Our hair dryer was as if a hundred years old and the smell of weed in the garden, but for the price, the place was okay.We used the booking app where it was written that you can leave until eleven and breakfast is included in the price. Wrong. When we went to the breakfast room, the employee called us away and said that we had not ordered breakfast for extra money. Since the food selection looked very bad anyway, we just bought a cheaper, better meal at the store. When it was a little before ten o'clock we were told that we had to leave. When we tried to use the self check-out system, we couldn't do it and there was no one at the reception to help, so we just left the keys on the table for them. Then, when we had long gone, the employee called us, but he didn't understand that we were no longer in our room. A few minutes later, a Russian man called, who tried to communicate with us in Russian, but since we did not understand, he swore in Russian and hung up.You can sleep for one night, but it is not recommended.

I called Mr. Rudi in the middle of the night because I had a very long drive and all the hotels in the area no longer accepted check-in before 8 a.m. Mr. Rudi sent me the location and all other details via WhatsApp including pictures, so I had no problems. The room was very clean, the bed was lovingly made and well equipped with water, kettle and coffee. Even disposable razors and toothbrushes are on site. My room had a balcony with furniture. It is very central, which is why it is quite noisy. A garage for the vehicle is available free of charge.Unfortunately I had to leave very early otherwise I would have tried breakfast. But for business travelers it is an optimal hotel with breakfast.

Hotel am Schlosspark is an okay place with convenient parking, which was a plus for my business trip. The room was decent and had a balcony, but once again, no fridge. I don’t understand why German hotels consistently lack fridges. The self-service check-in and check-out process was quite simple, but the main door was very difficult to open; it requires a lot of force, which was frustrating.The biggest issue was that during my 3-day stay, no housekeeper cleaned the room, which is absolutely unacceptable. They didn't even take the garbage I left outside the room. This is a huge no-no and the reason for my 3-star rating.
