I got to Bamberg late and checked in at the Ibis. I'm used to small rooms, but this was just silly. When I walked into the room, I was hit with the smell of something like ammonia/stale cheese that was coming from the bathroom. The bed was not much larger than a cot and had a thin hard mattress. The TV was 6" diagonal and wasn't receiving anything. There was no internet access and the computer in the lobby didn't work. I actually asked for directions to another hotel, but the clerk was useless and had no idea where I could go to look on the internet. So I ended up having to stay.

On the plus side, I went to bed early and got up early because there were absolutely no distractions.

The shower was very small and there was no shampoo. In my three weeks on the road this time, this was the worst hotel experience. I didn't get breakfast because it was very overpriced, much like the overall value of the hotel..
