| Comments: I spent a night in station hostel , the location is the best and the direction they gave in trav was perfect,staff were also nice and helpful and the most good fact was that the rooms were quite big (not the case in all the hostels I have been so far)and clean, it is also cheap and you get more than what you pay I believe, if I travel to koln again I will definitely stay there once more. |

| Comments: The place where the hostel is located is very good but rather noisy, specially the rooms facing the train station. Other than that, a good hostel. |

| Comments: Ok for one night. Room didn't look very nice and was a bit smelly. I didn't think it was dirty at first but then I saw a mouse in the kitchen and that ruined it for me. Staff was very friendly! |

| Comments: 100 meters is a far cry from what I walked to get there. The lounges were great, flat-screens showing football all night, though it seems they spent all their time on them as opposed to the rooms. The bed wasn't comfortable at all and the bathrooms and lockers needed repairs. |

| Comments: Nice and cheap and so close to the Dom! Only things.. level 3 hall smelt pretty bad and it is right next to the station, so be prepared to hear trains and announcements all the time. |

| Comments: Wasn't too impressed with this place. The building is very old, so the hallways and rooms have a dinghy feel to them, even when clean. The walls are paper thin, so bring earplugs if you actually want sleep. Also, the front desk gave my room key card to some people who came busting into my room at 2 am (I had a single.) No apology offered for the mixup. Doesn't matter that the smoking room is only upstairs as the lobby area still reeks of smoke. |

| Comments: The room is ok, the bathroom is a bit disgusting, the staff is not very friendly and what you get is not worth the price you pay. If you have a chance, do not sleep in cologne as you do not need more than an afternoon to visit the most important sights! |

| Comments: The only thing about security is that all the lockers are either in the basement or outside the room, it would have been better to have them in the room. The hostel was really close to the train station and very convenient! All in all we had a good time here. |

| Comments: A good hostel, although everything seemed a little average. The kitchen is difficult but usable and the TV room doubled as the smoking room meaning if you wanted to watch TV you had to follow it up with a trip to the laundry. |

| Comments: Worked great for my 1 night stay cuz its super close to train station. Free wifi and bar on main level, didn't sleep in a bunk (yay!), kinda sketchy characters in hostel but that's not hostel's fault, hallways are a bit sparse and industrial but rooms were fine. |
