Väl godkänt för övernattning på genomresa!!

Vi kom ca kl 17.30, och det verkade som om 1 person skötte både restaurang och incheckning. Hon var uppenbart väldigt stressad. Kanske en tillfällighet, just igår ?? Fullt godkända sängar, litet men fungerande badrum. Jättebra frukost !! Vi är nöjda med övernattningen!!

Very lovely place

This was such a cute hotel. The staff was very friendly, and our family said the breakfast was very good. If we had one issue, it was that they are not staffed until your check-in time, so don't expect to be able to check in early.

Agradable y tranquilo lugar. Considerar solo si en época cálida como la de verano el calor se siente en la habitación y no cuenta con aire acondicionado.

Could be less the amount

If you’re planning for a low key stay then this hotel is for you . We love walking around downtown so the location is not convenient for us . The tiny room is NOT comfortable moving around and placing “stuff “ and the amount we paid for is not worth even with great customer service . Extra pay for breakfast is GOOD!

oHotel entspricht nicht dem Preis

Wir waren zum wiederholten Mal in diesem Hotel. Leider war der Empfang wieder nicht besonders freundlich. Das Zimmer ist sehr klein für den Preis und das Bad miniklein! Wir haben es nur wieder gewählt weil man abends so schön draussen an der Lahn sitzt zum Essen.

Hotel mit sehr unterschiedlichen Zimmern

Wir waren zum wiederholten Male hier, hatten beim ersten Mal ein superschönes Zimmer mit grossem Bad. Danach immer schlechtere Zimmer und dieses Mal wohl das schlechteste im ganzen Haus. Zimmer klein und Bad mini mit einer Duschtasse wie in einem minderwertigen Hotel. Dies aber zum gleichen Preis wie immer. Angeblich war bei unserer Buchung vor fast 3 Monaten bereits alles ausgebucht. Auf der Terrasse hatten wir eine Woche im voraus einen Tisch bestellt. Dieser war nicht nur nicht reserviert, sondern hatte auch einen minderwertigen Platz. Nur der Ober war sehr freundlich.
