In my experience, I would not recommend it. Sleeping is OK, but the rest is not good. Rooms are not clean, the restaurant is not open, and there is no breakfast. Wifi is constantly interrupted and often cannot be connected at all. Check-in is very strict. No service staff on site until 3 p.m. during the day. Windows do not close properly. Sometimes unfriendly "I have other things to do." The hotel is located right at the top of the mountain. Parking is OK, so just about 2 stars.

The staff is super nice, the place is quiet but we weren't happy with the rooms at all! Stinky, musty - disgusting! There may also be mold. On the 2nd floor I had the feeling of sleeping in a basement... Never again!

Hotel can serve as a transit hotel. Good for 1 night. No breakfast, no dinner. Very occasionally you see the manager. Beds are not made. You almost have to beg for clean towels.

No breakfast. No evening meal. Not even a fresh pint of beer or glass of wine. And only accept cash. So we stayed here for a week in the black. We had booked via booking.com Apparently while the place was actually closed. The new manager had only been working on the business since the beginning of August. So he couldn't have known that we had booked for 9 nights. The lock on the room door was broken. Closed from the inside. Couldn't open the door anymore. The telephone number on paper still belonged to the previous operator. So, at my wits' end, I called Polizei. Then they came. Together with the wife/cleaning lady they opened the door from outside. And since then things haven't worked out between us and the manager. I did get the wife's number in case of emergency. On Tuesday evening I decided to leave on Friday morning. To get to Passau you always have to take the car. Is too far from the city. The hotel is located here along the road to Salzweg. After 200m you will come across a sawmill. For the rest you have to walk all the way to Salzweg to get to civilization.
