What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Very nice rural hotel. Friendly and helpful staff. Still they do not accept credit cards. Have not seen this since 2002 :-)”
“Really kind service. Wifi and all you need for your trip.”
“Wir waren hier auf Durchreise mit den Motorrädern - eine Nacht. Alles war ganz liebevoll angerichtet. Eine sehr nette Gastgeberfamilie, lecker Essen und wunderschön ruhig - zumindest hinten raus, wo wir geschlafen haben.”
“Hotel mit Charm wer in die Region möchte und die dortige Natur genießen mag. Wir waren dort mit der Familie (2 Doppelzimmer). Fazit der Service war herzig, das Essen (aufgeschnitten Semmeln beim Frühstück, guter lokaler Fisch zum Abendessen) gut und die Zimmer erinnerten an die 90er Jahre, was aber ok ist da man dort eher nicht hinfährt um den ganzen Tag auf dem Zimmer zu sein. Vielen Dank für die wirklich aufmerksame Gastgeber (hat man leider in neueren und teureren Hotels oft nicht mehr!”
“We stayed for a few days and it was wonderful. It's been 2 years, however I want to go back for yet another week this year.”
