Review 2：- we had really big apartment with two bedrooms, living room and small kitchen - breakfast was tasty

Review 3：The cleaners were making a lot of noise since very early in the morning. They were knocking every door since 6.30 am to check if the rooms were empty!!

Review 4：We spent one night to rest in the middle of a long trip we were doing by car. It is ok to spend just one night. It has a good shower and a comfortable bed. It has double glazing windows so you can't hear the traffic from the highway. Good receptionist.

Review 5：the queen bed was composed of two mattresses, which made it hard to sleep because they got separated all the time! Location was inconvenient without private car

Review 6：Breakfast, nice staff, clean and beautiful, free Wifi was good enough to watch a movie online

Review 7：Close to highway. First floor room with no air so couldn't really open a window. When we did all we heard were russians arguing in parking lot and you can't shush russians...

Review 8：Food was good. Barkeep was friendly.

Review 9：No A/C Very far from the center of ingloshtat Slow wifi Very very small room

Review 10：Friendly staff Free wifi Free parking Next to gas station and burger king Next to the highway

Review 11：big spiders in the room. Rooms furniture Old and not so clean.

Review 12：The stuff were very helpfull and friendly. The hotel is very close to the highway so you can continue your drive.

Review 13：I have booked a room with two separate beds as i was sharing the room with a friend, but we received a double bed instead. Not very nice in summer. No alternative was proposed.

Review 14：Staff and location

Review 15：WiFi is not working at all. Nothing to eat on Sunday evening. You have to go somewhere to eat something and you neet to find such place by youself. Restaurant service German spoken only and surpisingly slow working.

Review 16：Very close to the highway. Entrance desk service very well and English spoken. Parking places OK.

Review 17：strange, you can't order oa bottle of wine with your dinner; only per glass. Motorway noise is a bit intrusive in rooms facing it

Review 18：convenient location

Review 19：They do not enforce the no-smoking policy. Our 'neighbor' smoked and our room smelled terrible the whole time. Then they to charge us for someone else's room service.

Review 20：Breakfast was the usual fair; but food was good and so was the coffee.

Review 21：Very noisy room (next to the highway) Uncomfortable bed (too soft) Bathroom: shower has low water pressure Overall apartment not well organised: no lamp next to the bed, etc..

Review 22：Staff nice and professional Breakfast is good while very cheap compared to other hotels

Review 23：For what we paid (which was 30euro more than the rate on the back of the door!) we were disappointed to find no fridge or coffee making facilities.

Review 24：Very convenient for an overnight stop, just off the highway. Also the restaurant was excellent.

Review 25：Unfriendly staff Wi-Fi access Breakfast, well, I've got tea and slice of cheese. Russian speaking check-in lady was extremely impolite

Review 26：Morning particular

Review 27：I was in the Hotel to visit the Nurnberg fair. It's 80 km but easy to drive. When the Hotels in Nurnberg reach 300 eu/night excellent choice. Rooms are ok - Restaurant downstairs is ok - all in all a great stop on your way.

Review 28：I stayed in the hotel twice for 5 nights each stay. The first week came to a total of 358.00 Euros and the second week came to a total of 583.00 Euros. Both weeks were in the same style rooms, but the price changed. The hallway carpeting and room carpets were stained, the showers had mold (black mold) and some broken tiles. This is a 3 star hotel with prices of a 4 star hotel and rooms of a 1 or 2 star hotel. I will avoid staying at this hotel in the future if possible.

Review 29：Restaurant was nice with good food and hotel staff was very friendly.

Review 30：The staff in reception and restaurant was very unpleasant, not helpful, smokers standing in front of the hotel influence very bad the quality of sleep with smoke going up to the windows

Review 31：The hotel is OK, Good hotel´s restaurant, In walking distance just Burger King and Petrol station so you have to count with this.

Review 32：- you can hear the highway but it s really not that bad

Review 33：- great location if you are passing through - very friendly staff that go out of their way to help you with everything -the rooms are beautiful and clean -great wi fi -great breakfast -free parking

Review 34：Available baby chair not clean (breakfasts).

Review 35：Close to highway, clean big two room apartment, plenty of parking space, you don't hear the highway (but window has to be closed)

Review 36：The hotel is just near the highway. From one side it's ok' - youjust wake up, eat breakfast and continue the travel but on the other itmay be extremely noisy with open windows. Especially when it's hot,there is no ac in the room (that's ok', no complaint about it) -when you open the window the highway traffic may be annoying for somepeople. Just make sure such things do not disturb you and everythingwill be fine.

Review 37：Very nice play to stay when in transit through Germany. Reallycomfortable rooms, great breakfast(!) and nice restaurant whenyou're hungry in the evening. Definitely worth the money.

Review 38：Bad WIFI connections, not workable. Noise of the highway througout the whole night

Review 55：very convenient hotel when traveling by car (near the exit of the highway). Friendly staff, excellent breakfast.

Review 70：Breakfast was excellent, comfortable room

Review 71：no airco

Review 72：the room and the breakfast was ok

Review 73：Got a room on the highwayside; there is absolutely NO soundbarrier between the hotel and the speedy German highway, which is some 20 mtrs from the hotel. NO sleep, in a somewhat clostrophobic, damped room... Seriously nothing nice about this IBIS-like hotel, where everything feels simply cheap.

Review 74：We had to walk like 10mins to get the bus and the surroundings are not really made for pedestrians, they are thought for people with cars. It's not so bad but take care if you have to carry many luggage with you.

Review 75：The staff was really nice. The service was quick. All the spaces were clean and comfortable. The room had enough space and facilities. The bathroom was clean and all worked ok. The lobby is good for reading, talk or have a little meeting. The breakfast was excellent. Highly recommended!

