B&b Hotel Dortmund Airport

The rooms were small, but clean and pleasant. Getting in was another story. I couldn’t use the late check-in panel, and it was freezing while I tried. I ended up calling booking.com for help, then a really nice, professional receptionist showed up and got us inside. In the morning, the code they’d given me wouldn’t open the main door. I had to knock on the room window and wake my wife so she could let me in. The entry system really needs work.

I paid 60 euros for the night, which seemed fairly affordable. It’s about 15 minutes from the airport, and check-in was quick. There was no check-out to deal with either. The room was clean and fine for sleeping. As someone paid in monopoly money, I’d imagine the price stings less for others.

It took me half an hour to work out how to check myself in. The system was bad, and the English instructions weren’t enough.

I stay here when I have an early flight because it’s the only hotel close to the airport. The beds are comfortable, and the rooms are always clean, but they’re very small, and sometimes the price feels too high for what you get. The air conditioning is really loud and won’t switch off. My room was above the entrance, so I could hear drunk people shouting in the parking area. I booked just to sleep before my flight and couldn’t sleep at all. I wish there were another option, but that’s how it is.
