Berg

( 1 star , Cologne , Germany )

For what I booked and because I only needed a very simple accomodation for one night it was quiet allright. The only thing I found a bit strange was that I had to book a second room only for the reason that my wife, which left Cologne a few hours later, wanted to put her luggage in the room and take a little rest. That`s their companypolicy and for this it has to be respected. I was just missing a little bit flexebility. In general I got what I have booked and I would not hesitate to stay there again, if it is for only one night.

When we are there we witness a shouting match between the daytime manager and an asian guest. We do not know what was the cause but earlier we saw them talking quietly then suddenly they were shouting at each other.We think that the owner should not have quarreled like that with a guest. Our experience with this manager was that he is polite but not friendly. The night time manager is more approachable.

The main gripe I would have with this hotel was the bed. It was terrible. The thin foam mattress left you with aching hips the following morning. I challenge the owner to sleep in them one the night to see what his guests have to endure...so be warned if

-it was very cold in our room..

with 70 euro per room per night you can buy a pair of good bad, some good light and if there is only a bathroom on the floor you have to do something for the smell. About the rest, nothing to say, for 2 or 3 nights is ok

+The Location. The ease of checking in/out. The service. The helpful staff

Simple but conveniently situated hotel in a quiet street but close to the dom and the main train station. Helpful staff and reasonable rates

This small B&B was everything as advertised and everything I needed. Very close to train station and within easy walking distance of cathedral and downtown shopping area. Staff helpful and friendly.

Good: Staff was friendly and helpful. Location was good. Easy to find. Breakfast was good. Showers and toilet were clean. Bad: only complaint was that the beds were as hard as rocks. I have been in german hotels before and across europe. These were the hardest beds I have encountered. They are similar to laying on a thinly carpeted floor and made for a poor nights sleep. Hopefully they invest in new mattresses soon. Ouch.

The hotel is good on average. If you want different details you better know the german language because the staff know very little english.
