The staff was very lovely, friendly always said hello or good morning. All very approachable. I liked the location, I was going to concerts at Veltins Arena, it’s a 45 minute walk there which is convenient because after the concert the trams where full. If you do want to use the trams the stops are 2 minutes from the front door. The room was very clean and modern.

Location was just perfect. Well reachable by car as well as by public transport. Kitchen is fully equiped and the flat is spotless clean and tidy. If you search for a stay in Gelsenkirchen, this is the place to go for. 10/10 value for money. Would always stay here again. Also the hosts are always available and super kind.
