Basic in name basic in nature
The hotel is excellently placed in central Kiel but it is decidedly shabby and in need of redecoration. The rooms were, however, clean, comfortable and had en suite facilities. The hotel reception was closed on arrival and I had to go to another hotel to check in. Some VERY noisy guests on Saturday.

Horrible service
Dear Expedia First of all I will say that its not NICE to lie to people. Imagine get to a Hotel after 20 hours flying with bags of 50 pounds and someone from the Hotel tells you that there is NO elevator and your room is on the 4th floor. I will request a refund, in a case you guys make a contract with a hotel without elevator, please let people know. really disappointed about Expedia and the Hotel.

Near the cruise ships
The room was small and there is no lift nor AC, but we didn't need it for long. Right by the shopping district and the mall. Walking distance to cruise ships maybe a mile.

OK if you just want a cheap bed
Cheap and super basic, but not comfortable/modern/quiet enough for my own personal tastes. The hotel is not as smart as the photos show, both inside and outside. Dark and regrettably drab inside and outside, it's not an "inviting" hotel. However, it is close to the main train station (easy 10 minute walk) and the reception was very helpful.

Not Good
We ended up checking in and checking out within the hour. It was terrible. Service was good with the girl at the front desk but no elevator and we had to carry our big suit case up 8 flights of stairs. It looks like it hasn't been cleaned since the 70s and everything was just old and out dated. In a convenient area but I would never stay there.

Basic means Basic
This Hotel is located in the middle of the City Kiel, which is convenient if you want/need to be in the City. Breakfast was great, employees very friendly. But a lot of things need improvement. Outdated Furniture which in parts needed repair and was not usable. TV is not satellite like they advertised, very basic old tube TV. Shower only cold or Hot, warm would have been nice. If you need a basic Hotel to stay for a day or two with no luxuries, this will do. If you want a international standard Hotel, you might want to pick a different one.

Easy walk from station, but download a map as the hotel is not easy to find. Good heating in room, which is adjustable. No air conditioning for Summer. Free internet from the bank opposite. Good buffet breakfast. Only a single size bed and one soft pillow, which was a problem. Windows that open. No telephone in room. Bad lighting so if you need to read anything you have to sit in the bathroom. Okay for short business trip. Close walking distance to Stenna ferry port and good shopping centre. No lift, but a low rise building.

Basic, yes, but definitely not bad.
Ok, so there's no phone in the rooms (which I thought was kind of weird), and half of the hotel is in the neighbouring building (giving you no access to the reception once the door is locked) but the rooms were very clean and bright and the staff were polite and helpful. There was no hair dryer in the room as advertised, and the cleaning staff forgot to replace one of our towels one day, but by and large it was an ok place to stay. Definitely not luxurious, but comfortable for a few days stay. The location was fantastic too. You really can't be more central than this.

nice experience
I liked the hotel very much, as it is located very centrally in Kiel, close to the railway station and the bus stops. One can find a variety of shops and places to eat in a 1km district. I liked very much the alternative decoration of the hotel, the cute warm breakfast hall. The breakfast buffet was extremely satisfying with big variety. My room was very clean with a big comfortable bathroom, although the staff did not change my towls in a 6-day period. The only disadvantage I found was the noise, as the walls are thin and you can hear the next room's occupants. In general the hotel reminded me of a student hostel, which I found very refreshing and emotional!

Truly a BASIC hotel
This hotel was surprisingly hard to find as it is tucked away on a small side street that doesn't show up readily on maps. The hotel main lobby was nice enough, and the woman was pleasant. But don't have any illusions...this is a BASIC hotel. As I suspected, there was no elevator and I had to schlep my luggage up several flights. The hallways were poorly lit and it felt a little too quiet. When I got to the room, it was quite nice but was missing a few things. First, it had the requisite standard tiny TV. But mine didn't work. Surprisingly, there was no phone, so there was no one to complain to. Also, there is no internet unless you are on the front side of the hotel where you can get access ot the the wireless network of a small banking office. The room and bathroom, however, was clean, though outdated. The continental breakfast was basic, but nice enough.

Udemærket hotelophold, men...
Opholdet var godt. Morgenmaden var god og værelset var fint. Dog ankommer vi kl 15, da det er der vi fik at vide at check-in, var der lukket for receptionen. Vi blev nødt til at gå til nabohotellet omkring 200 meter væk. Det stod på døren på vores hotel. Vi fik nøglekort og fik at vide hvor parkering skulle foregå og derefter gik det fint. Værelset var småt men fint med en dobbeltseng og lille badeværelse. Ikke familievenligt, hvis man har små børn med. Under sengen og på lister og dørkame var der snavset og støvet. Som sagt, god morgenmad, selv i corona-tiderne :) Udemærket hotelophold med god beliggenhed direkte ud til gågade, med mange spisesteder og butikker.

Dålig info om receptionens öppettider
Flera olika besked när receptionen är öppen. Enligt information hos Hotels var receptionen öppen till 22. När jag ringde och anmälde sen ankomst uppgavs att reception stänger kl 20. Mycket svårt att komma fram. Ringde Hotels och fick beskedet att receptionen stänger kl 18 men att nyckel får hämtas på intilliggande hotell. När vi kom fram visade det sig att receptionen stänger kl 16. Intilliggande hotell kunde inte se att vi bokat. Fick rum på 3:e vån. Ingen hiss vi fick bära vårt bagage upp i trapporna

God beliggenhed. Værelserne har det minimum og god til en shoppingtur. Vi var en familie afsted kun til 1 dags shopping. Vi benyttede kun værelserne til at sove i. Morgenmaden fik vi ikke. Men den så heller ikke lækkert ud. Vi benyttede os af de lokale bager som var meget hyggelig. Hotellet er billigt og vi booker
