Check in at 6pm had to be done by calling a number and being given a code. I noticed this written on the front door when I arrived and wasn't informed before. What if my phone battery was dead? Or if I had no roaming? Communication in advance is a MUST in these types of situations.Other things to consider before booking:- No elevator.- The rooms are dark and loud, next to busy street. Bring earplugs! I didn't...- Shower and faucet are in the bedroom, without doors.- Curtains falling off- Pillows too big and no smaller options.- TV has only a few basic German channels, nothing international- Breakfast super basic, no fruits or vegetables.I did not rest the two nights I stayed here so I will most probably not come back and look for other options when in town for work.

I decided to stay here for a better individual experience rather than the large generic hotel nearby. It proved to be the right decision, I had a bigger room with better facilties and a more personal service. …

The hotel was nice, small and cozy. Was a bit small, as expected of independent European hotels, and was the right size for me. …

I arrived late and had to phone a contact number (posted on the door). The person who answered talked me through a process which got me my key in less than 15 secs using some pretty cool technology. …

Clean, nice rooms. Great breakfast. Very very nice staff. One star less because of noise coming from the street. You need some ear plugs to get some sleep.

We chose this hotel because it was close to family (for Christmas). The manager was extremely nice and helpful (also allowing us a very late checkout); the room comfortable; and the breakfast, very good. …

I ended up staying at George's in Essen because I couldn't find a reasonably priced hotel in Düsseldorf at the time. …

I was visiting a friend who lives just a street away from the hotel and, therefore, for me the location was a great plus. I had great expectations about the place, though, I must admit I was disappointed by a couple of aspects. …

Small is beautiful...When you open your eyes before really waking up you might think you are in a friend's house, thanks to the tasteful decoration. …
