A very odd (Egyptian themed) hotel! Stepping inside the Wali and I could easily have been back in Cairo, complete with a deformed Chihuahua and artefacts from Tutankhamun’s tomb. Had I perhaps stepped into the realms of the Twilight Zone? Stepping outside I could have been in Immigrant Central! I believe that North Rhine-Westphalia has the greatest number of immigrants in Germany. Having said that (although they may appear intimidating) I didn’t encounter any problems whilst I was in Bielefeld. The hotel is a ten minute walk from the station and a 15 minute walk from the centre in a rather dilapidated area of Bielefeld. The name ‘Wali’ orignates from an Arabic word meaning guardian, custodian or protector. The hotel itself rather matches the delapidated area and is in dire need of a refresh. My room was large and the bathroom clean although the mattress was extremely saggy and the pillows lumpy. Staff are friendly and the cost per night (€67, including breakfast) is reasonable. The breakfast is poor and just about sufficed. Basic, budget, the bare minimum! Nearly a three, but not quite!
