After checkin we found that the room phone was dead. The recepionist guy cam and checked and said that he will send a technician to fix it. But he never came and they did not update us anything on that. Hence for each question, I had to come down to the ground floor to clarify any question.

Enjoyed the stay very much. We could not control the temperature in the room. It was too warm for sleeping. The breakfast however was excellent. There was no forewarning about a fee for parking. It was easy access to autobahns and airport. I would stay here again. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Terrible. Do no be fooled by the Expedia map This hotel is not near the train station. It is a 30 min walk away in the opposite direct of the town center. There is "nothing" around it for 20 min except one pizza place. There is not even a store. There is no laundry facilities nor laundry service as promised by Expedia, nor is there one nearby as promised by the hotel. There is one bus which may or may not arrive so be prepared to take taxis to the train station or anywhere else. This hotel is desolate and the worst location in Frankfurt. The staff were not helpful and gave out bad information.

Dear Edward,we are very sorry to hear that your stay didn't go as planned. It's correct that we are 20 minutes walking distance away from the train station. The hotel is reachable with the bus line 37 or by cab.The bus is driving every 10-15 minutes in both directions.We also offer a laundry service from Monday to Friday. The laundry has to be at the reception before 8 am and will be back in the evening at the same day. We are very sorry that there was a misunderstanding during your stay.We understand that you are upset and hopefully you can give us a second chance to show our real standards.We are looking forward to welcome you back as a guest!Best regards

I hope this feedback is actioned upon!
I stayed in the property for one night and was pretty comfortable. The hotel is well kept and the rooms decently sized. While I have no complaints about the room in general, I will probably think twice to stay here again due to the bad staff (reception guys) attitude! As mentioned, the service, especially from the members in the front desk (reception) was terrible. They were not helpful to guide me to get to the property from the train station, mocked at me in front of the other guests by saying, 'it is so easy to get to the hotel, but some people just don't get it'. The following day, the key to the hotel room did not work and I had to run to the reception at least three times, instead of the guy at the reception offering to come up and help! The breakfast spread was decent with breads and spreads included. Please consider including more vegan options.

There was parking onsite, albeit for a fee. Breakfast is included and it is a fantastic breakfast buffet!! The location is in an industrial part of town with nothing close by; no shopping, no restaurants, literally nothing. Also, unfortunately, the brand new 500,000 Euro air conditioning system wasn't working properly, so the kind clerk at the desk gave us a fan, without which we wouldn't have been able to sleep in our 25 degrees room. Speaking of the room, it is quite small, especially with the sleeper sofa folded out, which was terribly uncomfortable to sleep on, according to my kids. And I believe them, just from looking at the sleeper sofa. If you only have 2 people who can use the actual bed (which was comfortable) and if the A/C is up and running properly, I would say the hotel is quite nice, except again there is nothing close by, not even within a 2-mile radius.

This is a good place for families. The breakfast was bustling with young families in the morning. Very attentive, efficient and friendly staff, eager to assist restocking food items and cleaning tables, etc. My only concerns would be it’s a bit far away from anything, in an industrial area, so you need to take transit to go out to eat or to the store. Our second bed in our room was a sofa bed that sagged a bit, so it wasn’t very comfortable. I would try to get two double beds next time if that is possible.

In the 4 times we've stayed at this hotel, the bathroom sinks always appeared to be blocked. This time was no exception. There are paint stains on the carpet outside room 215 and the general decor needs refreshing. The staff are very polite and helpful. There are great parking facilities and it's a short drive to the city centre. The hotel is situated in an industrial sector or the city, which is fairly quiet except for passing traffic. Wise to ask for a room at the back. Good breakfast and all in all good value for an overnight stop.

Fair price, easy parking but a little much €18 per day. The description had 9 min to train station but bridge was out so 34 min walk with detour. Apparently this bridge under construction for two years and description wasnt updated. There was a bus but limited on weekends so we ended up driving and paying for parking again. But that was really only negative thing i can say. We routinely stay at Holiday Inn and will continue to do so in the future
