome and maybe 10 mins from train station. I would recommend this for a short stay and just to have place to stay. In summer its hot because no AC and loud from the street if the window is open. Good value for money.

Cons:

A fan would be good to have and a bottle of water in summer. The online check in is not yet smooth.

Low budget Übernachtung in der Kölner Innenstadt
Pros:

Die Lage war perfekt. Der Preis ist gut, aber siehe nächsten Punkt (kleines Zimmer)

Cons:

Das Zimmer war so klein, dass ein großer Koffer nicht Platz gehabt hätte - mit 2 Koffern kann man da nicht übernachten. Das war zwar klar, aus den Bildern, also keine Täuschung oder so, aber es war wirklich eng. Kein Schreibtisch, kein Schrank.
