Guest Reviews
- Sabrina (8/5): -
- Lennart (9/5): - Very friendly and helpful staff!
- Thomas (6/5): - Zentrale Lager,, Praktisch kein Personal sichtbar. Rezeption am Nachmittag mit nur einer Person besetzt, die auch noch die Bar betreiben muss.
Frühstück OK, Zimmer sehr klein. Nur ein Fenster mit Jalousie. Nachmittags heizt sich das Zimmer auf.
Sehr günstig ist es, aber auch nüchtern.
- Heike (8/5): -
- Dominique (6/5): - l'équipement de la chambre; pas de table ni chaise
- Andrew (8/5): Wonderful facility, but kind of difficult to sleep. - The room was clean. Location was convenient to the train station. Staff was friendly and helpful. Beds were comfortable. Showers were perfect. Also liked that the toilet was in a separate room from the shower. The curtains in the room were not sufficient to cover all of the windows. Also the trains themselves were not a bother, but the train station noises (bells, etc.) kept us awake until late in the night.
- Damjan (9/5): -
- Jean-Pierre (4/5): -
- Lukas (7/5): -
- Linda (9/5): A&O hostel Aachen - The hostel was in a great location, both for the train station and also for getting into the old town/city centre.
Beds were comfortable and everything was very clean. Everything was fine really. Only thing was that the guest kitchen wasn't really worth having. We did go down to make drinks but most of the cupboards were locked and the room itself was small and cramped.
But not worth worrying about this as the hostel is great! :)
- Elina (7/5): -
- S. Leu (7/5): -
- BERYA (9/5): - It is next to central train station and very close to city centre. The staff is very polite and friendly. The breakfast was sufficient and the room was comfortable for short stays
- Konstantin (10/5): -
- In Lei (8/5): - Good location and clean The price is a little bit expensive and the room is small.
- Chongin (10/5): - Friends staffs, clean room, great & convenient guest kitchen N/A
- Uwe (6/5): -
- Thomas (9/5): - super Lage, sehr freundliches Personal, Frühstück könnte um Rührei und Brötchenauswahl erweitert werden zu wenig Kleiderbügel (nur 2 Stck.)
- Chongin (10/5): - Friendly staffs, great&clean guest kitchen Nothing
- Aerts (7/5): -
- Andrin Tema (9/5): - all was good room is a bit small and no proper table in it
- Anneke (8/5): - Proactief personeel. Meldde dat ontbijt druk zou zijn en adviseerde wat later te komen. Schoon, netjes.
Ligging tov binnenstad goed.
- Mathieu (10/5): Je voelt je hier welkom in een prima schoon en comfortabel hostel - De fantastische klantvriendelijkheid van het personeel achter de receptie.
En de gezellige loungeruimte. Nvt
- claude (10/5): - Accueil ras Ras
- Julien (9/5): - L’accueil au top, peur pour la barrière de la langue étant donné qu on parle uniquement le français et au petit déjeuner comme à la réception, les 2 personnes parlaient parfaitement le français
- Koshelev (9/5): -
- Nedzad (8/5): -
- Winny (8/5): - We are satisfied with the fast response of the reception. The light in our room was very weak and it was really dark at night. After telling this to the receptionist, we received a new room without any problem. Thank you for that! Our room was also clean.
- Bianca (8/5): Great value, all we needed for a weekend in Aachen - Serviced Luggage room with number system was super cool and felt very safe to leave things for the day. Staff was super nice too, check in was easy. The air was a little stuffy
- Dzendzyk (10/5): -
- Thomas (5/5): -
- Robin Sprengel (1/5): Das war echt schlimm - Nichts, höchstens die zentrale Lage - sehr dreckig
- stinkt widerlich überall, insb. im Zimmer
- beim Check-in wird noch eine extra Touristensteuer berechnet
- Gäste werden nicht geprüft. Unter meinem Bett lag eine alkoholisierte Person (wahrscheinlich obdachlos). Habe mich nicht sicher gefühlt und die Nacht im Auto verbracht
- E-Mail geschrieben mit der Bitte um Rückerstattung - natürlich keine Antwort
Fazit: Absoluter Saustall, niemandem zu empfehlen
- Mariko (8/5): -
- Olivier (9/5): ROAD-TRIP MOTO ENTRE AMIS - Chambre confortable, propre et calme, personnels accueillants et sympathique, des distributeurs et un bar dans l'entrée, très bon petit-déjeuner. Bien situé à environ 10mn du centre et de la Cathédrale. R.A.S.
- Zahraa Ahmed (6/5): - The train station is easily reachable only 2min walk from the hotel. The staff were very nice. There is also a guest kitchen. The breakfeast could have a little more varitey but it was okay. The room floor was for some reason sticky and the place had too much dust on the cabinets.
It was very loud you hear the trains passing 24/7.
And there is no heater or any type of air conditioner. The room was quiet old for the price one pays on average the place could use some renouvations. Also the elevator looks scary and old.
