Can’t speak for other rooms. But my room in particular was on the top floor, was really small and had a detached private bathroom that was also small and inconvenient. Although the bathroom situation was disclosed, the tight spaces and inconvenient access were not. I also needed to leave very early and made the room available for most of my stay and wasn’t offered even part of the payment back. I realize that’s policy. But some flexibility considering the very early departure would have been nice. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wolfgang Jul 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Sehr gut geführtes Gäste Haus mit Parkmöglichkeit direkt vor dem Haus in einer Sackgasse. 15 min ins Zentrum.
