A fabulous stay with outstanding hospitality—we couldn’t have asked for more!
Pros:

Friederike made us feel welcome from the minute we arrived. What a lovely location they have there. Away from the bustle of the town but close enough to walk to everything. The food was delicious, thank you Johannes, all the staff were great. Rolfs and Baltimore are a gem of a place to visit, couldn’t have wished for a better place to spend a significant birthday.

Peaceful, friendly, wonderful food and accomodation. Returned home refreshed and rejuvenated.
Pros:

The breakfast was absolutely perfect. Brought to our table by very helpful and friendly staff. Wonderful selection, freshly prepared ,beautiful presentation and service.
We also had dinner on two nights and were extremely impressed again with the quality of the food, its flavours and presentation. Very relaxed atmosphere and very pleasant staff.

Cons:

The setting was extremely peaceful but we could hear every movement and voices in the room overhead us. Thankfully, this did not last long and we had excellent sleep.
We were very fortunate to have beautiful weather. while there was plenty of seating in the beautiful garden and patio areas, it would be nice to have some sun loungers maybe in a more private location at rear of the building
