This is an old but lovely property, the room could get an update. For us as a family with two young kids it has everything we needed. The pool was great and open from 8-22, so perfect. Great value for the price

Good accomodition if you have more than one child. Small clean rooms. Nice pool, but busy with aquayoga. Tiny village. Good bakery below the hotel.

Simple facilities
The hotel room has no WIFI coverage at all.
Can only go downstairs for internet, room facilities are very basic. The restaurant downstairs is good.
Not truly family-friendly – disappointing stay.
We booked this hotel because it claimed to be family-friendly, but it was a big letdown. The pool was out of order (without any warning), and with it, the sauna was unavailable too — a major reason we chose this place.
The “playground” they promised in the listing? Not at the hotel. It’s somewhere in the village, which isn’t the same thing.
Our room faced the main street, making it noisy at night, and the blackout curtains left a huge 50 cm gap — so forget about proper sleep.
If you’re looking for a relaxing, family-friendly stay, I’d recommend looking elsewhere.

Staff was friendly. Room was clean. Breakfast was ok. They are really trying but the room we were in was not in great condition, walls were run down somewhat dirty looking, bedding was older and the shower floor was partially rusty. Our room looked liked an older run down version of their website pictures which is a shame because the staff were very friendly.
Das 4-Bett-Zimmer war in Ordnung. Die Matratzen sind sehr weich und tw. durchgelegen.
Badezimmer ist gut, frische Handtücher wurden täglich zur Verfügung gestellt.
Das optional dazugebuchte Frühstück ist für den Preis komplett in Ordnung. Der Raum ist - in meinem Augen - ein wenig wie eine Bahnhofshalle. (Da auch die "Rezeption" inkludiert ist)
Für unseren Aufenthalt (2. Mal) war alles zu unsrer Zufriedenheit.
Man kann jederzeit einchecken, was uns extrem geholfen hat.
Preis-Leistung passt vollkommen.
Super fint hotel
Ikke den bedste dessert i restauranten, den smagte gammel og isen smagte af fryser, som om den havde ligger der alt for længe
Der var desværre ingen varm vand på afrejsedagen, så man kunne ikke komme i bad, med mindre man ville i iskoldt bad
Der var kun en udenlandsk kvinde der ikke talte tysk eller engelsk, men hun forstod at der ingen varm vand var igennem google translate
men ellers var alt super fint
Mooi net hotel met ruime schone kamers en een zwembad bij het hotel, in een rustig dorpje

Mi experiencia no fue lo que esperaba y lamentablemente fue decepcionante por varias razones.
Elegimos este hotel principalmente por la alberca, pero al llegar nos informaron que estaba cerrada por orden sanitaria. Esto no fue comunicado previamente ni por el hotel ni a través de Expedia, lo cual fue muy frustrante porque era el motivo principal de nuestra reserva.
Además, la conexión WiFi en nuestra habitación era prácticamente inexistente. No pudimos conectarnos y tuvimos que usar datos móviles en roaming, lo que generó un gasto adicional.
Respecto al desayuno, en Expedia se indicaba un precio de 12.50 € por adulto y 5 € por niño. Sin embargo, en el establecimiento nos informaron que el precio era de 15 € por adulto y 8 € por niño. Esta diferencia no fue explicada claramente y genera desconfianza.
También tuvimos dificultades de comunicación, ya que nadie del personal hablaba inglés, solo alemán, lo que complicó cualquier intento de resolver las situaciones mencionadas.
En cuanto a la habitación, el baño no estaba en condiciones adecuadas de limpieza. Había suciedad proveniente de la cañería y restos de jabón seco acumulado en el lavamanos.
En general, faltó transparencia, mantenimiento y una atención más resolutiva. Esperábamos una experiencia acorde al precio pagado y no fue así.

Fint hotell, hyggelig rom. Stille og rolig område.
Das Hotel ist ruhig gelegen. Man kann sich in Ruhe erholen und bei einen Besuch im Restaurant den Abend ausklingen lassen. Preise und Angebot vollkommen in Ordnung. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Auch der Sprung in den Pool lädt zum gemütlichen Schwimmen ein.
Kamers waren erg gehorig we hadden ook nog eens de pech dat we onder de trap sliepen dus elke keer als iemand de trap op en af liep werden we wakker. Het zwembad was cloudi en de service in het restaurant was bagger. Ze zijn heel langszaam, ik moest op begevevn moment een half uur wachten op de rekening en uiteindelijk na een half uur kwam ze naar ons toe dat we vooraan moesten betalen?? en ze waren met veel te weinig mensen. Het eten was wel lekker. Voor dat ene nachtje wat ik verbleef was het okee maar ik zou dit NOOIT meer boeken.

Dörflich gelegener Ort, neben einer Kirche gelegen. Die Betten haben sehr weiche Matratzen, Zimmerservice kam nicht zum sauber machen trotz Schild an die Türe hängen, wir mussten selbst Toilettenpapier an der Rezeption holen. Die Zimmer sind zweckmäßig eingerichtet und in Ordnung teils schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Poolbereich war sauber und ordentlich. Das Frühstück war okay aber Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis war zu unangemessen. Das Essen im Restaurant war top.
Für einen geringen Preis bekommt man ein schönes Zimmer und kann sogar Pool und Sauna nutzen. Das Personal ist außerordentlich freundlich und zuvorkommend.
