One of my colleagues tried to check in after 11pm using the self-service system it found is booking, asked him to enter my address, and then when pressed to confirm it said it couldn’t process my check-in. This happened to another colleague arriving late due to flight delays -the system is unreliable/faulty, which is a particular issue when the check-in desk is unmanned. Both had to use the hotel's emergency number. Overall the hotel was clean and service was ok.

Hello George,
Motel One Koln-Waidmarkt was a very good option for us.

Price / quality ration very good, spacious and clean room. Breakfast simple but more than enough. Nice lobby and friendly staff. Only negative point is the noise at night in the rooms facing the street, very difficult to rest. I was lucky to face the interior areas but my colleagues had trouble sleeping.
Hi Mark,
Yes, we came back last Friday. The hotel was good and well located next to the underground and near the city center. To keep in mind for the next Chillventa! Thanks!
Best regards,
Marike Stirnemann Export Customer Account Manager

I haven't heard anything from them and I assume everything was great. The service that Mr. Tom Parker provided was excellent.
