I enjoyed the atmosphere you managed to create in a very limited space. However i disliked the very audible and still pretty loud subwoofer of the club next door hammering on until 11:30PM.

Did not like the German-style bathrooms (no shower curtains) —no hot water in the tap which is not a must but would be nice.

Unique Experience
Overall great stay. Coffee was surprisingly good. Location and price were great. Rooms were unique. Storage in room was limited and it felt rather warm as there is no thermostat to set. Really like the idea of an app based hotel and would definitely stay there again.

Hot box!
Too hot to sleep. Advertised with air conditioning. But you have no control over temps in your room. It’s controlled centrally. So I didn’t sleep till temps went down outside (and then Inside the hotel) at 3 am. Not good. I booked 2 nights. I didn’t stay there the second night. Parking is paid across the street during the day so that is also not accurate advertising. Not a bad tiny “box” to sleep in otherwise. Decent beds. Shower in room. Bathroom down the hall. Clean. Kind staff. WiFi ok. Don’t forget to download the app. Pretty busy neighborhood. Price was good.

Tiny but sweet
It’s a great little hotel room, it did get a touch too warm in the night, an addition climate control would be nice.

Good, Inexpensive Option Across the University
The place is fine for a couple of nights. The rooms are small, obviously, and they lack their own showers, also obviously. But for the money it's a pretty good deal, especially for solo travelers who are really just looking for a place to sleep for a night or two. As long as you're okay doing your lounging in public, at one of the nearby cafes, it doesn't end up feeling particularly claustrophobic. At least it didn't to me. Also, don't let the "app based hotel" thing scare you if you have limited cell phone service. There's easily accessible WiFi at the place, so as soon as you're in range of the door, you're likely also in range of WiFi signal. And you can also make a regular key card once you're there if you don't feel comfortable relying on your phone. Location right next to the university is GREAT for anybody who has business there.

Nice Concept
The idea and concept is a good one with on-line booking but being able to check-in remotely outside normal hotel opening times, especially from late night flights. Like any pioneering concept there are always a few teething issues. I arrived outside the hotel at 01:30ish and after having accessed my e-Mails on my smartphone to get to the app found I had to download it to my phone in order to proceed further (I didn't have time to do this prior to commencing my trip). Having reactivated the Google Play app I managed to somehow get checked in. Regardless of my ability with apps the process would be a daunting one for someone even less technically versed than I and frankly took nearly 1.25 hours+, not the best in the middle of the night. Having got to the point of getting to the hotel door to unlock it with the download received, it didn't work. Luckily I found another bell (not marked clearly as such) to summon the lady from her slumbers at nearly 03:00 to let me in. She activated a plastic card for that did work much like the other hotels I have stayed in. The room is okay if you need somewhere to sleep/stay for a night or 2 ( I had a shower & basin but toilets are a communal affair). For the price and for what you get it is good as compared to other, similar hotel brands. The price is also competitive compared to others in the area. All in all, for what I got I was happy with party from the key activation and the check-in/download time. Give the hotel a try.

Value for money
This is a strict budget hotel and everything is minimalistic. It's in great condition though and clean. Lighting is extremely good in the room. Wifi was slow, but at least it was on all the time. Free coffee at the entrance 24/7. Really it's priced like a hostel, but you have a small private room, so certainly excellent value for money.

Such fun....
Value for money, spotless, comfortable mattress, great coffee. A fantastic room for a night, maybe 2 as can get claustrophobic without a window.

great affordable no frills option
This is a great no frills option near the university. Up from a hostel and affordable. Great service and accommodating staff. I stayed for 2 days and then return for 2 more days the week after. If you need a place to sleep and drop your bag, this is it.

Very good experience
My daughter and I stayed here on our trip through Germany. Staff was on the premises b/c they are new and trying to help people figure out how this concept works. This was a good thing b/c I had made the reservation on - route and then lost as data/ wifi connection until after we arrived. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the uniqueness of this business venture and were only looking for a place to sleep along the road, so it was great for us. Very clean and comfortable beds. Also within close walking distance of city market. Think hostel -type lodging - not for those looking for full - service hotel. We had a great experience there.
