Good all-round hotel with a...

Liked: The breakfast was great, and the service was good. We enjoyed the pool. The pool was well maintained and open from very early until very late. Very nice.The hotel has a good vibe, with free coffee and snacks at the reception all day round.
Disliked: The hotel carpets look dirty / damaged here and there. Maybe it is time for a face lift.Also, the hotel location is a little bit low end, with lots of litter on the streets in the area.

Liked: - most important for me, I found the room and hotel to be clean and comfortable.- the hotel offers a good breakfast. There’s a slightly older lady always busy and making sure everything is running smoothly and plates are tidied / cups refilled. - 4/5 mins stroll straight up on the same road is buchforst Waldecker Straße station and a number 3 train takes you direct to Lanx arena in a few mins. A couple of minutes further on that road is buchforst station which takes you direct to Cologne central station. So whilst you aren’t next to the cathedral/old city centre, the transit system is so easy to get anywhere from airport to any day trips. Tickets can be bought online and at stations and on trains and there are so many stations, you’re always close to atleast a few options to get around.- the candy and popcorn station is a really welcoming touch in the hotel lobby. - I liked the fact there are a couple of supermarkets next door for you to pop in and buy a few essentials. I also tried the one eatery nearby called Adana Grill which served me fresh and tasty Turkish food.
Disliked: - The hotel is more tired looking than the pictures would like you to believe.- The hotels bar and restaurant being open seemed to be a bit hit and miss , it was fine for me as I ate out but not great if you are depending on this option.- whilst I don’t expect an over the top customer service style, the boys on reception can at least try and look a bit bothered and act a bit more helpful. They weren’t rude or anything like that , but it’s really not the best image you want to be portraying.
