Room was extremely tiny, view of emergency staircase, charmless, too expensive

Linen and towel perfectly clean.
Selection of food for breakfast could be better for the price (e.g. no scrambled or fried eggs, only dry cooked). Confusing info about the start of the breakfast (7:00 or 8:00).

Location is good, quite central, very close to the train station
First of all I requested a check in at 11am which the hotel replied with "ok". Upon arriving at almost 12:00 there I was not allowed to check in as I was told someone was still in the room (even though they state 12:00 is their checkout time!). When I asked what the check out time was for them, the receptionist wouldn't tell me, and they told me to stroll around with no guarantee of when it'd be available, however I had something important at 3pm (and bear in mind it was 40 C outside, so after a long flight I really needed to check in). The receptionist kindly let me have the key for when I come back, but they wanted me to write my Credit card on a piece of paper as an insurance (which is very insecure, thus I did not). I came back at 2:30 p.m. and it was still not ready. I had to wait a bit and told the receptionist that I had something important. After 15 minutes or so it was finally ready. The room was clean and tidy, but it's definitely not what I expected. The photos don't show but the room is very small and super warm. There's a very small fan which is definitely not enough for the hot summer in Germany. I really don't recommend coming here during summer. The towels were nice and clean, but the toilet paper was super cheap and the same goes for the body wash They also provided some Sparkling water and to my surprise no still water ! There were also no plastic bags I had to ask around. They don't provide room service unless explicitly asked for. The breakfast is alright, nothing extraordinary but good enough.

Traditional feel and quaint small hotel surrounded by offices. Good city centre location, 10 mins max walk from station. Quiet area. Nice breakfast area and food. High ceilings with chandelier in room.
No tea/coffee facility in room and no other place to get a drink other than a vending machine.

The property is ideally located near all major attractions. The room was clean and pleasant.
The only minor issue was the shower. The door was a bit complicated to handle, especially when getting out, and it didn’t close completely, so some water tended to spill onto the floor.
