I forgot my wallet in the room and the employees were super nice and let me go back in to look for it. Great vibes all around, clean place, and a really awesome stop if you have a big group.

Nice enough room, clean, simple but perfect for our needs. Reception staff not particularly friendly/helpful - especially the maintenance guy.

The staff were not the most pleasant. I was initially placed in a room with two men (I'm a solo female traveler). When I asked to be relocated to a female-only room, the staff begrudgingly placed me in a room that was already full. The third room they placed me in was great, and very clean. But I basically had to unpack, re-pack, and haul my heavy suitcases around the property several times which was quite troublesome.

My day layover from the Frankfurt airport free subway and bus system. The price with free public transport makes it perfect more so than the facilities.

Easy to find, decent location, but room was very dirty. moved the twin beds apart and there was so much dust underneath that my black socks were white with so much dust. Bed sheets had hair from previous users. Bathroom was fairly clean though. Seems like they focus on certain areas more than others. Will not be staying here again.

Problem after problem
We arrived at the hotel at around 10:30pm but there was a long line for check in. We didn’t actually get our room key until nearly midnight. We were travelling with 2 young children who were already exhausted so this was a very long wait. When we got to the room, there wasn’t enough sheets for the beds or pillow or duvet covers. The curtains didn’t cover the window so we had no privacy and we’re woken up at dawn as we had no way to block out the sunrise. When my husband went down to the desk to ask for more bedding and to query the lack of curtains there was already a separate queue for complaints. He was told there was no more bedding but it might arrive in the middle of the night so he could check back then. He was given no advice about the curtains. We all had a terrible night sleep and I will absolutely avoid using this hotel again. They have not tried to resolve anything or contact us. Very disappointing.
