Where should I begin? Let's start with my flight that had arrived in Frankfurt at 6:30 am! My…read morecheck-in time at the hotel was something like 2 pm. I wasn't exactly feeling like being a tourist with my luggage at this hour.
I ate a decent sandwich at airport. I then hailed a taxi to get to the hotel.
I walked in and was greeted by a sweet woman. I started off my saying that my check-in time was later in the day. She did a check to see whether my room was ready. It was! I can't tell you how relieved I was.
My room rate was 94€ a night (corporate rate), which comes with wifi. I got a comfortable room. It's minimalistic in design, but it was perfect.
My visit to London came in handy. Use one of your room keys to insert it in the slot next to the door. It provides electricity to your entire room.
My bed was comfortable. The small tube TV worked nicely. The shower's water pressure was decent. My room was made every day.
I tried taking a brief nap on my first day, but it didn't pan out. Instead, I took a walk around the area to figure out where things were and came back.
There isn't much open on a Sunday in this area. Instead, I headed to the hotel restaurant downstairs for an early dinner. It was happy hour. I ordered a mojito, which was refreshing and yummy. I also ordered dinner, which consisted of weiner schnitzel, a side salad, and bread to start.
The potatoes that accompanied the schnitzel were incredibly good. The schnitzel was good too. There was more breading on it than I had liked. Otherwise, it was delicious!
The side salad was yummy. I liked how fresh it was.
I ended dinner with a cup of tea. So good.
The room rate comes with breakfast. Let me say that breakfast was amazing! The catch? You need to check in at the restaurant and say your name and room number. The folks take breakfast attendance.
At breakfast, you have a choice of bagged or looseleaf tea. For the latter, there were at least twenty different varieties. I was in heaven!
The variety of breakfast items was fantastic. It even had soy beverage in little boxes. I'd have one for breakfast and take one to work. So good. This borderline lactose-intolerant gal says thanks!
I loved the blueberry crepes, sausage, baked beans, ... everything!
I'm glad that I stayed here. I had to ask to borrow a converter, as mine had died. The person at the front desk was kind to lend me one, as I needed it for work. I returned it on my last day, after work.
On Friday, I left my luggage at the front desk. I came back at around 2 pm to pick it up and returned the converter. I then asked for the complimentary shuttle bus, which the helpful woman at the front desk did efficiently.
Should I need to revisit Frankfurt for work, I'd stay here again.
