“Very basic hotel”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2011

Very basic hotel; nice location, good breakfast. Friendly staff.

Negatives:
Small room w/out wardrobe or fridge, hard to accommodate spending more than one-two days, very dim sign on the façade - it was hard to find and we actually passed by a few times before we were able to find it.

Expensive and slow internet, although the receptionists regularly passed out free one hour passes for WiFi.

“Good - but nothing special”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 November 2010

Stayed here with some friends for one night during a bike tour through the RheinRuhr-Area.
Location is good: Close to the shopping area and to the Colosseum-Theater. Just on the other side of the street you drop in an IKEA store - seems to be unique in the inner city.
We could lock our cycles in the garage of the hotel. Rooms were ok but really nothing special. Same applies for breakfast. Overall ok, but only for one or two nights.

“Dishonesty”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 October 2010

person found this review helpful

It was a small clean room but for a 3 stars hotel, it is amazing having rooms without refrigrtaors!
The internet price was so high. 10 Euro for each night. The break fast was average. The worst thing was the price. When we call them, they announed 79 Euro for a double room for each night but at the time of Check out, the asked us 89 Euro!!! We will never go there again.
