The room was really nice and the bathroom was very clean. In the room was also an Air conditioner which worked quite nicely. The hotel is in a really quiet place. The staff was incredibly friendly. And it was very helpful that the time for breakfast was written on the little envelope of the room card. And the breakfast was really nice. They had a coffee machine with the usual coffee variations but also hot chocolate and hot water for tea. Because of a very short stay I sadly wasn't able to enjoy the golf course, but It did look nice and maybe next time I get to play a bit.

    Fantastic stop off for one night. Location was really easy to reach from the Autobahn, and the prebooked secure parking was a bonus. For a budget hotel, the reception is well presented and the rooms are big, comfortable and great value. Made to feel welcome on arrival. Would highly recommend.

    The location was excellent, beside the Rhine and just a few minutes walk from the central railway station, the cathedral and on the edge of the old town. It was within walking distance of most of the things we wanted. It was a basic budget hotel with a small reception above a restaurant but it had everything we needed. Our room was clean and comfortable. The staff we met were very friendly and helpful.
