Hanns-Lilje-Haus

Good and optimised service

Electric room key behaved a bit strange. Many attempts were sometime needed to open the door.

Stayed here a second time and this time breakfast was much better (a minor criticism I had last week). Everyone is really friendly here and I just love the peace and quiet and comfy beds. Everything is super clean, too.

Nice location; my room was on the smaller side but clean and well equipped (e.g. hairdryer); the bathroom however was very small (and I am not big) but with shelf space! Finally, a hotel that realizes that I have to put my stuff somewhere :-) At night it was pretty quiet, nothing but the church bells, and the bed was really comfy. Also, staff was very friendly.

As there really wasn't much space in the bathroom, the sink was really narrow (more wide than deep) and they kinda put the fixtures to the side of the sink instead of behind it. That lead to the faucet protruding almost into the middle of the sink, thus being completely in the way of any attempt to wash my face. Even brushing my teeth was challenging as I had rammed the faucet into my head the first time I tried. They tried to make the most use of what little space there is and I really appreciate it, but the concept for the sink was not really thought through to the end it seems ;-) Breakfast was a bit disappointing in that there was a lot of stuff that seemed old and certainly not fresh, like the totally limp pieces of cucumber and bellpepper or the mixed fruitsalad in a bowl that seemed to be on its third re-run at the buffet. I also didn't like that they had pineapple from a can for the breakfast assortment as this is very sugary and not healthy at all.

Excellent location in the center of the city. Small room, but perfectly set up for getting some work done on the fly. Breakfast was as I'd expect in Germany -- a nice buffet with plenty of selection.
