My stay at the hotel was quite nice overall. The rooms, while very small, were perfectly adequate for a 3-star stay. The separate toilet and bathroom with a shower over the bath may be a better option, but there was an odd smell present. The service was friendly and professional, making my experience pleasant. The location was perfect, central to most things in town, but being in the red light district was a drawback. The dining options were quite extensive with a European continental breakfast, but a bit on the pricey side. The facilities offered were good, with some room for improvement on certain aspects.

6.8/10

The hotel room felt more like an old college dormitory than a modern hotel room, and being priced at just 10 Euros per person, it wasn't surprising. Unfortunately, I ended up with an ugly room facing the street, which made it noisy until 1 am.

Rooms

The room was like an old college dormitory, but for the price, it was adequate. The street view room was noisy until late.

Service

8.0

The staff was very helpful, answering our questions and giving directions. They even accommodated our request for a non-smoking room on the third floor and allowed us to park our car in the hotel parking lot while we visited the Toy Museum.

Location

9.0

The hotel's location was great for exploring the Old Town, and it was not far from the main train station. It was perfect for visiting major tourist sites and attractions, including the Christmas Markets and the nearby mall.

Dining

5.0

The dining experience was not up to the usually high German standards. While breakfast had everything needed for a good start to the day, it was weak considering the price and compared to other hotels' breakfasts in Germany.

Facilities

6.0

The facilities were basic, reflecting the 60's building style. They weren't impressive but somewhat matched the low price paid for the room.
