I would like to recognize the young lady who was at the front desk when I arrived, on 6 January 2025 around 23:00. She was extremely helpful and pleasant. She even went out of her way to iron out the wrinkles that were encountered, frankly, due to my carelessness. I do not remember her name, but she made my stay at this less-than-desirable property, a pleasant one.

I would recommend this hotel to anyone taking a short trip to Frankfurt! It is attached to a movie theater which is both cool and loud at times. There was very loud construction and a school nearby that made for quite a bit of noise during the day. Outside of that, the front desk was very accommodating, the breakfast was wonderful, and the area was very walkable. They have good wifi and can make accommodations for food allergies. No laundry service.
