4/10 Poor

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
We couldn't hide our disappointment when, on the morning of our first stay, we realized that:
The hotel markets itself with pictures of a swimming pool/spa, which in reality is just a small jacuzzi and a small sauna. Both parts were only available during the day hours, and only by request. However, it was not possible to have the "Spa" and sauna open during our stay.
The pictured beach / beach promenade was located several kilometers away and where the beach mostly was private. Access to the beach was via one road only, all other roads were private and closed to non-resident holidaymakers
By the way, the shower in our room did not work without critical water level on the entire floor.
Kudos to the hotel's well-stocked breakfast buffet.
Charming city, and the most excursion destinations within a maximum of 1.5 hours' drive
The city museum (Stadt- Und Bädermuseum Bad Doberan Möckelhaus) is definitely also worth a visit. Likewise is the impressive church (Doberaner Münster - Ev.-Luth. Kirchengemeinde Bad Doberan)
The train / narrow-gauge track is a pleasant feature in the street scene. However, the trip to the beach was wasted due to access conditions / and hotels' private ownership of the beach
All in all a nice stay and I hope our comments don't scare away future holidaymakers. We can, after all, recommend the hotel and its central location.
