Locality about 15 min from central the railway station or 10 downtown. Tram stop is 1 min from Hotel. Very comfortable. Very clean room. Without crew but everything was troubleless. Great choice.

You need to be very careful with your stuff.
Has the room service attendant stole from my room and tried getting across to their customer care and nothing was done about it till i checked out.
Won't recommend for anyone to stay here.

The self-service concept is fantastic, and the location for public transport is perfect.
My only concern was that the elevator was out of order over the weekend, which made it a bit challenging to carry my luggage down when I checked out.

It was good. The PIN code given to us initially was wrong and that was frustrating as we couldn’t get into the room. Thank god it was still working hours so we contacted the staff on telephone after a wait of 10minutes and got a new code immediately. Altogether it was a good place for the price.

I loved how accesible and clean the property was, the option of having no check in desk is quite smart and avoids a long time of waiting and standing around, only complaints would be that i got two single bed and the blinds were rather difficult to work but for 33 GBP cant find yourself a better bargain than this.

Für Business Reisende stets die ruhige Seite!
Das Zimmer zum Parkplatz war sehr laut, da Jugendliche die ganze Nacht laut waren. Beim nächsten mal wünsche ich mir ein Zimmer zur anderen Seite.

Wonderfully simple room and value for money during the Euros. Shutter window system pleasantly good once I worked it out. Slight complication getting into the room which was swiftly resolved. Simple check out system. Would use again!

Beds as hard as rock
The most uncomfortable bed I have ever slept in, or rather tried to sleep in, as I barely slept because the bed was so bad.
Furthermore the code we were given to our room was wrong, so we had to call to get the correct code.

It’s a bit out of the way of Essen town centre, but easy to get to once you work out the tram situation
As the hotel is in a shopping centre you can, of an evening get youths playing football and cars
Being drag raced at 4 in the morning.
The room itself was excellent.

Hello anyone in
This place is not a hotel its do it your self. Everything is completed online. I didn't see any staff only the cleaner once and they didn't have the right towels. I only found the underground car by asking another guest.All the code entry doors were taped open anyone could have walked in. Would not stay at a Mcdreams hotel again.
