Convenient stop over
We checked in on a Sunday afternoon, there was a note saying where to find a phone to call reception. This was answered straight away. The key to the room was on a board by the phone and I had been told where the room was. The entry for the hotel in the website said there was a restaurant but it was closed. The only other place open to get something to eat was an unlicensed Indian restaurant. We ate there and it was excellent. The plus points, room and bed clean and comfortable, ideal for a stopover on a longer journey. Would stay again but not on a Sunday 😃

Close to Freeway
One night stay hotel conveniently close to the freeway (3km?) just outside of Karlsruhe. When you arrive late like we did parking is difficult as all on site places will be full and you need to start looking for a spot on the street, which is a very busy road. Good breakfast; to my opinion a little expensive for what the room & breakfast.

Disappointing against the other 3* hotels on trip
Self-serve check in very good. Room: Smelled damp (reported), pop up washbasin plug broken - not noticed until plug inserted and it took us at least 10 minutes to extract it using whatever tools we had to hand. When reported: "we know about it; it's being fixed today". No tea or coffee making facilities (the others did). Breakfast good.

Good value for money but don't expect a palace
Reasonable cost hotel in a very small town with few ameneties. Polite helpful staff and rooms that are functional. Common areas are a bit grubby. Good evening meal and breakfast.

Beware!
Used this place previously but the staff were definitely not up to offer a service. Paid the bill by credit card but the machine jammed and had to enter details again. Result? Duplicate charge! Had to contact Halifax to get the refund sorted which meant a wait of 45 days Most definitely will never stay again. Beware is all I can say

OK for a stopover
This was just a stop over at the end of our holiday before catching flights home. Hotel was fairly old & pockey in need of a refurb. Some sheets had holes in them. Attic room was pleasant though, with big skylights. Very narrow stairwell to get to it though - difficult to navigate with big suitcase. WiFi ok, but a bit variable in performance. Huge bathroom. Village didn't have much to offer.

Near Motorway, would stay again.
Well located, check over a wall phone due to Public Holiday but worked ok. Nice room, comfy bed, hot water. Nice enough breakfast but coffee machine broke so no points for that. Would rather see pots of proper coffee and hot milk than silly modern coffee machine which didn't work.
