An older, very large hotel. Rooms are very rustic decor, probably 20 years ago. Mattresses from the vorkriegszeit, as well as the badehinrichtung. No hotel for disabled guests - stairs where the eye can see. Dining rooms remember at bahnhoffskantine. No service at the tables, the waiters are frightful overburdened. Food very simple quality and also very modest selection. The whole is not for families recommendable - the few high chairs are even zusammengebastelte monster (if you get). To lots of guests to few pools. I will this hotel never for a one time vacation recommending except if you continuously … read more
