Plus: Hotel is a short (2-block) walk to the Charlemagne museum (highly recommended) and Aachen cathedral (English tour at 2 PM). Room has temperature and fan controls. Minus: Hotel signage outside is tiny -- almost invisible from the street. No space in front to park. No info on nearby parking garages on website.
I only stayed at this place one night, but it was a generally good experience overall and I would definitely stay here again. The staff were quite pleasant with great English - they held my bags for a few hours after I checked out and before my next train. Unfortunately breakfast was not included with my rate and I was unwilling to pay 17 euros for it (though it did look to be among the better breakfasts I saw in Germany). Instead, I went to a nearby grocery store and put some drinks, fruit and snacks in my fridge and for my train ride - 11 euros to feed me all day! The hotel was right in the middle of town with lots of shopping and the cathedral close by. The Christmas markets and their daily produce market were right outside the door. You do need a cab to get there from the train station, however.
Location was great and service professional. We would stay again on any future visit to Aachen. We visited historic sites in central Aachen and the Russian State Circus which was in town. Very enjoyable weekend. When in the center of town you have to expect some noise. Room was too warm until about 4:00 am. Street noise precluded opening windows.
Hotel is in Great location, located in the heart of the city. The hotel is very modern with all the modern amenities. The rooms are pretty spacious and very clean. The hotel does have parking; however, it's located across the street from the hotel and isn't marked. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms have a/c; however, the coolest temperature is 18C. The room was very hot, so we opened the windows at night since we sweated the previous night. Unfortunately, the street was so loud that we didn't get a good night sleep. Overall a good hotel.
