The room was very old, the toilet seat was broken and clearly been attempted to be fixed multiple times but failed. The beds were uncomfortable. The room and linens were clean but let down by the overall condition of the room. The staff were mostly unwelcoming but the location was perfect.

The hotel has a really good location and the room whilst a bit spartan was clean. Where I felt let down is that the hotel is a bit shabby and sometimes the staff were not around. I appreciate people are busy but getting your ket back should not take six minutes.

The hotel is not new but our room had been redone and was perfectly fine. The rate is really good for the location. Obviously being close to the cathedral means front row seat for the bell ringing ;-). So if you enjoy a lie-in, it's probably better to choose an hotel further away. The area around the hotel is great, lively with lots of options to eat.

Overall, not a terrible place to stay for a few nights. It's a bit noisy outside with the cathedral bells in the mornings and people walking around at night, but the location is super convenient since it is right next to the train station and the Cologne Cathedral. Rooms were pretty spacious and clean.
