09 February 2012 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Friendly staff. Good breakfast choices. The room shared with my friend was big and warm (it was a twin ensuite). The toilet was clean. And they had an elevator (for us who were lugging heavy luggages).

Disliked: Wifi connection was very bad when we were there and we had to surf the net in the common area, even then it was not really steady (heard from another guest that it was ok before we came).

Liked: Very good location close to both the Hauptbahnhof, the river and the shopping district. Staff was friendly enough and the room was good value for the money. The breakfast is ok, but nothing extraordinary.

Disliked: There is a street just outside, so there is always some traffic noise. The walls are not that thick, so if you have noisy neighbours you are likely to hear them. Every time you leave the hostel you have to leave your key at the reception, but they won't accept any responsibility if something is stolen from your room.

Liked: The location is great, as it is very near the Frankfurt main station. Also, if you will go to franfury hahn airport next day, it will be the best choice for you as the bus stop is just next to it! Besides, the breakfast time is quite early from 6-10, as I take early flight next day, I cam have my breakfast here before I leave. The room is clean.

Disliked: The Internet setting block all the videos access, even YouTube.

Liked: Location right next to main train station, free internet, large enough room with sink, towels and sheets.

Disliked: Very loud all night long, do not know if from other people staying there or from outside, also very warm in room (no AC, no fan). You also have to turn your key in to the desk every time you leave the hotel, but I suppose that is not so bad.

Liked: Close to the main train station.

Disliked: Walking up all the stairs, but it seems to be a Europe thing. Also the windows in the bathroom didn't have a curtain, which isn't helped by the fact that the surrounding buildings are taller

Liked: The wifi was good as was the free breakfast.

Disliked: You had to leave your key at the desk when you leave, but they are not responsible for things stolen from your room. The rooms were clean but very bare with horrible lighting. The restrooms were OK. The hostel didn't feel entirely safe.

Liked: Close to the HBF. That was the best part. The room and the beds were standard. The shared bathrooms were okay.

Disliked: The guy at the reception could not tolerate the fact that a friend of ours was waiting for his train for a few hours at our room. He went to the extent to say "you have five minutes to let him out"
