In january we were in this hotel, and i have to say we felt very good. Already in the hallway to the room we loved it, even though we in the evening arrived. The room was simple only ingeniously, with a big shower in the room (after showering was moisture through the great air ventilation quickly disappeared). Although the hotel is already somewhat older and therefore has signs of wear (as german hotels after a few years ago), but you can very be comfortable. The entire staff lwar always very friendly, accommodating and us despite the lack of english always tried … read more

the staff are always friendly and attempted in English everything to mediate. Experiments with a few German words were also good. We had a lot of fun. We were satisfied and could easily communicate. cleaning of the rooms and bedlinen were always OK. in our opinion there was small Dankespräsente. These are always welcome - everywhere -(if you get the proportions looks, gives you want. )A dining room with indoor and outdoor courts-view of the sea- wonderful. The buffet had something for everyone, variety was also available. Drinks with and without ice there was time of day. Everything was clean … read more
