Hotel Windthorst

The Windhorst Hotel is an absolute disaster. Sleeping here is practically impossible. Starting at 6:30 AM, the elevator roars through the entire building every 15 minutes—and this goes on for hours until about 10 AM. Incredible that such rooms are even rented out. Additionally, the cleaning staff loudly shout through the hallways in the morning, making any chance of relaxation impossible. The furnishings are falling apart, the showers are moldy, and the water barely gets warm. Apparently, there is only a tiny, completely overwhelmed water heater there. Overall loud, run-down, and absolutely not recommended.

The hotel is located almost immediately at the main train station. About 200m walk. The rooms are distributed over several floors of a commercial building, the reception is located in the 4th floor. OG. The rooms are spacious and clean, but the furniture and bathroom facilities are still up to the standard of the 1970s. A fundamental renovation should soon be undertaken here. Staff are friendly and helpful. I can't say anything about the breakfast offer, as not taken up. Anyway, €17 for this seems a bit excessive.

Not worth its money. The shower turned cold after a few minutes and there was a leak in the bathroom. The windows let in all the noise from the main street so sleeping was difficult, plus the mattress wasn't comfortable. The whole furniture looked quite outdated, maybe from the 80s, its wood had been painted white but is coming off, hence looking quite shabby. The floor in the elevator has probably not been vacuumed for ages. The floor in the room looked clean, but the carpet and the padding of the chair seemed old and dusty. It was a rather unpleasant stay. The central location is a plus. My complaint was brushed off by the host.
