8/10 Ottimo

Does the job if you want to avoid Essen centre
Generally a clean place and kept tidy. Friendly host, but the parking is a bit misleading from the Hotels page. There is no "official" parking there, you simply squeeze on to the patio area in front of the hotel as best as possible, but then even that's restricted as I got told twice nt to put it in specific bits. But for a building that has 30+ rooms, there's probably parking for about 4 cars at most. Lucky for me very few were staying, but you don't know whether your car is legal or not from day to day.
Multiple ways to travel to Essen from there, but all taking about 20 minutes, a big longer than anticipated, mainly because Germany has a million traffic lights that aren't sensor activated so you can be waiting ages at a junction with NOTHING going past.
Breakfast was tasty but not a huge selection, but enough to fill you up. No kettle in room but I think that's common in Europe, probably spoiled having it as default in UK so bring a travel kettle and some tea bags. Desk very small so you won't be working on it, but comfy bed and daily service for clean towels.
Shower head was a bit loose though, sometimes it would just spin or slide down, needs some securing for sure and even the sink tap was pretty stiff.
Did the job for a solo stay, but I might move slightly closer to Essen for next year.
