Fijn verblijf gehad in de bossen.
Pros:

Heel erg lekker en uitgebreid ontbijt. Zeer vriendelijk personeel bij de receptie, het ontbijt en de housekeeping. Het meisje achter de bar was ook erg gezellig. Nam de tijd voor een praatje. Goede parkeergelegenheid.

Cons:

Ietwat gedateerde kamer. Geen airco. Was overigens brandschoon.

Graag info vooraf dat genoemde faciliteit niet voorhanden is
Pros:

de kamer
de bedden
vriendelijk receptiepersoneel

Cons:

heel erg tegen dat de sauna gesloten was wegens onderhoud-tenminste dat stond op een briefje op de deur- in feite was hij al 7 maanden stuk en daar waren wij niet van op de hoogte gebracht terwijl wij juist dit hotel uitgekozen hadden om na de vierdaagse wandelingen onze spieren warm en los te maken in de sauna. Hadden wij dit geweten hadden wij de kans gehad ern andere accomodatie te bieken. Erg teleurstellend!

Schönes, sauberes Hotel mitten im Grünen
Pros:

Das Zimmer hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Nichts besonderes, aber alles was man braucht. Das Frühstück war sehr gut, aber mit € 22,00 pro Person nicht gerade günstig.
