    It's a very old hotel, but it's clean. It's not a big deal, but it gets hot in the summer. I rented a fan. There were no screens on the windows, but since I was on the sixth floor, no mosquitoes got in. I was allowed to store my bicycle in the garage.

    Great accommodation, easy to find, easy to get into building, and staff were a phonecall away via booking.com (manned 24/7 but briefly time for staff to pop upstairs). Friendly staff, very kind and helpful, and a welcoming smile. Lift up works well. Room is actually lovely and better than expected. Superb view! Comfortable beds. Nice shower. Breakfast was super. Juice, coffee, bread and jam/butter, and then a choice of various savory or sweet (we had French toast with fruit), for 7.50 euros, book the night before. Worth having. Helpful recommendations for nice restaurant nearby. There's also a lidl and little stall outside with bakery goods. Bag storage also available which was great. Many thanks

    Beds could have been more comfortable and few more kitchen items in the kitchen such as glasses, cups, cutlery, bottle openers.

    Simple, clean and functional. Also, the hotel is positioned in the centre of town with less than 10min walk to the train station .

    It's a normal decent hotel with minimalist requiements to sleep over if you must be in this city for some unfortunate reason. The building/furniture is aged but functional and clean. Office ceilings, basic gray carpet, bed. An unplugged old empty mini fridge and old tv to kill time if you can't fall asleep. The prices are fair however, and the reception is nice and present 24/7. You can buy various junk food and alcohol in a big vending machine near the reception. Location close to the train station/city. An ideal place for a sleepover if you just don't care where you sleep and want to stay on a budget.

    The onsite restaurant was only open for breakfast.

    I really liked having the extra space and facilities that came with the apartment. At first I thought the apartment was old fashioned but the then it became clear that it had been modernised in a way sympathetic with the era of the building. Breakfast was really excellent.

    Hotter days did become uncomfortable, but they were few.

    Staying in a room with a kitchenette, I made my own breakfast (Lidl a 5 min walk away). The bed was ok, though might be a little hard for some people. Wifi signal was excellent, could work like at home. The hotel is not new, but surfaces are all clean and well maintained. Toilet and shower very good. The top floor apartment did get hot during the day, but cooled down quickly for the night when having windows open. If planning to stay during a hot day, might need a fan. Overall very good value for the money and expectations, can recommend.

    No restaurant on the weekend. Curfew at 22-06, which got us into stressful situation about the return from the trip. Quite old and shaky elevator.

    Beds were really nice. The staff was above friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean. The hotel was really quiet and easy to rest in.

    On the downside: We genuinely expected the hotel to have a working restaurant. For us, a restaurant means the convenience of a morning coffee, lunch, or dinner without having to search the city for food. If there’s no restaurant, one would at least expect a kettle in the room to make an instant coffee. Another big drawback (which may not matter to everyone, but was important for us) is that there is absolutely no option to smoke anywhere inside. The only way is to take the lift down seven floors, ask the receptionist to unlock the main doors, and smoke on the street. I understand that during the socialist period, smoking was likely allowed everywhere, so the hotel was not built with balconies or terraces. The old restaurant probably even had a smoking section. Perhaps, just perhaps, a small part of the restaurant’s terrace on the first floor could be reopened as a designated smoking area.

    I’m honestly not quite sure what to say about Hotel Bothe — my experience was very mixed. I know this hotel dates back to the socialist era, and at that time, it was probably considered a very good establishment: large rooms, spacious lounges on each floor, and a main lounge at the reception area. There is clearly a large restaurant on the first floor with a terrace, but it appears to have been out of use for quite a long time. From the main street, a wide staircase leads up to the first floor — it must have once been the main entrance to the restaurant — but it is now closed off with a metal fence. I’m fairly certain the original reception used to be located at the prominent corner near these staircases. That part of the ground floor is now rented (or perhaps sold) to a bank. The current “reception” entrance appears to be what was once a service entrance used by employees during the hotel’s better days. Still, there is always someone at the desk, ready to assist. Breakfast is available, but we didn’t try it, as we usually don’t eat in the morning. On the positive side: The receptionists are very kind, though most of them do not speak English or German. The rooms are spacious, with nice furniture, comfortable beds, high ceilings, and renovated bathrooms. We were also given free garage space for our motorcycles, which we greatly appreciated. All guest rooms are located on the 6th or 7th floor, and there is an old but functional elevator

    It was hot in the top apartment, but we asked for fan at reception and it was much better and cooler then, but it was over 30deg outside in June.

    Beds are comfy, staff was very nice, clean bathroom and room. We stayed in the hotel before with kid and all was good. It was quite in the room and we didn't hear much noise from the hall, even hotel was probably fully booked.
