Just what was needed and a great location.
Didn’t realise I had booked a hostel but the private room was very good for the time I was staying in the Cologne. The staff were excellent and kind and extremely helpful especially with sorting a fan out in the middle of the night due to the heat. Location just a 5 minute walk from Central Station is also a positive.

Great Stopover
We visited as a quick stopover enroute by train from Sweden to the UK. The hotel was easy to find and a short walk from Cologne station. We arrived just after 11.30pm and were greeted and provided our room. The room was basic, but clean, warm and functional. Only downside was no lift as we had some heavy bags, but on balance a great experience.

Good, but woud be better in cooler weather
Nice receptio, friendly staff. The weather was very hot, no air conditioning so I had to have the windows open. This let in a lot of noise from the small park and playground opposite and the boy racers squealing their tires and revving their engines until the early hours. Hardly the hotel's fault though. Breakfast was very good, self service

This property, although it calls itself a hotel, it's more like a hostle. It's more of what it doesn't have then what it does have. There is no AC, no phone, no washcloths, no hand towels, no fan, no elevator, one hanger. It felt way too minimalistic and definitely not worth the $200 a night that we paid.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
At the time of reservation, there was no explanation that it was a hostel. Our room was for two people, but there was no elevator in the entire building, so I had to carry heavy bags up to the 3rd floor, and I felt a lot of pain because of my bad knees. The weather was 29 degrees and there was no air conditioning in the room. Only 2 towels. The bathroom smelled bad. I booked this place 2 months ago for $572 CAD for 2 nights. It's a ridiculous place for that price.
