"The room was very clean which made our overnight stay nice. The bed is old and you can feel the springs, anyways is good for a night. Que breakfast buffet is 15€ per adult, which I thought it was okey comparing other hotels we have stayed at in Germany, but this breakfast was not as expected, the quality is 5/10, variety 6.5/10. The restaurant next to the hotel is Italian, average 18€ per person, it was. 10/10, excellent service and tasty food. "
