The Pension Stork 1 is a dive, I’m sorry to say. The location is quiet good, with lots of restaurants nearby, but that’s where the positives stop. The management are totally unhelpful. …

The pension has got a good location, about ten minutes' walk from Cologne main station. At our arrival, we were asked to pay immediately for the night, yet credit cards were not accepted under 50 euros. …

I booked this hotel through famous hotel booking website. I reached this hotel and I was taken to new apartment which was decent. There was no internet initially and when asked they provided data sticks for internet connection. …

Due to bad stories I got about the hotel I tried to cancel my reservations for 2 rooms. First time I had a man on the phone who spoke no English, but he took a message. I got no call back. …

Where to start?||||First of all, attention was awful. They barely said "hi" when asked us for our credit card, so we had to pay in advance. …

It is not very close to the central train station, but in a nice and very quiet area. The room is too small, barely a person passes through. Despite everything, it is clean, with a kitchen and a refrigerator. …
