I recently stayed at Living Hotel for a total of five nights and wanted to share my experience. Overall, my stay had its ups and downs.
One thing that stood out to me was the self-check-in process. While it was convenient, I didn't feel a warm welcome or personal touch that I usually associate with hotels. It seems to be a growing trend in Germany, but personally, I prefer a more personalized check-in experience.
On a positive note, I appreciated their policy of allowing guests to refill their water bottles for free. It's a thoughtful and eco-friendly gesture. However, on the first day of my stay, I noticed that my empty water bottle was left on the table after the cleaning service. The following day, I found dirty mugs and a coffee maker. This inconsistency in the cleaning and refilling routine was a letdown and affected my overall impression.
On the bright side, the hotel's location was excellent. It was situated in a quiet area, and there was a supermarket conveniently located nearby. This made it easy to grab any necessities or snacks during my stay.
Unfortunately, one aspect that significantly impacted my quality of sleep was the constant wall clicking sounds. It was present throughout the day and night, and sometimes the noise was so loud that it would wake me up during the night. I'm unsure of the source of these sounds, but it was quite bothersome.
