The hotel was below my expectations, even knowing beforehand that it was a budget hotel. The photos advertised online don’t really match the reality. The entrance is very inconvenient. There are two flights of stairs just to reach reception, and the elevator wasn’t working. This meant carrying all our luggage upstairs to check in, only to take it back downstairs again to reach the room. The building seems to have been industrial in the past, which gives it a slightly strange feel. The hotel was also very noisy. We could hear every step from the rooms above us. The shower temperature was extremely unstable, changing from very hot to cold within seconds. The air conditioning wasn’t working at all, not even the fan. Opening the window wasn’t much of an option either, as it faces an industrial area and the noise outside is quite loud. I’ve stayed at dozens of Ibis Budget hotels, including several recently, and unfortunately this was the worst one so far. That said, for just one night, it was manageable.

The breakfast was excellent, a well staffed and very well maintained buffet. The rooms were well furnished and daily cleaned. The staff was friendly and professional. The property is in close proximity to the subway station. Should we return to Nuernberg, we will stay there again.
