“Can't beat the price on this hotel! Air conditioned rooms and included breakfast!”
“Real German experience. On a hunting trip with 25 other hunters. Wonderful food and excellent accomodations.”
“Quaint little Inn right on the canal. Has a nice patio that overlooks the canal. Food was very tasty and service was fast. I would have given 5 stars but our waiter was quite strange. He had pretended not to speak English and then when he found out we were from Canada he spoke English all of a sudden. Very good price and an excellent value overall. Rooms were tidy though a bit hot.”
“Nice food options during Christmas. Quite old interior but very nice staff.”
“The location is great, the waitress was very friendly and professional. Now they only offer a buffet for 24 euros. Opens at 18:00. Drinks are a bit expensive (0.5 beer for 5.2) This is one of the few options to have a reasonable meal.”
“Despite the many tourists floating in here, the service is really very nice, friendly, fast and professional. Always. The food is really great and you don't have to wait too long even if you arrive with many people. Also the view when sitting outside on the terrace is really nice and very relaxing. I'd really love to stay at the hotel one day.”
