    good stay but noisy nights

    The breakfast featured a fantastic assortment of fresh local cheeses and breads that were nice. Staff members were attentive and even shared a butterzopf recipe, showing their commitment to guest satisfaction. The cozy room was impeccably clean. I appreciated the efforts.

    The nearby beer garden and church bells made restful sleep difficult.

    charming location
    excellent breakfast
    kind staff
    parking issues

    The location across from St Mauritius Church offered charm, but be prepared for the bells ringing throughout the night. The breakfast spread had amazing local cheeses, yogurt, and fresh bread-definitely a highlight. I loved how the staff shared a butterzopf recipe after noticing my enthusiasm for the bread. The room was cozy and clean. Parking can be tricky. Be careful of the local restrictions to avoid towing. A great stay with minor inconveniences.

    outdated bathroom
    basic amenities

    Excellent cozy room with a good breakfast with local cheese and bread. Staff members were particularly helpful, offering hiking tips and even a recipe when they noticed my interest in their delicious bread. The proximity to a noisy beer garden and frequent church bells made restful sleep a challenge, especially with windows open. Basic room amenities could use an update despite the cleanliness.

    family-friendly activities
    noisy environment

    We enjoyed our stay with our kids and two dogs. The breakfast spread was fantastic, with local goodies like fresh cheese and pastries. The staff was eager to help us plan family outings, including a nice hike nearby. Rooms were comfortable and cozy.

    My wife says that the noise from the beer garden kept us up at night.
