IntercityHotel Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof Süd
"Nice modern hotel. Big downpoint: The AC is not efficient at all. You can set it to -3 degrees, which should cool the room down by 3K. Unfortunately "cooling" the room down from 30 to 27 does not mean, you can sleep at a decent temperature. So this hotel is a nogo for May-September."
