Nice hotel in a good location. Rooms were reasonably quiet, clean and comfortable. Service and breakfast were adequate. Location is about a twenty minute walk to the aldstadt/touristy section of the city, but it's nearby plenty of services and restaurants. They have on-site parking (having a small car helps.)

Good: Very good location in the city center. Room offers all the basics.Bad:Thin walls, weakly sealed windows. Despite having a room in an empty courtyard, music and party noises from the street could be heard very loudly until late at night, making it almost impossible to sleep.Internet was constantly down, the personel wasn't able to fix the problem during that night.Both of these aspects made my business trip very annoying, because I needed internet for my office work and had to stay up much longer than I wanted.This hotel, which feels more like a pension, would be okay if you just need a decent bed after partying or long-night-sightseeing.

I arrived at the hotel and discovered that I had left my phone in the taxi that had taken me there. I was extremely distressed when checking in as this would ruin my entire holiday. …

Very nice hotel in a good location in Koeln. I found the room a bit old, but it was clean and very quiet. I appreciate the fact that they took into consideration that I had asked for a quiet room.The staff is kind and competent, it's nice to speak to them.The breakfast was lovely, maybe the part I enjoyed the most of my stay, there was plenty of choice and everything was delicious. The breakfast ladies were kind and fast in their service.The bus stops are nearby, and so are shops and restaurants. The station is less than 20 minutes by foot, otherwise you can catch a bus.

Fraudulent: We received worse and cheaper rooms than we ordered and paid for. The staff refused to compensate the difference (!)Very loud: 'Soundproof' (as advertised) is a joke. We could not only hear, but also understand what both the neighbours and people in the hall were talking about. House noise, e.g. from bathrooms, was very loud as well. Moreover, people in the street could be heard until very late; so was the music club in the neighbouring block.

The location was really the only redeeming quality about this hotel. The mattresses and pillows were cheap and the shower didn't drain and overflowed. Also, BEWARE that they charge by the PERSON. I booked a room with a double bed (for my partner and I) and they increased our rate when we arrived because we were two people. I've never experienced this at any other hotel in my life and was pretty appalled by the way they handled it. Not good customer service at all.
