What makes the hostel special

Travel Gay calls Die Wohngemeinschaft a “gay-popular budget hotel”, just “a couple of minutes’ walk” from the scene; Nomadic Boys recommend it as “gay friendly accommodation”, and GayOut marks it as a safe space. That makes it the first choice for anyone who wants to sleep cheaply in the middle of Cologne’s nightlife district.
