I really don't understand how this hotel got such high reviews on other sites, but this was far…read morefrom what I was anticipating. This should only be a one night hotel stay, if you have to, for the sheer convenience of transportation to and from the Frankfurt train station. This was laughable, to say the least.
The area here is pretty sketchy; there's nothing amazing about it, besides the awesome gyro place across the street. Looks are truly deceiving with this hotel.
We checked in pretty seamlessly, and had already paid in full prior to arrival. We were offered the breakfast at 7AM, but were heading to the airport at 5:30AM for a 8:15AM flight back to NYC. We were given our key card for room 602. We went up into the elevator, and when we approached the room, the hallway automatically lit up with neon lights, like a club. Strange, but okay. Things get strange when we get into the room. Being on the 6th floor was really noisy; we heard all the street traffic perfectly. So much for a quiet room.
The room has an awkward layout. You walk in, and immediately to your right, is the bathroom, but the bathroom has a frosted glass wall that you can look into the bedroom with! What?! Why?! You can't actually see the person standing in the shower naked, but you can see their feet. Oh! The bathroom floor was absolutely disgusting, with mold and mildew from God knows how long ago. We stood on towels to take our showers before we flew home; it was a necessary measure that's for sure!
The worst of it all, was the broken bed. The bed is divided into two full size beds, but my husband's side was broken. We lifted the mattress up together, and saw that the wooden plank that they used to support the mattress was not in securely and bolted down. It was like a see-saw! My husband had to sleep diagonally or he would've fallen into the bed - literally.
This whole place needs to be renovated!
