“This is a fairly standard city hotel; don't expect luxury, but rather a clean, well-located base for exploring Essen. I especially appreciated the free local transport pass, making getting around simple, and the hearty complimentary breakfast, though I didn't try it myself. The hotel sits at a busy intersection and could use a facelift, but the practical amenities and proximity to everything are definite pluses.”
