We had a pleasant stay. The staff was very friendly, and check-in was quick and easy. The room was clean overall, though perhaps a little more attention should be given to the carpet.
The beds were comfortable. The hotel is less than a five-minute walk from the main train station, and there are lots of restaurants and cafés nearby. I got a good deal when I booked the room. Therefore, it was great value for money.

Good location, quiet room with little own entrance room and extra door, still not really worth the money imho.
3 night stay excellent position and location very quiet road close to the lake one way and 5 minutes from the train station the other way
Staff were friendly and helpful rooms clean typical ibis layout if you have a late flight there are lockers available at 2 euros for your bags
An excellent location if you want to be near Alster Lake or the train station. Staff were friendly and the breakfast was fine (average). The rooms were very small (as advertised) and the was no room service nor gym and luggage storage only for a fee. Overall an OK hotel.
I like that is quite close to the station, shops and restaurants. Bed was comfortable, bathroom spotless and it was a nice stay. Only problem is that you can hear the trains at night, but it is not too bad!
This is the first place I'd recommend if you have a short stay in Hamburg and really just need a place to sleep. It's a great location (less than 5 minutes from the train station, and right across the street from the lake). The rooms are small but clean, we didn't have any noise from inside or outside the hotel, and service was helpful and friendly. Great option at a decent price.

Disliked: Room comfort
Friendly staff, but small room.
The hotel staff was very helpfull and friendly.
The room was very small and the bathroom as well unfortunately.
We got a room facing the rails and we could hear the trains all night.
The location for the property was excellent, easy to get to from the train station (HBF), and there were many good bars/restaurants within minutes walk. The area was quiet too.
The elevator was sporadic. Also a few times the doors from the stairs were open/accessible to anyone.
The elevators were broken. We were given a dirty room, and had to navigate back to the front desk. Front desk acted like it was an inconvenience to find us a clean unused room. I did not want to shower, the towels were stained. The beds and pillows are like rocks. The room was small, and warm in a great location. Parking is easy!
