This hotel is a bit out of the way and it's a bit of a walk (10 minutes or so) to trams or U/S-bahn stations, but there are buses closer. It didn't take more than 35 minutes or so to get to the city center using public transportation, which isn't too bad. However, I would recommend using a car or taxi if you are not able to walk at least 10 minutes or if the weather is very cold. Especially since there doesn't seem to be a whole lot nearby. The hallways had stained carpet, but inside the room it was perfectly clean. It seems silly that they don't replace the carpet in the hallways, which would make the hotel look/feel much cleaner. At least in the room was clean. The decor was a little dated, and it was frustrating that there weren't more electrical sockets. However, for the price, this was a perfectly acceptable hotel.
