B&B HOTEL Bochum Hbf-Nord

For getting a train, tram or bus quickly, this location is hard to beat: the hotel is attached to the central station. That does mean you can expect noise from train announcements in rear rooms or from the bus station in front rooms, so bring earplugs if you're sensitive to it. It's a pretty basic hotel at a great central spot and an unbeatable price. Breakfast was good, nothing fancy, but good enough. The rooms are minimally decorated and the bathroom was clean, though the room floor and carpet could use a thorough cleaning. There's a TV too, if you need one. I wish the hotel had a luggage room for guests who want to explore the city after checking out.

This time I was traveling alone on business, though my family and I often stay with your hotel chain. We've stayed in Poland and France too, and we've always been satisfied. I liked this stay overall. It would be nice to have shower gel and slippers for indoors.

If you're in the Essen area, please don't stay at Limehome. We're seniors and arrived at the one in Essen to find no elevator, and the halls and staircase didn't light up. We stayed one night out of our five days. We sent pictures, but they refused to return our money. This place isn't safe!

I got there early and only wanted to leave my suitcase at the hotel before going to my conference, but they wouldn't allow it. In general, there's nowhere to store luggage if you arrive early or leave later.
