Room ok. When booking, however, it was not pointed out that the sauna was not accessible to "normal" guesthouse guests on the day of booking, but only to squad athletes. If you advertise such extras, you should also be transparent if there are any restrictions. The restaurant was already closed at 5 p.m. Not much would be expected, because the breakfast offered the next morning was significantly overpriced.

Nothing special. More like a canteen. But you wouldn't expect anything else there.

True before the home game between FC Cologne and Ulm because there is always a beer garden there in 1991

The kind of accommodation that makes you almost wonder that there's actually a (albeit very small, basic) TV in the room and the shower is actually warm. Window cannot be opened properly - only tilted position. The result is that it smells musty. There is no WiFi. No soap at the sink, only a box filled to a minimum in the shower. The toothbrush cups were actually just “decorative” because the plastic didn’t make a trustworthy impression either visually or hygienically. Room door cannot be closed, must be locked. Breakfast "buffet"...that's how I imagine the GDR back then. Youth hostel would be nicer. Coffee is only available in a lonely pot, which is refilled in time depending on your luck. Hairdryer is only available upon request. The footpath there is a mud path - depending on the weather. Shameful for a sports university guest house.Staff is very friendly and helpful!The location is also ideal if you want to visit the RheinEnergieStadion. Easily accessible by public transport - but a few minutes' walk.

The receptionists are nice, the breakfast is good, I think it's expensive, but because of the EB, it was in an excellent location! The rooms are clean!
