Very good location, right in the center and within the walls. The rooms are dated and not perfect, however nothing is missing, so it is fine for short stays.They gave us the opportunity to put the bikes indoors. Thank you

At least the hotel is not recommended, the rooms are small and quite loud in the evenings (some ventilation can be heard, but not from the bathroom). Nothing has been done in the rooms for years and everything is old, especially the bathroom, which is only suitable for the most necessary things.The carpet doesn't seem to have been changed in years and is really disgustingly dirtyAll in all, far too expensive for over 200 euros per night in a double room

Hello everyone,This year I was on vacation at the Gasthof Stift. Unfortunately, the 2 night stay wasn't particularly enjoyable.The room is from older decades and could be renovated, just like the grass-green carpet. The bathrooms remind me of ship's berths, are very old and urgently need to be renovated. The light in our bathroom didn't work until the man at the reception asked us to bang on the wall to get the light to come back on. He said that several people have already complained about it, but he doesn't want to install a new one yet. In addition, the shower was dirty upon arrival and showering in the dark was more than challenging, especially for older guests.There were also brown stains everywhere on the carpet that had not been cleaned up. The curtains were also cut, which I think needs to be replaced. The televisions were also a bit antique ;)The absolute highlight, however, was the breakfast. This runs from 7:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. When we arrived at 9 a.m., which is more than that, everything had already been eaten and not refilled. In addition, the buffet was very manageable and justified the €12 per person in the smallest way. When we asked the waitress, who was alone, if she could still make scrambled eggs, she replied that she was alone and had to do the washing up at the same time and didn't actually have time to refill the scrambled eggs. After asking if they could stock up on more rolls and croissants since everyone had already left at 9 a.m., she said that she had baked everything and didn't have any left. I honestly ask myself: is this my problem and how can that be, since the inn wasn't particularly fully booked at the time. In addition, in my opinion, the service was unfriendly, there was no good morning, just nothing.The location is about 5 minutes from the lake, which turned out to be convenient.In general, I would unfortunately not recommend this hotel due to the points mentioned above.

I can't rate the room because I was only there to eat and my dumplings with the roast pork were ice cold. Unfortunately, I can only give one star

Old building in need of renovation, but still okay. Not a kitchen though. Frozen goods and finished products and reordering not possible. However, conditions were again very nice and friendly.
