On the way back from vacation we planned a stopover and looked for accommodation if we were lucky. We were lucky at El Retiro and got a room even though it was full, even though it was actually reserved for the next day. The guesthouse has been lovingly renovated and offers all the services of large hotels...just a little simpler. Our room was very spacious and had a shower, toilet, a wide double bed with good mattresses, TV and WiFi as standard. We were able to eat in the restaurant with a shady beer garden in the evening (the food was good and tasty, the menu offered something for every taste, but wasn't unnaturally long like in restaurants where everything is "canned"). That means a lot here The only downside was the breakfast. Unfortunately, most of the rolls were not freshly baked and there was not enough tea at the buffet. That's why one star less. By the way, an evening walk along the Geiseltalsee makes up for the not-so-great location of the guesthouse (old GDR industrial area with an interesting historical background).If we travel across Germany again we will definitely stop here again.

We were there with the motorhome. Nice shady pitches. Very friendly service and delicious food. Sanitary facilities were clean and we could also order bread rolls there. If you want peace and quiet, this is the right place for you

An idyllic, quiet place in the middle of disused businesses, but still not far (800m) from the bike path from the lake. The next small harbor and swimming opportunity is about 4 km on the bike path.The guesthouse is clean, breakfast is very good, the kitchen is very good in the evening, friendly owner and friendly staff.If you want a secluded and quiet holiday, this is the right place for you. The only running garbage operation interrupts the long sleep for about an hour on weekday mornings. Then there is peace again.

Very nicely located and a great, lovingly prepared meal. Everything was very good, the service always had an eye on the guests despite the full terrace. We would love to come back…

Food very expensive. 14.50€ for a thin slice of meat loaf, a fried egg on top, a bit of salad as a garnish and a roll with sweet mustard. I wasn't even remotely full.

Absolutely great for a weekend, but for week trips I would probably look for something else for the money. But what you have to say is that the cleanliness is unbeatable!

We were there with the motorhome.Lots of space, meadow area without electricity or shady area with electricity. 500m to Geiseltalsee, very tasty food. We would like to come again.

A trip on the quad brought us here. We received a friendly welcome and were allowed to choose where to set up our tent.Sanitary facilities are outdated but clean. Unfortunately only one shower available.Food was very tasty, I thought it was a bit expensive but where is it not expensive now.All in all it was a nice stay. We would definitely come again.
