Booked the hotel for Saturday. When we arrived we were faced with locked doors.“Hotel and restaurant permanently closed, all locks have been replaced”The owner could still be reached by phone and email. This unreliable behavior is unacceptable for travelers and is simply the last resort.

Not very pleasant for the price. There was dust everywhere in the room and cobwebs on the lamps. The shower is moldy and the shower head is absolutely full of rust and mold. Heating totally rusted.

So of course you have to say that you can't expect gourmet food for 15 euros. There were four of us there.But that was too much for us. The lentils were a tasteless mush, neck steaks = shoe soles, certainly not fresh, I didn't try Königsberger meatballs at all, they threw strange bubbles, potato salad from the bucket was sour and old, red cabbage was inedible, some kind of meat cakes that were floating in the water bath, oven slips, but no vanilla sauce, the drink dispenser was broken, there were bottles lying around that everyone was touching, so didn't drink anything. Even the fries tasted like stale fat. You could go on forever, not to mention the ambience and cleanliness.Our conclusion: If you would like to take a jungle test, this is the place for you

First of all, the food was okay for the price. For 14.99 you know that you have to compromise on quality. But it was all very bland and not really inviting. The heating was probably defective. We all sat at dinner, freezing, wearing our winter jackets. A big no-go. The drinks machine wasn't working either. Bottles of Cola Fanta and Sprite were available to choose from. Once the bottle of cola was gone, that was all. Cups and plates were partially chipped. You can really hurt yourself if you don't notice it right away. The cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired. The food is still stuck to the buffet, probably from breakfast, and the splash guard could use some cleaning. The tablecloths were stained, and the paper sets that lay on them also had clear signs of wear. The cutlery wasn't really clean either. The plates were ice cold, so after a short time the food was at best lukewarm.Maybe charge €5 more for the buffet, then it might be enough for a cleaner.For us it was a unique guest appearance. It's a shame, we used to enjoy going there often.

We were 4 adults and we were all very disappointed. January 20th and the place is almost unheated. There were no salads, Maultaschen were also non-existent, string sausages with the lentils were also missing, but mustard was there. Instead of spaetzle there was noodles that were cold and partly dried out. The fries weren't really full of fat. Most of the food was cold. 14.99 euros for the buffet is not expensive and you shouldn't expect too much, but what is on offer should at least be of good quality.It should also be mentioned that there was no one who understood German when we arrived at 6 p.m.

We were in the restaurant there and I was positively surprised (for the price). For €15 there is an extensive Swabian buffet including salad, dessert, soft drinks and coffee. The food was very tasty, unfortunately I couldn't try everything, at some point my stomach gets full. The only negative thing I saw was that some of the salad had brown edges, the rest was good.

Sorry, but it no longer has anything in common with a restaurant like it once was.For my husband's birthday, I wanted to invite him there for dinner. I was so disappointed 😞Cold food, no salad, the salad dressing was like water, the food in the counter was cold, the noodles dried out, the drinks machine was broken, the ice cream was watery. Kitchen didn't seem hygienic. Spooky protection over the food should have been wiped down a long time ago.Since I worked in this industry for many years, I know it well, that's not allowed!! When the WKD stops by, the shop is closed
