“What a beautiful little hotel. Staff was very friendly. Room was huge and very clean and they actually set it up for 4 people. The restaurant was very nice and food was amazing. Breakfast was very good and served bright and early. We had an electric rental car and the even had 2 spots to charge from. I would love to stay longer here if we ever find ourselves in Germany again, 1 night was not long enough.”

“The staff was very friendly, the room was large and when we rented a room for 4 people they made sure there were additional towels for everyone and that all beds were set up and made. It was very beautiful scenery and the hotel was cute and clean. The restaurant was SO GOOD. The absolute best gravy I've ever had.We all wish we had more than one day. Thank you!”
