Unfortunately I can't answer that because I didn't even get into the hotel. There are two telephone numbers at the entrance where you should call if the door is locked and the reception is not occupied. I tried to reach someone a few times, but no one answered the phone on either number, nor did anyone call me back! That doesn't work at all! Even if I didn't even get into the room, I definitely wouldn't recommend this hotel!

We stayed there for 3 nights and actually felt quite comfortable!It is very “old-fashioned”, but if you like it, you will feel at home here!Our television worked, towels were sufficient and new ones were received daily upon request. Our beds were clean!The carpet did have a few stains, but we didn't think it was too bad.The breakfast room is very old fashioned but really nice!!The staff was super friendly!!! Top!The breakfast was sufficient and delicious!You can reach the old town/city center on foot in just a few minutes.The hotel is also located in a “quieter” area, which was important to us personally!Parking is behind the hotel and free of chargeWe paid 177€ for 2 people, 3 nights - breakfast included and totally OK for the price! We will probably come back :-)

We spent two nights at the Lessinghof. When we first arrived we were totally shocked when we were given the rooms outside (30+31). Mold, cobwebs, stains in the bed, broken furniture and a lot more came our way. Thanks to the nice staff who understood our problem, we were able to change rooms quickly.The new rooms were clean but very old, like the entire hotel. The hotel sits under cobwebs and water stains, the plaster is coming off the walls, as is the wallpaper, the carpets have stains.Back to the rooms, unfortunately we were missing a lot, the smallest things.No toothbrush cup, the smoke detector was unscrewed, the television didn't work, the shower head was broken.In summary you can say that the rooms are not nearly as shown in the pictures.The breakfast was poor, on the first day it was noticeable that the containers were not really clean, as were the tables.On the second day it seemed as if the new food or drink was simply poured into the containers. (the apples were moldy, the drinks had edges and sediment and the dairy products seemed stale)The stains from the same table weren't gone either, but when we saw how the tables were cleaned, this was no surprise.The table was just swept clean with a dustpan.In summary, we can say that we actually love the breakfast in the hotel and serve ourselves a few times, which unfortunately wasn't the case here.All in all the staff was really nice and understood our situation.However, the cleanliness was very, very poor and the hotel is in need of renovation. I definitely agree with the reviews; One of the worst hotels I've ever stayed in, according to my experience.Absolutely not worth the money!

Unless you invest properly here, I advise everyone not to book here.Absolutely dirty, moldy and outdated. Price performance not available.

I arrived at night. The hotel's parking spaces are all occupied, even though they are described differently.Key handover via safe.Rooms with outdated furnishings. Sockets or extension cables from walls. It was the last time there for me. I haven't seen a worse hotel yet. Maybe we were also given the last room. Because we were only there one night. Sorry for the review but I see it objectively. I'm sorry that money was spent on this. Don't really understand other reviews or there are show rooms.I didn't see any employees.

The hotel is old and in desperate need of renovation. The furnishings are old and the bed linen, for me, has holes. The TV didn't work and the breakfast wasn't great either. The only positive point is the staff, they were friendly and helpful.

We stayed at the Hotel Lessinghof for one night. There is a small, free parking space behind the house and access is controlled via a key safe. The employee we met was very nice.The hotel was certainly impressive in the past, but today is no longer the same. You should urgently invest a few euros in the hotel so as not to lose the old charm of such a house. It could be nice...

The rooms are absolutely in need of renovation. Saggy beds, ancient carpet and broken parts falling off the wall. We are from Hanover and were welcomed as guests from Hanoi. He thought it was funny, we didn't care. Other guests would describe this as disrespectful. The short walk to the old town was positive and the breakfast was very good. 67 € including breakfast is ok.

The hotel is old, but I can't say anything bad. I stayed in a nice room for one person. There is everything you need, the internet is good. The staff is normal.

The hotel is now optically 0-8-15 in terms of facilities but for €72 a night in the middle of the city center with available parking it doesn't matter.Everything is clean, the furniture is not modern but serves its purpose and that's about it, deduction since no one is there in the evening, not absolutely necessary but you feel more comfortable if you do. Otherwise everything is as negative as some others here, I don't see the whole thing for free parking and the best city center location.

First I called at 20.32 that I was later due to a traffic jam on the Polish border of 21 Km, I said I will be in at least 3 hours later. Then at 0.44 I arrived and called again, hotel closed as of 22PM, the owner said, and I needed to find another hotel myself. I have no smartphone so I drove another 450 km and was home at 5.30 AM!!!!!!!!!! Later on checking my mail the hotel already cancelled my room on Thursday due to heating problems. Ergo, when calling at 20.32 they already could have told me the hotel was closed!!!!!!!!!!

The room wasn't clean, the bed wasn't right, a small towel for the shower and to dry your face, TV didn't work. It was the worst night of my life.
