Enttäuscht
Cons:

In meinem Zimmer war die Heizung im Bad kaputt, sodass sie offensichtlich länger auf voller Power lief obwohl es draußen 30 Grad waren. Mein Zimmer war ebenerdig neben dem Parkplatz, also war Fenster öffnen auch nicht wirklich eine Option für etwas Abkühlung der Nacht. Ein Fenstergriff war abgebrochen (altes 2-flügeliges Fenster) und man könnte wenigstens eine "Milchglas-Folie" an die Scheibe kleben, für etwas sichtschutz, da ständig Leute da vorbeigehen und die einzige Möglichkeit ist ansonsten die Gardinen zuzumachen und Licht an, ist jetzt auch nicht sehr nachhaltig gedacht. Das Frühstück war im Vergleich zu anderen A&o in den ich war ziemlich dürftig. Es gab keinerlei Obst, ich glaube auch keinen Joghurt, zumindest war kein Schild dran was es war und neben Gurke und sowas. An Wochentagen erst ab 7 Uhr Frühstück anzubieten ist auch ziemlich spät, nachdem man 6.15 vom sehr lauten Putzen des Flurs aufgeweckt wird, da wurde keine Stelle ausgelassen wo man mit dem Wischer dagegen schlagen konnte.

Bare minimum if even..
Pros:

Puh naja wir haben halt einfach ein Bett gebraucht, aber komfortabel war hier nichts. Das Bett ist nicht angenehm, Handtücher haben Flecken und das Personal ist viel zu jung und versteht selber diesen self checkin für die Leute nicht. Im Zimmer war’s extrem heiß und die Badezimmer Tür bleibt nicht von alleine auf. Haben ein „plus“ Zimmer bestellt für 2 und keinen Schreibtisch oder extra Sitzmöglichkeit gehabt.

Cons:

Es hat in den Gängen einmal unfassbar nach alten Männersocken gerochen, einmal nach nasser Hund. Das Personal war sehr unfreundlich beim checkin . Es war schmutzig und sehr hellhörig

you can find a better pace
Pros:

bath was ok. döner and groceties are very close to the place

Cons:

I got my bed number two times and both times there were other people sleeping in it. so the third time I just took the other one which were free. rooms are very small and overcrowded. no place to put your clothes or bag in the room at all. stinky room both times and the corridor was stinky too. kitchen is dirty. people were loud so be ready thar you wake up about 5 in the morning because someone is shouting behind the door. you definitely could find a better option for this price
