GZ Hostel Bonn

We stayed there in December: first of all, if you want to enter the hostel, you need to go to the bar/restaurant first, where you will get the keys to the front door and the room. The room we stayed in was smelly and so cold, the heater did not work. The breakfast costs about EUR 6 and is rather nice, so that's a good thing. The rest - I'd recommend it for short stays only.

I booked a room online for 2 weeks and sent an email to the hotel stressing that I was arriving late. When I arrived I found out the bar was closed and the reception of the hotel is inside the bar, I tried to reach anyone from the staff but there was no one there. I spent the night outside and returned the next day at 9AM to found the owner who doesn't speak english and couldn't check me in and asked me to return around 5 pm. When I returned again the receptionist told me that my booking was cancelled due to a no show, I told him that I sent 2 emails that I was arriving late.. Anyway they relocated me to another branch of their hotel for a night then they arranged a room with a bathroom for me for the rest of the visit. The only positive thing was that the hotel is right beside Tannenbusch sud station and there's a Penny market right across from it.. Check-in is from 5pm - 10pm so be careful!

Shared toilets are cleaned once Even though temp was 6C in Sep, owners refused to switch on heater or provide us with extra blankets For veiled Muslim girls, you feel insecure if you are travelling alone, I was screamed at on a Sat night by neighborhood resident who seemed to be drunk
