Cosy little hotel located in an idyllic neighbourhood close to nature, with some open fields you can explore nearby, but also close enough to a tram station so you can get to Cologne in less than 30 minutes. The room I got had an outdoor area with a bench and a table to chill at. Late check in is available in the form of retrieving key to your room from the lockbox outside the main entrance (the one with the brochures). Check your mobile or bookings.com app for instructions to collect the key. The owner speaks English and is super nice. Great breakfast too. The owner even gave me a pair of crutches when she found out I had a leg injury prior to arrival.

No fridge in the room. If you have medications or other items that require refrigeration, be sure to talk to the hotel team when booking; The hotel is only staffed during the morning hours it seems, and some of the staff members only speak German while others only speak English so it gets confusing sometimes; Make sure your mobile works prior to arrival, as the hotel might send you check-in instructions via text messages in the event that bookings.com messaging stops working which happens sometimes. I missed mine because my mobile roaming service wasn't working.

I never give 10 points because I believe there is always room to improve, but this place amazed me. From the size of the room up to the comfort inside, the hotel is fantastic. Thank you to the host, a wonderful lady who prepared a fantastic breakfast too. It is perfect for a couple who want to stay in a familiar environment with easy access to the rest of the city.

There is nothing negative to say! Maybe I can say it is a little far from the train stop, around 700 meters, but the area is so beautiful that it is suitable for a walk.

Very nice, spacious apartment. All the little things like slippers, shampoo, coffee/tea were there. The check-in process was the easiest possible: you open a locker with a code and get your key card. Delicious breakfast, with good variety of food to choose from. Fast wifi, suitable for remote work.

The parking lot was a bit crowded, we didn't get a spot and had to park on the street nearby. Luckily street parking is free there.

The outdoor patio, it was very clean, very comfortable, fresh water, very nice location in the middle of nature in a suburban area, lots of facilities including drinking water, coffee and a the possibility to buy other stuff from the hotel, a nice outdoor area with a fountain and sunbeds. Very good breakfast and friendly staff.

Nothing

Everything was perfect; great location in nature. Quiet and calm area. The property is very well maintained and clean, they worked on every detail. The breakfast is very good, the staff and host are very nice and helpful. One of the best places we have stayed, for this type of hotel.

Everything was perfect.

The hotel is in an fantastic location, quiet and yet within a very short distance from the Koelnmesse (15 mins by car). It is kept immaculately clean. The owner is great. Nothing is too much trouble and she has a lovely sense of humour. When I next come to Koeln, I will definitely stay here again.

Lovely place, extremely helpful hosts and staff. Large space, albeit split level. Quiet neighborhood.

For the size and price, I would have expected a refrigerator. Very easy to bump one's head getting into bed under sloping ceiling. Location in a quiet neighborhood was nice, but I did not expect to be so far from stores and restaurants (not really a complaint).

Incredibly tasty breakfast. Loved the cream cheese and the crispy bread. The barn with the horses is an added bonus. It was perfect one night stay with a toddler.

Just everything

Very nice quiet hotel. Newly refubrished, very clean and tidy. Easy contactless check in. Very friendly staff. Freshly cooked breakfast. Highly recommended.
