Pros:

Proximity to main station

Cons:

On one side the location is great because of the proximity to the main station. On the other hand, it's in one of the worst streets of the Bahnhofsviertel. With drug addicts and crazy people all around the entrance. I was ok with that as I knew what to expect and take that tradeoff because I needed to be close to the station. The price also kind of justifies it. However, I've stayed in places with similar prices (a bit further away from the station) that were a lot more comfortable, modern and with bigger rooms and a much better vibe.

Pros:

Das Hotel war ansprechend designed und passt damit ins Viertel. Die Betten waren bequem. Zum Schlafen auf der Durchreise für den Preis in Ordnung.

Cons:

Die Sauberkeit ließ sehr zu wünschen übrig. Bartstoppeln am Waschbecken, Haare auf dem frischgemachten Bett. Das Waschbecken war sehr klein. Am schlimmsten war aber, dass das Zimmer nicht als Raucher- oder Nichtraucherzimmer ausgezeichnet war und daher nach Rauch stank. Lüften war aufgrund von Straßenlärm nur eingeschränkt möglich. Das Kühlschranklicht war kaputt und machte Disko.

Pros:

Zentrale Lage

Cons:

Die Bilder im Internet entsprechen nicht der Wahrheit. 4.Sterne Hotel ist übertrieben. Eher Jugendherberge. Einzelzimmer und Betten sehr klein. 1,85m Personen werden definitiv ein Platz Problem haben. Bad voller Schimmel, Zimmerwände dreckig. Die Gegend ist sehr laut bis 6uhr früh.
Das Frühstück war überschaubar und nicht frisch, besonders Wurst und Käse. Außer Gurke und Tomaten gab es kein anderes Gemüse. Bei 4 Sternen erwartet man ein gutes Buffet
