Very friendly staff, amazing location on canal. Room was large and very comfortable. Restaurant is excellent. Had dinner there two evenings and tried five different dishes - all delicious. Some of the best food we've had in Germany. Lots of nice walking paths - along the canal, beach area, to local ruins of a monastery. You can reach the innercity of Greifswald by bus - about 25 minutes away.
This was an extremely expensive hotel for what was offered. I had a tiny room, single bed against the wall, with only a TV and hairdrier, no fridge, no coffee facilities and it cost A$250 per night (US$160, Euro 142) that is outrageous. Not recommended.

Schön am Wasser, aber….!
Schön am Wasser, aber schlecht mit dem Auto zu erreichen!
Die Matratzen, die Gardinen und die beiden Stühle im Zimmer waren relativ neu, aber alles weitere - im ganzen Haus - müsste dringend renoviert werden!
Ich habe ein sehr kleines Zimmer erhalten, mit sehr kleinen Doppelbett. Die Kissen waren sehr weich und allgemein hat es leider nicht ganz gepasst. Preis Leistung stimmt von vorne bis hinten nicht.. schade, komme nicht wider
Leider hatten wir ein Zimmer auf der Rückseite des Hauses und genau den Abzug von der Küche vorm Fenster, so dass es ständig nach Essen roch. Zimmer war sehr sauber und neue Möbel. Abstellmöglichkeit für Fahrräder vorhanden

Charmigt pensionat
Charmigt pensionat med god mat i restaurangen. Bra med gratis parkering för hotellgäster och ligger fint nere mot kanalen. Gångavstånd till fin sandstrand. Betalade för att få frukost. Den var helt godkänd. Enkelt men rent rum, lite hårda sängar. Något lyhört.
Det er et udmærket trestjernet hotel. Man savner er køleskab på værelset, som ellers var passende stort og med udsigt til kanalen. Derimod var internettet på værelset en katastrofe. Det var reelt uanvendeligt. Restauranten er helt udmærket og morgenmaden glimrende til prisen. Det var vores andet ophold, og vi kommer gerne igen, når vi skal med færgen fra Sassnitz til Rønne. Køreturen til Sassnitz varer kun ca. 5 kvarter.

Nie wieder!
Mit dem Auto nur mit mehrere Kilometern Anfahrt von Greifswald zu erreichen. Zimmer war relativ neu aber das Badezimmer unmöglich!
Loose Armaturen, kaputter Spiegel, verrotteter Fensterrahmen, keine Dusche sondern eine Badewanne direkt unter der Schräge Dachneigung. Ich konnte mit meinen 191 cm kaum duschen...und im sitzen auf dem schrägen Sitz in der kaputte Badewanne auch beschwerlich...und ohne Duschvorhang stand natürlich das ganze Badezimmer unter Wasser!
Wir hatten sogar 2 Monate vorher gebucht in der Hoffnung dass wir ein vernünftiges Zimmer bekommen könnten!
Das Frühstück haben wir nicht probiert, dennoch hatte das Hotel versucht diese auf der Rechnung abzubuchen.
Und das tolle Erlebnis für € 124,- pro Nacht...ohne Frühstück! :-(
