Pros:

Die ganze Ambiente das Frühstück war sehr gut.

Cons:

Getränke Selbstbedinung gute Idee. Aber nicht gut Organisiert. Offene Weinflaschen geht gar nicht! Besser nur kleine 3dl Fläschchen. Preise für Selbstbedinung viel zu hoch.

Pros:

Esternamente la struttura sembra abbastanza vecchiotta e necessiterebbe di manutenzione. Le camere sono spartane, però pulite. Il villaggio è molto tranquillo. Il personale è molto gentile e disponibile. La colazione sicuramente il punto forte. È ottima e con prodotti locali naturali e di qualità, che abbiamo molto apprezzato.

Cons:

Speicher è abbastanza lontano da Appenzello o San Gallo (ca 30 minuti) e la strada è una strada di montagna che si snoda tra le colline. Il paesaggio è comunque piacevole. Non ci sono strutture o musei da visitare nelle immediate vicinanze.

Gutes Frühstück und freundlicher Empfang.

Sehr hellhörig, da sehr
altes Haus mit Holzdecken. Man hört jeden Schritt über einem. Das kann den Schlaf sehr einschränken. 8

Kurze Auszeit
Pros:

Die Lage ist super und das Frühstück wirklich gut, vor allem die Wassermelone war sehr schmackhaft, der Kaffee war prima und die Bedienung sehr zuvorkommend.

Cons:

Den Wirt sahen wir nur bei der Ankunft sonst nicht mehr.
Das Zimmer wurde nicht gereinigt. Die Betten nicht gemacht und der Abfall aus dem Badzimmer nicht entsorgt. Sehr bedauerlich.
Es wurde auf dem Feld Jauche verteilt, so dass wir das Fenster zumachen mussten. Dafür kann der Wirt wirklich nichts, war trotzdem unangenehm.
