A great base for walks in the Black Forest, but also for visiting Freiburg (the tram stops in front of the door and runs often and quickly into the city). The charm of the guest house lies in the old-fashioned - but well-maintained - furnishings and the friendliness of the owners. Our room had everything you needed. Toilets and showers in the hallway, clean and always one free. The building is a bit noisy (ear plugs are supplied), but this did not bother us. We had a view of greenery and could hear the stream, wonderful. We would love to come back again!

Very simple guesthouse, but solid and clean (even if it smells musty in the stairwell). The tram in front of the house doesn't bother you at all because the track bed is grassy. The furnishings of the room are very out of date, which is something you have to like.

Traditional style hotel/guesthouse, a welcome change from the usual hotel chains we visit. Clean, spacious room with a small balcony and sink. Several toilets and bathrooms across the hall. …

Hearty, lovingly furnished hotel with charm. The toilets with showers on each floor were sufficient and well furnished. 👍👍👍The stream gently whispered a lullaby to us, so we didn't need the earplugs that were provided as a precaution and otherwise it was pleasantly quiet and relaxing! 😴We also liked the in-house parking lot, the WiFi, and the optional breakfast, although the coffee on offer was very, very heart-friendly...🥱All in all we were VERY pleasantly surprised, thank you very much!!!

Secluded in nature but right across the street from the tram. Very good location and cozy atmosphere. Room was right above a small stream, feel asleep to the sound of water and birds. Probably the best night of sleep I've gotten in Germany. Such a gem of place to stay!

Good transport links, plenty of parking spaces, friendly owner, room only had a shared bathroom, although this was already mentioned when making the reservation, everything was clean and tidy, 1 point deducted for the vibration on the headboard of my bed when someone moved above me, The top headboard of the bed vibrates, which was a bit annoying.
