Over night stay
The room was a bit small for a family room, but as we were staying just one night it didn’t matter too much.

This hotel was very convenient to Cologne and Bonn. The hotel was clean and welcoming. The free breakfast was delicious. The umbrella rental was wonderful as it was raining outside those days. We were very comfortable and enjoyed our stay.

Short city break
Hotel in a great location by car and also a short (10/15 minute) walk to the nearest metro station to then then explore the more central area of Cologne. The hotel breakfast was excellent and for further food/goods there is a McDonalds next door and a petrol station with a well stocked shop.

Outstanding staff and service - especially the gentleman at the front desk at night, I think his name was Simon. However, the location was a little shady and not much besides a McDonald's and gas station near by.

All in all a fine place for an overnight. The carpet was stained in some areas. Wish hotels would do away with carpets and stuck with laminate.
