I would avoid this hotel if possible. I arrived and was placed in a smoking room. I asked to move to a nonsmoking room, and the reception staff said that while they were available, smoking rules are not enforced at the property every room is essentially a smoking room. The smell of smoke is strong everywhere in the hotel. One morning when I was attempting to leave for the day, the receptionist had stepped away from the desk and had locked the front door, locking all the guests in the hotel until they returned. The rooms are also not particularly clean, with no daily housekeeping, overflowing garbages, and noticeable grime.

Not bad for the price

Room I stayed in was small but clean.There was quite a lot of noise from the streets and the rooms are not sound proofed at all.There was a safe in the room but no instructions on how to use it - when I asked about this at reception I was told that they didn't know how to use the safe.It's ok for the price and is in the red light district which is frequented by drunks and homeless junkies who are irritating rather than threatening and the area is well policed.

Can we can polizei!

Frightening experience especially outside of hotel. Didn't realize I would see a gun shot on the outside window and across the street is a cabaret with drug deals viewed from my balcony window. Upon returning to hotel, we were locked outside with a sign that says the staff will be back shortly. This definitely is no 3 star hotel.

Poor stay next to the red light district

Poor stay overall, very bad smoke smell in room despite asking for a non-smoking room. Located in the city but right next to the bars and red light district with many hookers standing next to the hotel at night. Very small room and dirty. Our worse stay in Germany of our 14 days here.

Clean room, they charge for WiFi

Room was small but clean. Good enough. The ad was clear that they charged for WiFi, so I shouldn't complain, but I had not noticed that and just found it annoying. Not a big deal. The street was a little unsavory, and some German friends were a little dismayed to hear I was staying there, but I had no problems. Just be prepared if you can't handle a slightly seedy location.

Extremely poor location, even for a budget hotel. I felt unsafe the moment I got there for the entire week. Hotel staff are very rude and unfriendly. Charge a lot for wifi that never works. Frankfurt is a beautiful place but my accommodation ruined the experience.

Better than expected

For £20 a night each in a twin room I was perfectly well satisfied. Excellent location to the city centre and near the river, and the room itself was simple but almost flawless (luke-warm shower). Only downside was the lack of both German and English speaking ability from the employees, however 24 hour reception meant that it was easy to come and go at all hours. If you're looking for a budget hotel, then I would recommend this one.

Close to train station, that's about it

Very close to the main Frankfurt train station (5 minute walk) but in a sketchy part of the city with urine smell, vagrants outside, etc. It was loud at night as well. The hotel amenities are not great - wifi and breakfast are expensive. Other than the close vicinity to the train station, I would recommend looking elsewhere in this price range.
