Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The rooms were clean, cozy, and spacious, providing a comfortable stay. The service was friendly and helpful, although there were moments of stress due to understaffing. The location was convenient with nearby amenities, although not the best in town. The dining experience offered a good selection of hot and cold items, but with a few shortcomings. Overall, a pleasant stay with good value for money.
The hotel has a nice location with Edeka around the corner and a bus stop right at the entrance. The rooms are clean, but not the modern first-class style. The service, however, needs improvement in terms of being more friendly and flexible. The dining options are decent, but the experience is compromised by excessive smoke. Overall, good value for money but not without flaws.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were comfortable and clean, offering an amazing view, even though it was a bit hot and there was no fan provided. The air conditioning, although not very effective, did its job. The service had a rocky start due to a bit of stress on their end, but they made up for it with their friendly and embarrassed demeanor. The location was good, not too far from the main town, with friendly staff, and a mini-bar. The dining experience was excellent with a variety of hot and cold items, tea, coffee, and infamous German brötchen. Overall, a decent value for the money.
Staying at this hotel felt like stepping into a time capsule to the 60s with a very comfortable room and a great shower. The minibar, large TV, and nice garden view were a delightful touch. However, the shaggy carpet was a bit off-putting. The service was superb with friendly staff who even interacted well with our baby and dogs. The location was convenient for accessing motorways and had a bus stop right outside the door for easy travel to Freiburg. The dining options were a bit limited considering the price, but the breakfast was good. Overall, a lovely stay with some minor drawbacks.
