This is not a hotel by any reasonable standard. This was one of the worst accommodation experiences I’ve ever had. Despite language online suggesting “modern,” “comfortable,” & conveniently located accommodation, this is deeply misleading. In reality, this property operates more like a poorly maintained hostel and should not be listed alongside legitimate hotels. The walls are paper-thin - you can hear people breathe next door & coming in & out all night making sleep impossible. The bed was extremely uncomfortable: hard, bowed in the middle, & so noisy that any movement caused loud creaking, waking us repeatedly throughout the night. The bathroom layout is poorly designed: the shower & toilet are crammed together, while the sink is inexplicably in the bedroom. There are no tea or coffee-making facilities in the room or anywhere on site, which is unacceptable even for budget accommodation. On a Sunday morning, when most local cafés are closed, this made getting a simple coffee very difficult. We only booked this property because it appeared close to the station. In practice, it really isn’t convenient, especially with luggage. There is no lift, so heavy suitcases must be carried up the stairs. The room itself was extremely small, with barely any space to open luggage or move comfortably & no fridge. The photos online are deceptive, showing a level of space and comfort that does not exist. Charging prices comparable to genuine 3- or 4-star hotels in EU capitals is insane.

A warning for anyone looking to stay here, and especially book the "apartment", this is no better than a hostel. The "apartment" is in fact three rooms on the top floor and a small, tired bathroom. There is no communal area you'd expect from an apartment, the rooms do not have air con, safes or fridges which is a basic amenity for a normal hotel room, let alone an apartment. The shower in the bathroom is not fit for purpose, the toilet is caked in grime, and there was a resident dead wasp on the floor of our entire stay, meaning the bathroom was not cleaned once. DO NOT stay here if you want to feel like you're staying in a hotel.

About a 15-20 minute walk to the center. When booking it said that the hotel is smoke-free, but it's very obvious when going up the stairs that people smoke there due to the very strong smell of smoke.

Kleines Hotel im Stadtviertel Köln-Deutz. Für Gäste, die auf eine Veranstaltung in der LANXESS Arena gehen: das Hotel ist etwa 10-15 min fußläufig erreichbar. Das Auto kann im Parkhaus der Arena abgestellt werden für einen Tagespreis von 20€. Vor dem Hotel und in der Umgebung sind Parkplätze eher rar. Für Gäste, die die Stadt besuchen wollen: der Bahnhof Köln/Deutz ist in etwa 5 min fußläufig erreichbar. Die Hohenzollernbrücke und der Kölner Dom in etwa 10 min bzw. 20 min zu Fuß. In der direkten Umgebung des Hotels gibt es einen Einkaufsmarkt, der zwischen 07:00 und 24:00 Uhr geöffnet hat. Zudem einen Bioladen, kleinere lokale Läden und Bäckereien, Cafés (auch Frühstück) und Kneipen, sodass man morgens gut in den Tag starten und abends den Tag ausklingen lassen kann. Lage also mehr als optimal. Zum Hotel: Preis Leistung sehr gut. Wir, zwei Erwachsene, haben eines der Doppelzimmer (Kompakt) gebucht. Das Zimmer hält, was es verspricht. Ein Doppelbett in einem recht kleinen, spartanisch eingerichteten Zimmer mit eigenem Bad. Zimmer und Bad waren sauber. Dennoch sollte man anmerken, dass das Zimmer sehr hellhörig, da es im Treppenhaus liegt und das Bett klein war und bei jeder Bewegung geknarzt hat. Grundsätzlich für ein bis zwei Nächte kein Problem, dennoch sollten sich die Bewohner des Zimmers sehr gut kennen, da wenig Raum zum Ausweichen ist. Fazit: Weiterempfehlung, falls o.g. Punkte kein Problem sind. Alternativ ein größeres Zimmer des Hotels buchen.
