Every time I travel to Germany, I am once again reminded of the literal nature of the German people. In Germany, a single room very often is just what it says on the reservation slip: a room for one person with a single bed.

This often catches me out - since I prefer a room with a double bed - and I presume that this unique feature of the German Hotel comes also as a surprise to other people - particularly those from the US - where the 'single' bed has been extinct as a concept for years.

So the bed is small if you book a single room. The TV is small too, though you probably won't be watching much TV since the channels are all in German.

The room also had a fitted kitchen, which was locked off, and which I presume is only available to those paying the apratment rates. Internet is provided as an optional extra, a bit expensive, which was slightly anoying.

One point regarding the carpark: its entrance is around the back of the hotel on the adjacent street but you have to check in in order to access the direct lift. So I guess the only procedure is to park in the carpark, walk to the check-in counter via the street, and then go back to the car-park via the lift to collect your bags - it's a bit convoluted.

Aside from the above this hotel was fine - the location was very good for seeing the sights around Ulm. Everythign is within easy walking distance. Getting in and out of the carpark was easy after check-in had been completed. The breakfast was very good, and the rooms were very clean.

I'd recommend this hotel to anyone looking for decent affordable accommodation in Ulm. Just don't expect a large bed!

This hotel is quite nice.
What I really liked the most is the location.
Near the market and center located.

The staffs were polite and relative friendly.

Breakfast was just so so ...

The worst part was the WLAN internet service.
They didn't provide cable LAN internet, instead you need to buy WLAN password for extra. The WLAN signal quality in my room was very poor. I could hardly access any website. I did complain to the receptionist but they could do nothing and told me to use the WLAN in hotel lobby. Well, not a good option for me for sure, since I prefer to work from my room.

They didn't provide laundry service, instead they provide wash salon in the basement. You can use the wash machine by inserting coins.

Summary: this hotel is OK for business traveler.

This hotel is o.k. if you are on a trip in Germany or as a stop on the road. It's location is perfect, near the city center, the rooms are large and they offer parking space at a reduced rate. On the other hand it is a place without any character, a bit dull and dark and the furniture is rather basic. O.K. for a short, but not for an extended stay.

Someone recommended this hotel to us and with two small children, we jumped at the chance to have an apartment for 5 nights. The apartment was fantastic, it was huge, with lots of windows, a big kitchen with table and chairs, large living room with pull out couch and the big bedroom for us. Two bathrooms was a big plus too. We were able to do our own laundry downstairs and the hotel was within walking distance of the city. The breakfast room is beautiful and the food choices extensive. I would highly recommend the apartments in this hotel - especially to those traveling with children..
