The Pension Seibel is a decent hotel in an old building. The front desk/reception area/ breakfast room is all sort of crammed together on the second floor (1st floor by European standards?). That space was hot, stuffy and crowded but we spent very little time there so it wasn’t a huge problem. The staff was helpful and friendly but the entire place needs some renovation. Everything was clean and the locks on all the doors are old mechanical devices but they all work properly. The room itself was a bit tired. The ceilings have clearly been added to reduce what was likely a lot of extra space to heat/cool. The room lacked both a fan and/or A/C. The large windows did fully open but overlooked an alley with trash cans, workers and lots of pigeons. The curtains were unacceptable and appeared to be completely missing at least one complete section. The bathroom was tiny and barely functional. The toilet worked, but just barely. The shower faucet was twitchy and if you bumped it even slightly you were rewarded with very cold or very hot water. The shower had an old plastic curtain that didn’t do much to contain the water in the shower. Overall, the bathroom was workable but less than ideal. The electrical outlets in the room were a bit suspect looking but they worked. The TV carried some local news but had a lot of nonfunctional channels. I don’t need a TV in room but it’s nice to get local weather without having to rely on your phone. On the positive side, the tram stop was close by. There were 2 excellent restaurants/beer gardens nearby. The room had a comfortable bed and everything was clean. Perhaps the price for this room should be a little lower considering the overall condition but it wasn’t bad. Had the room been priced about 25% lower I would have no complaints. It was a bit overpriced for what it was.
