B&B HOTEL Magdeburg-City

房間小而精緻，符合快捷酒店的所有標準。

I'm trying my best to be fair to this place, but it all boils down to this, I did not enjoy my experience.  So, here are the cold hard facts,  it is a 3 star hotel located in a convenient spot for us on our way to the Czech Republic, so we stayed there. We chose the family room, which comes with a double bed and two single bunk beds. The room was clean and sufficiently kitted out for the needs of a quick stay over. The bathroom was sufficient for our purpose and had sufficient space to change. The lights in the room were somewhat temperamental, but after fiddling with them for a while, we got them to work. The hotel has limited parking and as we arrived at 21:30 hrs, there was none left so we parked nearby on the street which is free from 20:00 hrs to 08:00 hrs. Here is where the drama started. We were "greeted" by a gentleman at the front desk who possessed a "matter of fact" disposition. He is the stereotypical German with whom I like to work but lacks social skills. He was not rude, but neither was he welcoming.  He was not unhelpful, but I did not feel particularly helped. It would appear that if you don't call the hotel to confirm your stay by 18:00 hrs, your room is cancelled.  He told us this in a manner that made us feel like we were unaware of the obvious while simultaneously telling us that he did not cancel the room on this occasion.  To cut a long story short, after a long day of driving, we did not need to feel as if we were about to be stranded in Magnaburge with nowhere to sleep. To sum this up, it's a stop over spot on our destination, and while it served its purpose, I would not stay here again.

Convenient location relative to train station. Easy to find. Bed was comfortable. Good size room. Tram noise when on road side. No lookup for bike. Typical middling buffet breakfast. English spoken by some at front desk.

The hotel is good, clean and food OK. However: (i) Reception closes 9pm. Door to street is closed and only opens from inside. No-one answers the buzzer. So unless someone is in the lobby, you can't check in. (ii) Parking is inadequate. Had to park on the street - as did others. (iii) WiFi is difficult to connect to and no-one answers for help. We were lucky and managed to get let in and then wedged the door. Had we been later, this would have been unlikely.

Unfreundliches Personal; Schimmel im Zimmer & Brötchen vom Vortag. Wer Lust auf die absolute Enttäuschung hat und schlecht in den Tag starten möchte ist hier gut aufgehoben. Wir sind geschäftlich abends angereist und für nur eine Nacht geblieben und hierüber sehr froh den für eine weitere Übernachtung hätte ich mir ein anderes „Hotel“ gesucht.
