Very friendly staff + funky, innovative room-design

In my room it was a little bit the case of concept over practicality, as the kind-of-cool presence of the open shower, in the middle of the bathroom-area, was fun but meant that after using it, it was impossible to go into the bathroom without getting my feet wet. My friend‘s room was also very nice and funky in its own way, but functional – without the practicality imbroglio.

The breakfast was very good. The bathroom in the media suite was outstanding, although the window into the shower is only partially able to be screened off, which may make some guests uncomfortable (there was an easy view into the upper level of the apartment block opposite)

I think that the design of the media suite room is now tired and dated. The furniture in the lounge area is uncomfortable, and the coverings of the lounging chair felt sticky. I am not really sold on the faux animal hide cover placed on the bed - again it gave the room a cheap, almost dirty vibe.

Location was quite good. Convenient Parking available at additional cost. Room was a decent size.

We booked the double room which was not in the main building. However next building containing a restaurant/kitchen. Up old run down staircase to the room which had a very musty smell. Room was a decent size however the layout for the shower was terrible and showering on wooden decking planks that drain below like an outdoor shower was not favorable and smell was coming up from underneath. Toilet space is tiny even for small built people and like a public toilet open at the bottom and top opposite the bed. Decor not great especially the entry with gothic black and red lights looked more like red light district. The hotel has an apparent 4 star rating however these rooms definitely should not be. Very disappointing and if we didn’t pay for two nights in advance would have left after the first night. Customer service questionable too.

It’s quirky and very well located for central Stuttgart and some lovely restaurants

All was lovely

The welcome and helpfulness of the owner Clean and spacious room Good shower. Lots of restaurants nearby Close to U bahn station

The water tap in the bathroom

Excellent service and treatment received. The restaurant and menu are amazing!!! I will repeat. Very good location.

Close to UBahn, The hotel is charming and rooms have unique themes. We enjoyed the Titanic room, very well done and with a very comfortable waterbed. The staff were friendly, professional and helpful in sharing tips about where to eat and drink. We had an amazing meal at "5" a Michelin star restaurant within a 15 minute walk from the hotel which was arranged. by our host.

The location is remote from the busier and active part of town. Construction of a major highway is nearby and the general area did not meet our expectations or standards.

Unique! Clean and relaxing

Air conditioning was stressed during hot summer days. It was hot in the room.

nice cafe just across street

Outstanding customer service by young lad on reception., We were arriving early for Euro 2024 match and were stressed. However they had room ready early, he helped us park the car in the underground car park and then checked internet for us ref which was the correct fanzone. Room was quirky but lovely (Leela), very comfy bed and lovely shower. Room includes use of a safe. They own the cafe across the street- excellent beakfast (not included). Very central location in stuttgart - easily walkable in under 10 mins. Quiet cul de sac street

Nothing- a real gem to find at one of the busiest times of year after being let down by Air B n B !

Friendly host, great location near town centre. Added bonus is the breakfast brunch place across the road also owned by the same owners. Friendly staff.

Great location right next to tram and cute street.

Expensive food

Breakfast was really good, despite the fact that we had to eat in 1h15min time for it (which was actually enough, but that doesn't help to have a free minded time). Location is close to the city center by feet, very convenient. The shower inside and the bath outside are great!

A dirty towel has been left on the bed on the balcony. Having slippers would be very convenient in this room: as the wooden floor of the bathroom is almost always wet. Limited time for breakfast.

Staff so helpful The room was amazing

I was on the top floor so 60 steps to climb with a heavy bag was hard
