Ladder was broken
My experience was really bad here. As I climbed up to go on the bunk bed, the ladder broke and hit me. Therefore, I had to use extreme measures to get up and back down. When I complained the next morning, the staff were very unhelpful, they didn't seem to care and just told me to leave, as I was leaving that day.

There is not 24/7 front desk help; however, the electronic check-in was very easy to do. The showers and bathrooms are separate and down the hall. There was a sink in the room which was nice for getting ready and brushing teeth etc. There was a tv in the room and a small counter and chair. There was no hairdryer. The beds were not the most comfortable (thin mattresses). There was no elevator inside, so we had to carry our luggage up and down the stairs. It was about 10-15 minute walk to the subway access.

Uncomfortable sleep but good vaue given situation.
Messe in Dusseldorf made hotels very expensive, so had to take this hotel because of the price. Small room: double bed takes up most of the space. Good pillows. No American TV channels. Shared bathroom and shower is a bother, but knew that when I rented it. No A/C or fan; very hot, even with taking out the blanket that they put in between the sheets, as couldn't keep window open for cooling because of traffic noise. Found a parking space even though I came late at night. Easy self-service check-in. Would be a better deal when it is not so hot.

Cheap and basic
this hotel is cheap, the rooms are seriously basic with toilets and showers out in the corridor. It is reasonably clean. But you get what you pay for and this place was the cheapest I could find. I wold use it again if required.

Amazed it had windows
Greeted into the hotel by a robot, several of our groups rooms had been cancelled on the day. Nevertheless we persevered into the abyss (which is how this hotel shall be described from now on). The hotel is off clean - the walls were dirty but the cleaners who enjoyed hoovering at 7am made sure that the floor was clean outside your room, on occasion ignoring the do not disturb sign to pop in for a quick chat. However they may as well have come down from the heavens in a blinding light for that was the effect when they opened the door to then immediately apologies. The communal showers smelled pretty bad, water didn't drain away, the shower doors could be opened from the outside with a coin. Towels were too small to actually dry you never mind cover any part of you - very glad i brought my own.

The hotel was fine for its purpose, which was a place to sleep for the night, just off the autobahn network. It should be noted that staff presence is limited 17:00-22:00 pm and something like 07:00-10:00 am. At other times entry is via an automat and you need a Visa/MasterCard credit card. I may have given the hotel a low rating, but it didn't cost a lot either so it is a value choice.

Good for a short stay
When driving to Braunschweig we needed to stay one night during my journey. So, it is placed somehow close to the highway and sounds good for our case. Generally, the hotel was good wrt the price.

It was clean and reasonably priced-mainly what we wanted. Some of the down sides were only one pillow per person and only one very small towel per person. I would recommend bringing your own of both if this matters to you. Otherwise hotel staff was very friendly.

Most stressful stay ever
Went for shower in morning 06:30 , when I returned to room the door locking mechanism didnt work. Went to reception and person on duty was dismissive and busy with breakfast. Eventually came and tried to open door with no success. After much thought decided to call a maintenance person who would take 20 minutes to arrive. I sat in reception in Pyjamis...after an hour maintenance hadnt arrived, person on duty tried again and was able to access. I was late for important customer meeting and severley stressed as had got up early to prepare however laptop, phone etc was locked in room. I checked out immediately and would not recommend this hotel, sorry.

Easy to get to, extremely clean. Stayed one night
I attended a Borussia Dortmund match, and as the entire city basically sells out, I found the next best thing in Bochum. Priced extremely well, it was cheaper than a hostel for much nicer amenities. Trains leave from Dortmund to Bochum every 10 minutes or so, so took a train to Bochum Hbf, then the u-bahn to Reinsingstrasse. Total trip takes about 30-40 minutes depending on waiting time, but you exit a five minute walk from the hotel. Checked in with the automatic check in machine as reception only works in early morning and evening, but had no problems. Bathrooms and room were clean, unfortunately didn't try out the shower. Beds were comfy. Would be my first choice if I went back in the area

Das Personal ist freundlich und das Zimmer war sauber. Alles Notwendige für eine Übernachtung war vorhanden. Negativ aufgefallen ist mir, dass es nur in einem der WC-Räume im 1. Stock einen Mülleimer gab. Auch in den Duschräumen gab es keine Mülleimer. Außerdem wurden die Sanitärräume eher oberflächlich als gründlich gereinigt.

Stedet er ok, Hvis man skal hurtig videre, man skal bare kunne finde sig i de beskidte toiletter og baderum ude på gangen, prisen er 10-15€ For meget selvom hotellet virker ret billigt.
