Fantastic hotel placed in the city centre of Hannover. Very nice and very big and confortable rooms. Very good breakfast service too. Best hotel I never stayed in Hannover. We stayed there for profesional reasons and in the case to come to Hannover again, we will repeat!

Dear Ben,
I want to share my feedback regarding my recent stay at Jugendherberge City-Hostel Koln-Riehl. I had a good experience, but a few points are worth mentioning.
Firstly, I commend the hostel's location, which is conveniently situated near the trade fair. This was one of the hostel's significant strengths.
However, I noticed that the rooms, although clean, had a rather plain and not very cosy ambience.
Thank you again, and I wish you continued success in future development.

The overall opinion regarding Glam Milano was positive. The staff was friendly, the location was great and the service in general good, although not always adequate. The breakfast was average - a little less than expected. The beds were comfortable.
