Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a first come first serve basis for rooms with a back yard view. The broken tiles and poorly functioning shower were drawbacks, but the provision of a fan added a touch of joy to the stay. The service was excellent and accommodating, providing everything requested. The location, while good next to the train station, had room for improvement in the service. The dining experience offered a good variety of choices, and the spare ribs were a highlight. The facilities were adequate, with some room for enhancement in certain areas.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, although in need of renovation, were clean and spacious, making for an enjoyable stay. The service was helpful despite a few unexpected encounters. The location was convenient but had some drawbacks with the surrounding area. The dining experience was nice, with a few hiccups. The facilities provided added value to my stay.
The hotel has a great location right next to the main railway station in Frankfurt, making it convenient for transportation purposes. The rooms, although a bit small and not fully soundproof, are adequate for a short stay. The service is friendly and efficient, making check-in and out a breeze, and they even provide a nice little free mini bar in the room. However, the noise from the traffic and nearby bars can be a downside if you are a light sleeper.
The guest house room was small, warm, and in need of renovation, despite the friendly staff. The location, however, was excellent in the center of Frankfurt with convenient transportation options.
The hotel had some drawbacks like old rooms without proper ventilation, making it uncomfortably hot for sleep, and small room sizes, but the friendly service and convenient location near the main train station were definite highlights.
