This hostel is located in the heart of Cologne’s trendy Belgian Quarter, 2 km from Cologne Cathedral and the Rhine Embankment. Hostel die Wohngemeinschaft offers free Wi-Fi and design interiors.

Hostel die Wohngemeinschaft is a 2-minute walk from Moltkestraße Underground Station and a 4-minute walk from Rudolfplatz Underground Station. Cologne Main Station can be reached in under 30 minutes on foot. Super clean, the room is incredibly beautiful and well-equipped, and the bed is very spacious and lovely. Both the bathroom and toilet are extremely clean. The bed has curtains, making it super private. My bed also had individual heating underneath. The hotel is close to many eateries. The main tram stations are about 600 - 800m away from the hotel (walkable). The staff are incredibly friendly, from the cleaning staff to the receptionists. 100 points—absolutely worth the money. I will definitely come back because why not? This place is even better than many private room hotels I’ve stayed at. Highly recommend everyone to stay here.

Situated in Bonn, within 500 metres of Bonner Kuenstlerhaus and 700 metres of Opera Bonn, Hostel 45 features accommodation with free WiFi throughout the property. The property is set 700 metres from Bonn Minster, 800 metres from Beethoven Monument and 1.2 km from Rheinisches Landesmuseum Bonn. The property is 300 metres from the city centre and 300 metres from Beethoven House. The place is well maintained and secured. It is good that the door downstairs has a passcode for the safety of the guests. The area is convenient especially it's walking distance to nearby landmarks and food establishments. I like the ambiance and size of the room. It is good that the room has its own sink and mini refrigerator. The room in this hostel have a better privacy compare to the other hostels. The lobby staff and the cleaning staff are friendly and accomodating to the guests. For my week stay I enjoyed it and felt comfortable because it feels like my personal room from my home.
