"Das Zimmer war sehr sauber, die Möbel (auch im Badezimmer) neu und modern. Leider gab es kein einziges Bild an der Wand, daher wirkte es etwas steril. Das Personal war sehr freundlich, beim Frühstück fehlte mir persönlich nichts. Die Zufahrt zu den Garagenparkplätzen ist eng und für längere Fahrzeuge (Kombis etc.) kaum geeignet, weil die schmale, steile Straße davor nur wenig Raum für das Rangieren lässt."

"Tolle Lage am Waldrand und auf dem Hang mit toller Sicht ins Tal. Mal eben zu Fuß in die Innenstadt ist natürlich nicht drin, das ist weit draußen. Abgesehen von den völlig unnötigen Geräuschen im Haus (Türenschlagen) ist es naturruhig, Verkehr ist nur in der Ferne leider zu hören, aber die Tiere können draußen in der Nacht auch jede Menge Lärm machen. So ist es eben. Zimmer ist klein, aber hell und freundlich und sinnvoll eingerichtet - klare Empfehlung."
