OK til prisen

Det lignede ikke, at det blev gjort rent særlig ofte. Der var ingen ting såsom gardiner, der kunne lukke den øverste køje af, så hvis folk kom sent hjem, fik man lys lige i ansigtet. Det ligger tæt på banegården, hvilket er fedt. Til gengæld er vinduerne på ingen måde lydtætte, så man kan høre alle tog køre forbi og alle meddelelser over højtalerne på banegården igennem hele aftenen og morgenen. Lidt træls, men også rigtig billigt.

Utrivelig rom

Negativt: Tristeste rommet jeg har sovet i noen gang. Grå vegger, mørkegrått tak, svarte lamper med gitter rundt, skarpt lys, tung lukt da kom inn i rommet, dårlig stemning. Selve hostellet var og ikke spesielt trivelig men kom om kvelden og dro tidlig morgenen etter. Ikke håndkler på rommet, kanskje vanlig på hostel, men kunne ha opplyst om det når reiser med barn og ikke er ungdomsbackpacker. Er mer vant til hotell men har bodd på hostel før uten å få dårlig inntrykk. Måtte gjøre nesten hele innsjekkingen selv, fylle inn pass osv, det er lite service etter en lang togreise som sikkert mange andre som bor der. Positivt: Veldig hyggelige vennlige ansatte i resepsjonen. Det var overraskende lite støy fra toget på en hverdagsnatt selv om rett v togstasjonen, sikkert pga ikke så mye tog kjører forbi Aachen om natta. Rent bad og ellers. Kort vei til toget. Men ikke et godt opphold for oss.

In die Jahre gekommen

Sind seit Eröffnung (waren mit die ersten Gäste im A&O Aachen) jedes Jahr einmal dort. Bei manchen Dingen kann man denken dass Personal keine Lust hat, zu arbeiten. Duschbefestigung recht locker, Duschtür wurde schon lange nicht mehr richtig gereinigt oder getauscht, Abflusssieb ebenfalls. Dass die zugigen Fenster in der heutigen Zeit noch so erlaubt sind? Fahrstuhl könnte auch mal richtig gereinigt werden.

This property was fantastic. I was looking for a reasonably priced hotel very near the train station and you can't beat the location of this property. I was warmly greeted by the staff, who even offered a nice hot cup of coffee. The reception area is large, comfortable, and was playing some great music. It's a fun atmosphere. My room was just what I needed, the floor was quiet, and the next day the staff kindly allowed us to store our bags for a few hours so we could explore the Christmas market before our train. I really enjoyed my stay and hope one day to have the chance to return.

Kleinigkeiten beim Services

Ich war im A& O im Rahmen einer Dienstreise. Leider konnte erst um 15:00 Uhr einchecken.Das Zimmer war sauber und in einem guten Zustand. Leider konnte ich den Fernseher nicht benutzen, da ich plötzlich kein Signal mehr hatte. Der Hausmeister oder Servicemitarbeiter,war leider nicht mehr im Hause.Die MitarbeiterInnen* waren sehr freundlich.
