GGuest UserThe hotel location was great, and so close to the subway for easy transport into the city. When I made the reservation, it did not indicate that parking was an additional fee, just that there was parking. Not that parking was very much, but I don't recall seeing a fee posted on the booking website, and it was jusy unexpected. The room was sufficient- a tiny bit smaller than expected. And the room had a slight sour smell, not sure if it was mildew or just stuffy from the winter west weather, but we were only there one night, so we didn't fuss. The check-in staff spoke less english than expected, but was okay, as my Deutsch was just good enough we could meet in the middle. Breakfast was a good spread and the attendants were plenty.

Ccyoukou****The hotel is right next to Cologne Central Station; you step out and it's there. From the room, you can see Cologne Cathedral, allowing you to fully experience Cologne day and night. Being near the station, all kinds of amenities are very convenient. The hotel lobby even preserves a brick from 1979. The breakfast has a rich selection of cheeses – a cheese lover's dream! German beer is truly delicious. You absolutely must visit the Cologne Triangle; watching the sunrise there for five euros is an incredibly beautiful and stunning experience that photos can only capture about fifty percent of.

YYS. AThis comment may be a bit long.
I come here for check in around 3:30pm, there are a group of elders checking in front me, I waited around 30minutes there. I think the reception is a responsible one but he can either speed up the progress, skip some of the elders questions, and also hotel to consider add one more staff there to support. The long waiting time of check-in delay my travel visit here.
The room is very clean, and also new. The place is a little far away by not that far from main city.
The room windows are all locked, it is a bit frustrated.
The hot water suspended, and when i called reception for 5 times, they finally pick my phone up saying technical issues into 8am , which i have to leave the hotel at 8:15am for my flight...
Finally, the breakfast is insanely good! You guys can have a try.

SShoppingThere is a cooperative car park, the maximum charge for the day is 15 euros, the counter staff is also very friendly, it is very close to the subway, tram, bus, and Cologne Cathedral, and it is within walking distance

도도라에몽이지롱It's clean and nice! It's close to Cologne Cathedral, so it's great for sightseeing. The room has a lot of storage space and is special. :)
7.4/10
AAnonymous UserThe Good:
- Location is right in the middle of everything and few steps from the Cologne Cathedral and the Cologne Central Station.
- Most of the staff were nice and helpful. The young lady (she had curly hair) and the Dutch man were amazing and friendly!
- The room given to us was huge! It had a living room.
- The price was affordable considering we went during peak holiday season with the Christmas markets open.
The Bad:
- We were on the 5th floor and the lift was only until the 4th floor. We had to carry our luggages up 2 flights of stairs to get to our room. Also the lift was tiny! It could only fit 2 persons or 1 person with luggage.
- Heating was not working. When we arrived, we were wondering why we had 2 portable heaters (with 1 not working), we realised the radiators were not working!
- The bathroom stank the whole room everytime we came in from outside. It seemed to come from the drainage.
- The bathroom has a huge window (not frosted, no curtain) that makes you uncomfortable when showering! I had to turn the lights off at night so I wasn't visible from outside. And during the day, I had to crouch.
- The shower cubicle was so tiny! I kept hitting the shower lever so the temperature kept changing while showering. I had to leave the glass door open so I can move.
- The sofas in the living room had stains.
- The king bed was actually 2 single bed beds placed side by side and I kept falling into the middle crack.
- The mattress had a lump in the middle. It was uncomfortable.
- There was 1 female staff (older lady), who was rude. We asked to collect our luggage we left after we checked out and she had this pissed off expression like we bothered her for asking.
I had high expectations as I have stayed in Wyndham hotels before and this hotel was not up to par.

7.3/10
GGuest UserThe room was suitable for a short stay, but the bathroom had a slightly strange smell. The room was well-equipped, and although the hotel has an elevator, it was out of order, making carrying heavy luggage somewhat difficult. The breakfast was excellent, with a variety of cold meats, fruit, pastries, yogurt, and delicious toppings.
7.3/10
AAnonymous UserThe hotel brings a vibe of vintage. The single bed room is spacious. Good toilet and heater. The soundproof could be better. Overall 9/10 experience. Highly recommended for lone travelers.
6.7/10
GGuest Userthe room is clean, the owner is gentle and responsive. The only problem is there is no sound proof at all - considering this is a general flat problem, we can still bear with many random noises coming from outside or inside the building. But there are two permanent residents who share the flat with us cooking and talking to each other from 23pm to 1am, just outside our room. we felt weird to tell them to keep quiet as we are the 'temporary guest'. there must be some rules to be set up if the owner wants to mix long-term and short-term stays.
6.7/10
ZZhinvThe room is clean and tidy, with convenient transportation, close to the cathedral, and many places to eat around. The hotel has complete facilities, considerate service, free luggage storage, we arrived before 12 o'clock, and we were checked in immediately, thank you hotel owner!