- Christian (8/5): Bonne solution pour séjourner une nuit avant de prendre le train à la gare toute proche. - Simplicité et efficacité des infrastructures
- Mohamed (5/5): Not as I expected - Location is great, near to central station. The bathroom in the room didn't have ventilation. The mattresses weren't comfortable at all. I didn't find my small own towel as well, not sure if one of the roommates took
it or the house keeping thought it is belonging to someone who left the room.
- Dariusz (8/5): -
- Dzeno (4/5): - bezahlen in der Unterkunft nur mit Karte..hat ja nicht jeder ! Cash ging nicht
- M (4/5): -
- Marianne (8/5): - Zentrale Lage, Preis-Leistungsverhältnis Lautstärke;
Betten
- Ida S. (8/5): A nice hotel for a short family stay - The location is excellent, just a 2-minute walk from the train station. If you’re arriving by car, it’s recommended to reserve a parking spot in advance. The city center is also relatively within walking distance. The room is suitable for a family of four, and the price is reasonable for the facilities provided. The location is great because it’s close to the train station. However, keep in mind that the noise from the trains can be disturbing, as they run throughout the day and night, including very early in the morning.
- Hans Jørgen (6/5): -
- PETER (9/5): CONVENIENTLY CLOSE TO AACHEN RAILWAY STATION - This property is very conveniently located only 120 metres from the entrance to Aachen Hbf. My room on the 5th floor was comfortable and clean and I had an unbroken sleep the two nights I was here. The young man who checked me in was very pleasant and friendly. No issue.
- C. Petri (8/5): Für späteren/ spontan check-in perfekt! - Reibungslosen check in am Mitternacht, Hunde freundlichen Hotel, Lage ist zentral.
- Bernd (6/5): Einfach aber in ortnung - Einfach aber in ortnung! Sauberkeit
- Frank Baum (7/5): Simpel, günstig, pragmatisch - Nah am HBF gelegen. Personal war sehr angenehm und zuvorkommend. Eine sehr simple Ausstattung. Man merkt dem Gebäude den alten Büro Charme an.
- Jie (5/5): -
- Antonio (4/5): Zu schlecht auch für das gute Preis-Leistung Verhältnis. - Unter dem Hostel ist nun ein „Lokal“ voller Linken Autonomen die auf der Straße trinken.
Im Doppelzimmer kann man kaum um das Bett herum gehen.
Von drei Fenstern, 1 war so undicht dass der Lärm von der Straße praktisch ungedämmt rein kam. An der Duschkabine Tür Kaputt.
War mein 2. Versuch… nie wieder
- Jule (4/5): Nie wieder - nicht zu empfehlen. - Lage sehr gut,
Bett war gut
alles andere mittel bis schlecht. Kaffee dünn, Frühstück dürftig,
Zimmer laut, Fenster undicht, muffiger Geruch im Zimmer, Handtücher hatten seltsamen Geruch, als wären sie nicht frisch.
Es wirkte alles etwas heruntergekommen und der Preis ist nicht angemessen.
- Elvira (10/5): -
- Brigitte (8/5): - Sehr freundlich Ist ein Hostel,viele junge Leute während des Frühstücks hoher Geräuschpegel.
- Александр (9/5): -
- Xenia (7/5): -
- Jacques (10/5): Super - Sehr freundlicher Empfang. Ein makelloses Zimmer. Die Aufzüge sind definitiv ein Pluspunkt. Vielen Dank.
- Anke (7/5): -
- Daniel (7/5): - Personeel Ontbijt
- Olena (10/5): Top Lage & Komfort - Das Hotel hat eine ausgezeichnete Lage in der Nähe des Bahnhofs. Sehr praktisch ist die Lobby im Erdgeschoss, wo sich ein Café, Tische zum Arbeiten am Computer sowie Automaten für Getränke (eine Art E-Kiosk) befinden. Das ist besonders bequem, wenn man ein Bett in einem Mehrbettzimmer gebucht hat.
- Silvia (9/5): -
- Neugebauer (10/5): -
- Kateryna (7/5): I've booked it in 2 days before coming, so the price 39€/n for 1 bed in 4-bed room was acceptable - location is comfortable, easy to find and check in, coffe machine is on the reception no reading lamp near the bed
- Daniel (8/5): -
- DIEM (10/5): Tôi rất hài lòng -
- Oliver (6/5): -
- Nicolas (8/5): -
- monica d'orazio (10/5): - Struttura accogliente,pulita,buon rapporto qualità - prezzo,utilizzata ampia stanza doppia con bagno privato uso esclusivo.Esperienza positiva Posizione vicinissima alla stazione ferroviaria Se devo necessariamente trovare qualcosa,i cuscini non troppo comodi,ma dipende da come si è abituati....in Germania ho trovato solo cuscini molto soffici.
- Benjamin (7/5): -
- Torsten (8/5): -
- Bilalli (5/5): - It was near a train station it is clean staff was very good i was at so many hostels before but this one was so small the bed are small the room is soo small you cant move there is so hard to stay there i was at so many hostels in europe but not like this but everything else was so nice
- André (7/5): -
- Doroteja (10/5): Odlican smjestaj za cijenu - Sve je bilo super- lokacija,sadrzaji,ljubazno osoblje,prostor za prtljagu… Nemam prigovora vidimo se opet!