Review 76：I would really do not recommend this hotel. We were traveling on our way back from Italy. The location of hotel is too close to motorway A9 and the problem is the air-condition in the room (not existing) so you cannot open a window as the noise is just too high, noise 24/7, cannot sleep at all. We had reserved the type of the room called "appartament"t but it was just a kind of staff flat/not appartment type at all. The breakfast buffet was really poor! Was served between 6.30-10.00 and was ripped already at 8.45. Very poor selection of hot and cold dishes. All dishes were cold at the time of 9.00 and staff of restaurant was not doing anything about it. Very poor service from the restaurant staff. All pictures of the hotel are photoshopped, do not be mistaken! When we arrived in the main area including reception/bar /restaurant a basked was standing in the middle of the floor as the celling was sinking! Really 1*star hotel!

Review 77：nothing really

Review 78：The breakfast buffet was really poor! Was served between 6.30-10.00 and was ripped already at 8.45. Very poor selection of hot and cold dishes. Poor service from the restaurant staff. No aircondition at the hotel, so it was about 30 decrees in the room, and we could not sleep because of the location right af the motorway A9 with heavy traffic 24/7 !

Review 79：The staff at the reception was frindly and helpfull.

Review 80：Food overpriced for region, and half menu was not available

Review 81：Close to motorway. two connected rooms instead of three bed room. Breakfast buffet was good

Review 82：Price slightly higher than average for this level of hotel, given its out-of-town location Ingolstadt is not recommended on a Sunday.

Review 83：General décor and facilities, convenient parking, helpful staff.

Review 84：Top floor, motorway facing (traffic too loud), broom stick cupboard size room with small flat screen TV with only one English speaking BBC World channel.

Review 85：Location-on the motorway as we were travelling further south. Not far from the center of Ingolstadt, either. English speaking receptionist. Excellent cuisine, decent breakfast. Nice enough decor. Convenient hotel car park. petrol station and garage(in the case of need, as it happened). Last but not least-not too pricey

Review 86：hot water was even from cold tube - should be repaired or adjusted

Review 87：comfortable location for transit, close to Outlet, excellent breakfast, good appartment with kitchen and all the necessary staff in it. nice price. recommended for family trips

Review 88：Can't think of anything. It surpassed all expectations for the price.

Review 89：It's location close to the Autobahn. Breakfast: included in cost of the hotel and VERY extensive and delicious! Friendly, helpful staff. Internet service. Clean. Price was great.

Review 90：Excellent location. Esay access to both the city and the Autobahn. Fanatstic price Excellent staff, as kind, professional and helpful as in any 5 star hotel- probably better

Review 91：Our stay was overbooked! De manager dit what hè can, but was notenough.....we booked à hotel for 8 persons en get à room for 5. Whedidn't have hot water in the shower and no wifi....breakfeast wasexcellent!!

Review 92：Right by the autobahn and hence quie noisy all the time. Breakfast was included, but very basic.

Review 93：Very close to the Ingolstadt Village outlet. Excellent location if you are visiting for shopping.

Review 94：Was a good pit stop in a long journey. Got back ache from the beds, think to do with the pillows being too flat! Brekkie was lovely though. Despite being on a busy motorway, very quiet.

Review 95：We had a 1 night stay (2 adults, 2 children) on the way down to Croatiafrom the uk.Overall experience was very satisfactory, from a simple check-in, to a good family room, immaculately clean to usual German standards, good shower, bedding and comfort. We did not use the onsite restaurant as the kids wanted to visit the Burger King which is conveniently located 200 metres away. We did have some bar drinks which were the only dissapointment as there was no draft beer available and we had to settle for bottled. Still very good. Breakfast (Included in rate) was great with hot and cold options and good quality strong coffee, just great for a long drive ahead. Overall would recommend especially for similar travellers who need a good overnight stop at a reasonable price.

Review 96：No tea or coffee making facilities in bedrooms They advertise free wifi in each room, but you only get 1 hour and then have to go and ask reception to renew

Review 97：Location, easy access to the motorway Clean

Review 98：There were no tea/coffee making facilities in the room which would have been nice.

Review 99：Due to our late arrival arrangements were made prior to us arriving to facilitate this. This was extremely helpful. The hotel was ideally placed for easy access to and from the autobahn. The rooms were spotlessly clean and comfortable and the breakfast which was included in the price was varied and of a good quality. I would recomend this hotel to anyone visiting the area.

Review 100：Although wifi is free it is just for an hour and then you have to askfor another login etc. This is a bit of inconvenience.

Review 101：Close to the motorway, but very quiet. Comfortable beds. Good breakfast.

Review 102：The staff wasn't very kind, there was nothing to snack while we were waiting for our table. It wasn't clear who was responsible for the bar.

Review 103：Everythingmyou asked already, clean, nice room, etc.

Review 104：Great place for an overnight close to Munich. Room was clean, beds were comfortable. There is very good restaurant in the hotel. Breakfast was very good with large selection of food. Good quality for reasonable price.

Review 105：1) It is said that wi-fi is free in the hotel, but you can only get username and password for an hour, then you have to get another one at the reception (each hour). If you want wi-fi for 24 hours, you have to pay 10 euros. This is weird and looks like intentionally creating inconveniences to make you pay.2) It was quite cold in the room at night, the heating could be stronger. Other than these minor issues, we were satisfied with the hotel.

Review 106：Stuff was very friendly and ready to answer all of our questions. Roomhas nice interior, the hotel has convenient parking for car. You canalso have some good local beer in the hotel restaurant.

Review 107：Small tv with noisy picture. Small rooms. Instable internet.
