The hotel had rooms that were bright due to the lack of blinds on the roof windows, somewhat smoky, and with multiple unidentified spots, but overall, they were quiet and acceptable. The service was friendly but misleading about additional fees, reminding me of Fawlty Towers. The location was excellent, especially for those traveling for pleasure in Frankfurt, with easy access to the city center. The dining experience was decent, though some improvements could be made. The facilities offered were satisfactory.

The hotel is conveniently located with easy access to the city center and surrounding areas. The rooms, though a bit small and lacking soundproofing, feature separate beds and a large TV that was unfortunately not working during my stay. The absence of reception in English made communication challenging, especially during checkout and when I needed to rush to the airport.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and cozy for the price, but they smelled very bad upon arrival. The view from the 6th floor was nice, even though the lift only goes up to the 5th floor, so there's a bit of a trek down the corridor to get to your room.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms had mold in the shower, and the TV didn't work, displaying a message in German with no reception. However, the room provided was small. The service, though friendly, reminded me of a chaotic scene from Fawlty Towers. Despite the language barrier during check-out, the staff tried to assist. The location was convenient, close to the city center, but the description did not accurately reflect the surroundings. The dining was basic, with inconsistent quality depending on who was in charge. The facilities were limited. Overall, there were some positives but also notable negatives to consider.

Staying on the top floor was a real lifesaver in this hot and humid weather as I had great ventilation from the roof window and no traffic noise. The room, located on the 5th floor, consisted of 2 mattresses pushed together, which was acceptable considering the price.

Rooms

The room was on the top floor, providing excellent ventilation and peace from noise. The setup with 2 mattresses pushed together was fine for the price.

Service

The service had its ups and downs. While some staff members were aggressive and rude insisting that I was in the wrong, there was one very helpful staff member, though I forgot her name. The handling of food with sneezing and blowing the nose was a concern, but they did explain the layout of the building despite some confusion.

The location was excellent, just a 10-minute walk to the historical center and a minute away from a street filled with lively pubs. Close proximity to the tram stop and the big Christmas market added value to the stay.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The room, though lacking air conditioning, was surprisingly peaceful on the top floor, offering relief from the hot and humid weather. However, there were occasional unpleasant odors like smoke or urine. The service was a bit inconsistent; while some staff members were welcoming and helpful, others seemed unfriendly and unaccommodating. The location, in the Sachsenhausen neighborhood, was convenient and close to the city center. The dining options were decent, but there were some improvements needed in variety and quality. Overall, a somewhat average stay with its ups and downs.

The hotel had a cozy charm with its attic-like rooms featuring low ceilings, which reminded me of a Harry Potter setting. While it felt a bit stuffy at times, the unique design added character to the room. However, the inability to adjust the room configuration was a drawback.

My stay at the hotel was quite an adventure. The room was literally 35 degrees and lacked fresh air initially, although it was at the level one at the initially booked price. The service, especially from the helpful and really friendly staff, was exceptional despite a faulty lighting issue beeping all night. The location was great, just a short walk to the historical center and close to a street with plenty of pubs. The dining experience was just as expected for a 3-star hotel, with healthy dishes available.
