THE QVEST hideaway

The guest I booked for enjoyed staying at QVEST but would noted that it would have been very helpful to know in advance that the room does not come equipped with an air conditioning unit.

I am a Bonvoy Titanium member and booked 2 rooms a stay at The Qvest Cologne hotel. I assumed that rooms in a hotel of this caliber and price would have air conditioning. The nights were quite miserable as the outside temperature was around +30°C. Nothing worked at this hotel: rude service, no benefits for status members, breakfast wasn't included in the price (if you can even call it breakfast – more like overpriced coffee). The room's decor was minimalistic, if you can even call it decor. The nightstand was a ridiculous "table" that was only 10-15 cm off the floor. The room and corridor were dark. This is all supposedly called a design hotel. Check-in was only allowed a minute early at 14:59, and check-out was at 11 AM. Fortunately, I managed to get a late check-out until 12 PM – wow. Three nights at this hotel, and thankfully they were the last ones. Never again. I don’t understand why Marriott has chosen this overpriced hotel as a partner. Over 300 euros for a basic room per night.