- Jörg (8/5): -
- Marian (7/5): Met oordoppen in zou je 1 nacht kunnen doorbrengen. - Voor 1 nacht ff goedkoop Helaas doe je geen oog dicht s nachts vanwege de enorme hoeveelheid treinen die bijna door je kamer heen komen. Ik wist dat het hostel aan het station lag, maar deze herrie 24 uur lang… Het was een waanzinnige ervaring.
- Денис (4/5): - Цена Если вы выйдете из номера при выселении и забудете что то , то вернувшись даже через 10 минут вы имеете большие шансы лишиться своих вещей.
- Jan (9/5): Gut für eine Nacht - Check In Personal, Aufzug —
- Joan Maria (8/5): Situació, barat i net - Excel·lent ubicació a tocar de l'estació de tren i prop del centre. Això la feia ideal. Les instal·lacion en general són netes i també té bones vistes des de les plantes altes especialment de la pròpia estació de tren. Et donen la roba de llit a la mateixa recepció. És normal en Hostels que et facis tu el llit però a la primera nit ja podria estar fet perquè si et toca en llitera superior i tenint en compte com és el moble del llit, fàcil no és.
- Anne (7/5): Slechte nachten gehad maar het was een fijne accommodatie - Bed lag prima, faciliteiten waren prima, locatie was fijn Mede kamergenoten die nogal veel lawaai maakte ‘s nachts en ‘s ochtends. Waardoor ik geen goede nachtrust had. Daarnaast was er een een grote groep kinderen waardoor het soms in de lawaai erg veel lawaai was. Kussen was aan de dunne kant
- Chi-Wai Michael (9/5): -
- Mongkol (9/5): - Super nice staff 😊
- Tom (7/5): Im Großen und Ganzen gut *) - Das Hotel ist nahe dem Hauptbahnhof, somit ideal für Zuganreiser. Die Zimmer sind gut und ansprechend ausgestattet,,je nach Etage in der man wohnt, ist es nachts ruhiger um zu schlafen "! Handtücher werden gestellt, auf Wunsch kann man auch eine kostenlose tägliche Zusatz Zimmer Reinigung buchen. Im 5. Stock ist die Aussicht zur Stadt ein absolutes Gadget. Das Frühstück ist international gehalten,,aber weniger auf zum Beispiel Veganer ausgestattet "..wobei es Äpfel oder Müslis im Angebot gibt. Besonders witzig ist der Pancake Automat, der schon ein Gadget ist. Ebenso hat man, zum ganztägig selbst kochen eine eindeutige gut ausgestattet self cooking kitchen im Untergeschoss. Aachen ist allgemein eine sehenswert stadt die ein Besuch/ Wochenende Trip lohnt. Von Dom bis Shoppingcenter, City ,,bist hin zu Café & Theater Besuch" mein Tipp = GrenzlandTheater!*) Der QRCode zur Zimmer Reinigung, welcher im Zimmer ist, hat nicht funktioniert. Das Anmelden an der Rezeption war möglich. Leider wurde es bis nachmittags versäumt zu reinigen, aber auf 2. Nachfrage hin kam ein Mitarbeiter ca. 15 Uhr dann doch.
- Oscar (8/5): prijs overnachting en heel dichtbij hauptbahnhof Aken -
- Martin (9/5): - Friendly and attentive staff.
Relaxed atmosphere.Eady access to public transport. Nothing.
- Franck THOUMELIN (6/5): Chambre à prix modéré pour qui n'est pas trop exigeant. - La situation à proximité du centre-ville.
Le super accueil à notre arrivée et à notre départ. (Merci à Markus!)
Petit-déjeuner à volonté de qualité moyenne mais ça passe.
Confort spartiate mais bonne literie, bons sanitaires et bonne propreté.
Je recommande quand même pour ces quelques points positifs évoqués. Chambre située au 5ème étage côté rails de la gare toute proche: du bruit ferroviaire même la nuit!
Principe de l'auberge de jeunesse avec des adolescents qui crient dans les couloirs et claquent les portes.
Manque de porte-manteaux ou de crochets: il n'y en avait aucun.
Parking annoncé à 12€ auquel j'ai dû rajouter 7,5€ de taxe: ce qui n'était pas indiqué sur Booking dès le début ni dans ma demande faite préalablement à l'établissement. Ça fait cher la tranquillité de stationnement!
Manque de fruits frais au petit-déjeuner.
- angelo9873 (10/5): - Emplacement Rien
- Christian (7/5): - Location nearby the station.
Possibility to put our bikes safely for the night.
Good quality for the money.
Nice rooms on the 5th floor, recently refurbished. Check'in procedure (mandatory via internet, hopefully not working!)
- Heidi (5/5): - Beleefd personeel *Vreselijke geur bij het betreden van de kamer
* hoofdkussens van lage kwaliteit
* geen ruimte op kamer om spullen op te bergen, geen kastje/lokker
* gordijntjes aan bed zouden aangenaam zijn
