Yeah.. I remember some decades ago when I was staying in a Canadian hotel, at floor 14, then I found that I was actually on floor 13. It went directly from 12 to "14". I couldn't fathom that an actual hotel could fall to such sillyness. But then I learned it's actually common there. Sigh.
I'd even say most Germans treat 13 the same way as 7, 69, 666, or any Schnappszahl (repeating digits, e.g. 11 or 3333): "oh, nice" and a shrug. It's not so much unlucky as just "spooky" but very few would lose any sleep over it.
In fact I probably know more Germans who ironically insist that it's their lucky number than Germans who'd refuse e.g. sitting on seat 13 in a train.
