Yggotel Pirol was a decent hotel but did not particularly impress us. Room was extremely small and lacked basic amenities such as tissues, minifridge, chair that had a back (only had a stool), lotion, handsoap, etc. There was also zero ventilation in our room, even when we tried to open the windows all the way. With no air conditioning and no ventilation, a fan or some sort of airflow would have been appreciated. However, the location was excellent (very close to Old Köln), and the breakfast was good. The decor theme was also nice.

The elevator is super loud and the whole building shakes when it is used especially if you are staying in the top floors. This made it a bit challenging to sleep.Breakfast was excellent and it was very close to all the major attractions.

Overall, I do not recommend this hotel for longer than a single night stay. There are better options available in similar locations and at similar price points.Negatives:- Very small rooms; the rooms are not suitable for a couple.- Thin walls; the hotel is very noisy. You can hear other guests, building systems, and the street outside with ease.- The WiFi speed and strength are both incredibly poor. The WiFi was regularly unusable from the room (it dropped out several times writing this review).- The mobile reception is similarly inconsistent from the rooms, and hence this cannot be used as a back up when the WiFi is not working.- The website states that they have a Smart TV. They do not have a Smart TV, it is a regular flatscreen. I don't know if this is intentionally misleading.- There is no mini-fridge, no desk, and very limited storage space.- The bathroom is comically small. I am 187cm and couldn't fit on the toilet. The single basin had very little room for toiletries.- EDIT: There is a door hanger that offers a free drink voucher at the bar if you choose not to have your room cleaned. I did not receive any vouchers despite hanging this. Upon asking the front desk, I was told that they have no idea what I am talking about, and the hotel doesn't have a bar. Every room has these door hangers, it is on the opposite side to the Do Not Disturb hanger - I am uncertain how the hotel is unfamiliar with this.Positives:- The decor and furnishings are well done. The bed and associated covers and pillows are very comfortable.- The breakfast is excellent; meats, cheese, bread, spreads, coffee, waffles, yoghurt, juice, eggs, and sausages. The only thing missing is pastries.

Very nice place to stay in the central of Cologne. Walking distance from all major tourist atttractionsd in the city. They have very friendly staff, and the rooms, although small, are clean and well looked after. Perfect place to stay if you want to visit the city as a couple. Comfortable beds, and great breakfast as well, for a affordable price. I would reccomend them too anyone coming to Cologne. Siham at the reception, welcomed us, and made us feel very welcome.
