The room smells strongly of puma, the window an arm's length from the cable car doesn't close, the faucet drips, the neighbor next door is as audible as if he were in the same room.Well then, good night!

Dirty rooms (e.g., tooth paste stains, dust, and mysterious stains). However, the rooms were spacious and the hotel was easily accessible by tram via Wuppertal HBF.The hotel had a card with information on the neighbourhood and Wuppertal, which was nice to have.

Great hotel, treated like an adult. Despite reviews I read I had no issue with showers, plenty warm water. Schwebebahn station seconds away and plenty to eat, pubs etc. Oh aye had a TV to watch some euro games sober.

I am not satisfied with the hotel at all. The receptionist was extremely rude. You can't talk to customers like that - as if they owe you something. He shouted and pointed his finger in the face.There was no soap in this “hotel”. The room was quite unclean and dusty in many places. Plus, you could see everything that was happening in the room from the cable car passing by.For the price and because of the rude receptionist I would never recommend this hotel.

Overall less than expected.The bed was indeed comfortable. The reception staff were courteous enough to leave me the room key in a locker when I notified of my potential late arrival by midnight. They even called me to make sure I got their message.In the room there was no hot water available from the basin faucet. I had to tighten the faucet very very firmly otherwise it would drip. No soap pieces or soap dispenser was available by the basin. The lamp above the mirror wasn't working. The room looked in a dire state in general.

A rustic, sporadically furnished room. Everything you need is there, bed, chair, table, sink. Toilet and shower in the hallway. If you're looking for a hotel to just spend the night there, it's ideal

An absolute recommendation for a cost-effective, clean and uncomplicated overnight stay.Public transport can be reached on foot in less than 2 minutes and no car is needed here. The hotel dates back to the turn of the century and therefore has old-fashioned but very well-kept and homely furnishings. Everything was bright and friendly, especially the staff. The room was large, very clean and comfortable. Our customers felt they were in good hands.

terrible horror. Our car was completely wrecked near the hotel. when we asked how and where we could call the police from the hotel owner, he started laughing and threatened not to make any noise. …
