Overall very good
Pros:

Friendly. Clean linen. Big communal space to sit and read or charge your phone etc

Cons:

Another guest loudly watching things on their phone at 10:30 p.m. Two guests in the dorm not using the given bedding which I thought was unhygienic.

Pros:

The location is convenient, situated not far from the main train station.
The restroom was clean.
The staff was friendly.

Cons:

The hotel is located next to a noisy street; even with the windows closed, the noise is still audible.
The bed linen had a stain in my case
The carpeting in the hallways is stained.
Water in the vending machine costs more than at the airport.

Vollkommen ok für kurzen Aufenthalt
Pros:

Preis Leistung super, man konnte rund um die Uhr einchecken. Die Lage ist direkt am HBF, was natürlich auch dazu führt, dass es von draußen sehr laut wird (zumindest am WE). Da kann aber natürlich das Hotel nichts für und im Großen und Ganzen ist kriegt man hier für kleines Geld eine gute Übernachtungsmöglichkeit.

Cons:

Das Hotel ist etwas alt und wirkt an manchen stellen schon etwas runtergekommen. Das Personal hat sich nicht darum gekümmert, dass auf dem Flur andere Gäste brüllten, gegen Türen schlugen und - so klang es zumindest - Dinge warfen. Das Bett ist außerdem sehr klein.

Estancia conveniente para 1-2 días
Pros:

Ubicación y trato del personal.

Cons:

Las paredes se encuentran llenas de arañazos y manchan que no transmiten una sensación acogedora ni de limpieza en el cuarto. La calidad del colchón y de la almohada no era muy buena.
Por la noche comenzó a sonar una alarma del detector de humo en un cuarto y se tardó casi una hora en que fuese apagada a pesar de haber avisado en recepción.
El desayuno podría ser más variado teniendo en cuenta su coste.
