Very good

Sehr freundliches Personal, schön, dass Ritual im Bad als Duschgel vorhanden. Sauber. Frühstück sehr " übersichtlich " für den Preis von 17.- Euro. Bad sehr eng, Steckdosen schlecht erreichbar. Restaurants relativ weit
Het vroegere « Ypsilon » recent overgenomen door Dorint. Vlotte incheckprocedure. Eenpersoonskamer is voldoende ruim. Gratis flesje water op de kamer. Hotel gelegen op wandelafstand van de hippe wijk Rüttenscheid en van de Gruga. Zeer fait tarief voor één nacht. Parkeergarage voorhanden.
Hotel macht einen guten Eindruck. Leider immer noch Teppichboden in jedem Zimmer. Finde ich persönlich nicht hygienisch. Jedes Zimmer war zu warm. Auch bei geöffneten Fenster kaum Besserung. Zimmerreinigung nur auf Anfrage. Minibar vorhanden aber nicht gefüllt. Brauche ich aber auch nicht. Restaurant und Bar geschlossen. Frühstück war gut. Da sollte für jeden was dabei sein. Für Kurzaufenthalt absulut OK.
Etwas älteres Vier-Sterne-Hotel. Erwartungen wurden erfüllt. Im Zimmer fehlen Steckdosen.

Bra i stort sätt. Personalen i Receptionen (nattvakt) hade inte noterat att väcka mig kl 02.00 som skulle ta taxi till morgon flyg från Düsseldorf .
Annars OK.
Wir waren bei unserer Ankunft am Samstag, 28.12. sehr erfreut, dass wir bereits unsere Zimmer beziehen konnten, obwohl es noch nicht einmal 12:00 Uhr war. Vielen Dank dafür.
Chambre confortable et silencieuse, petit déjeuner sous forme de buffet particulièrement riche et copieux. Seul bémol, pour nous français, la barrière de la langue.
Der bestellte tv mit Satelliten Anschluss war nicht angeschlossen, das Badezimmer hatte einen unangenehmen Geruch, das Bett war hart und auf dem Sofa war ein gelber Fleck
Für fast 70 Euro , plus 10 Euro parken ,plus 14 Euro Frühstück ( also fast 100 Euro ) haben meine Frau und ich ein abgewohntes Zimmer ohne AC aber mit Wasserkocher im Kleiderschrank bekommen. Das Frühstück war Top , die Sauberkeit des Zimmers war auch in Ordnung, Personal war Super und sehr Hilfsbereit.

La réceptionniste très agréable, l’hôtel a besoin d’une rénovation, des mobiliers sombres et anciens, pas de climatisation, la chambre donnant sur la route très bruyante. Petit déjeuner complet, à la demande si vous partez tôt, on vous prépare un lunch packet.
Das Hotel ist gut zu erreichen. Bus, U-Bahn in der Nähe. Die Einkaufsstraße Rü in der Nähe. Zimmer ruhig. Nettes Personal. Ge nug Parkplätze. Sehr reichhaltiges Frühstück.
