The Suite Cologne

Vor allem die Parkmöglichkeit direkt vor der Wohnung für 5 Euro pro Tag war wirklich top!

Der Gastgeber war umwerfend responsiv und vor allem extrem entgegenkommend bei unserem Wunsch nach zeitlicher Flexibilisierung des Zugangs. Solche Kundenorientierung erlebe ich in dieser Form selten. Auch sonst stimmte hier für uns alles - dafür also besonderen Dank.

The bed was comfortable and it was well designed.

There was a loud gym next to it. Hence you will be woken up around 9-10am if you want to sleep late

The decor and comfort of the place is unmatched, and the bathroom was so special and well thought out in terms of design it made the stay quite unique really. Already missing the bed honestly (so comfy!)!

The main door in and out of the building was the biggest problem for me and I didn't really even figure it out until the last day of my stay, perhaps the instructions just have to be clearer in terms of access? Besides that I should probably mention the fact that a music classroom/academy being next doors might be a problem for some people as the walls really aren't soundproof at all. Was quite hard to get used to on day one but you get used to it after a while.

the apartment was very clean.

The bed was only for one person while i traveled there with my daughter (13 years old). I almost could not sleep there.

For my purposes, the location was fine, with quick access to the tram and train services and a short ride to the convention centre and downtown. The room itself was tidy and spacious for the most part and communication with the owner was quick. It is not an uncomfortable experience. Because there is no check-in/out process apart from leaving the keys into a safety box, you at least can enter and leave relatively quickly, which does make thing easier. The room has a decent sized desk for work and an roomy, though not very comfortable bed.

Despite outward appearances, this is not a hotel or anything of the sort. It’s basically an Airbnb, located in a half office/half apartment building. The unit itself is an apartment that’s apparently split into two. The entrance is to a common room hall from where you enter the rented room. There is no air conditioning, though the owner’s friend (the owner wasn’t not present nor was there any check-in process) brought a fan for the room when enquired about the situation. There is a kitchen, but also instructions not to wash any dishes while you’re there. The mini-fridge is warm and as such useless. Because there is no AC, it is pointless to use the stove. The bathroom has a musty, dank smell, and because there is no proper ventilation it takes ages for the moisture to evaporate. There is a dance academy located right next door and the walls are paper thin. If you’re doing any work on the trip, prepare for a lot of noise until fairly late.

perfect location if you need to reach Messe. comfortable check-in and communication. enough space for single 1-2 day travel.

kitchen place very tiny, a bit noisy from the music school nearby
