Overall a nice stay.
Room smelled a bit of cigarettes and it had numerous signs of ware and tare. Other than that the hotel building it self looked bit run down. On the flip side everything was clean and very comfortable beds made up for couple bad points. Very nice breakfast bar also did make up for bit of smells 😁

Lovely hotel
This was a lovely hotel for our family vacation. There is no air conditioning so keep that in mind when booking. The room was clean, the staff was friendly, and the breakfast was more than enough to get you started for the day.

Ok
I stayed with a colleague for a congress in Giessen, the room was smaller than expected, it should have been 40 m2, however this must have included the balcony. Furniture pretty old. Bathroom extremely small. The double bed upstairs to be reached over very steep and small steps. Overall ok, but I wouldn t turn back.

The hotel was very clean and centrally located. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was excellent. Value for price was very good. We had a triple room with a loft and very nice balcony - a very nice treat to sit outside in the cool September weather. The hotle is close to the bus route (just across the street). They allowed us a rather late check-out the day we left. I will certainly stay there again on my next trip.

Typical for the price range
Location is good as you can walk to the city center (healthy but not impossible distance) as well as very close to a grocery store. Underground parking is tight (literally). So, if you haven't practiced your backing in/out from very, very tight places, this may turn out to be a challenge for you. I happened to stay during somewhat of a heatwave, and not having an air conditioner or even a fan in my room was torturous. Shower stall, while clean, has a design flaw. The control for hot/cold water flow sticks out for you to constantly bump into (within the very tight space of the stall), and you are either immediately scolded or iced unexpectedly. Even if you expect it, the experience is jarring. A simple switch to a different faucet type would solve this problem. So, hotel management, please take note.
