Das Hotel ist sehr schön, die Mitarbeiter super nett und auch das Frühstück war richtig gut!
Nicht so gut war das Bett.... wir sind sehr groß und am Kopfende war ein Brett als Ablage angebracht, optisch ja schön,aber es fehlten uns 10cm an Bettlänge und das war echt viel. Die Beine meines Mannes schauten über das Bett hinaus das war nicht sehr bequem.

Schönes Hotel aber mit unbequemen Bett
Waren nur 1 Nacht dort, Hotel Empfang und Frühstück waren sehr gut.
Am Bett hinten ist eine Kante (oder Ablage) woran man in der Nacht öfter stößt (bin 180cm groß)
Ebenso muss man morgens mit Motorrad Geräuschen rechnen da es ein motoradfreundlichea Hotel ist

Zimmer mit Ambiente
Das Hotel liegt in einer Seitenstraße, ist also ruhig. Leider ist der hoteleigene Parkplatz beschränkt, aber auf der Straße war genug Platz vorhanden.
Das Frühstück war OK, einzig der Frühstücksraum wirkt etwas einfach.
Das Zimmer ist das große Plus. Einzigartiges Holz-Dekor. Man betritt das Zimmer und hat ein "Wald-Gefühl"; es riecht auch nach Holz. Wirklich empfehlenswert.
Der Ort hat ein nettes und lebhaftes Zentrum. Für unseren Zweck (1 Nacht auf der Durchreise) also alles in Allem hervorragend geeignet. Man kann zu Fuß vom Hotel ins Zentrum, und dennoch liegt das Quartier sehr ruhig.

Sehr gutes und schön eingerichtetes Hotel!
Das Hotel hat wirklich alles zu bieten. Zimmer, Flure und Frühstücksräume sind schön rustikal und modern eingerichtet. Allerdings wäre ein Holzboden im Zimmer noch attraktiver. Ansonsten kann man Hotel vom Service, Frühstück und Komfort weiterempfehlen.
