I wanted an iced coffee and instead got an indefinable mush - probably made from a ready-made powder.

I went there because I was hiking for coffee and cake. The coffee is a bit small but good and the cake is amazing. Nice service, what more could you want.

We stayed in this guesthouse for a long weekend. We felt very comfortable and were always given very good advice on our bike routes. The owner always had an open ear. The breakfast offering was plentiful and we didn't have to go without anything. We'll be happy to come back, all the best to the owner

Review only refers to the catering offer: The advertised selection of the available offer was significantly limited. The range of pizzas, which obviously consisted of frozen goods, were not prepared properly (limp, not crispy) and were sparsely topped. We believe the price charged for this is more than unjustified. Even the loud pop pop from the radio didn't invite you to linger. The cellar beer was okay, hence 2 stars.

I went to the café with my brother for a weekend including bed and breakfast. I can only recommend this. The room was very clean and in good condition. The breakfast was absolutely fine and they always made sure that everything was still there. Small extra requests were fulfilled immediately. The staff were happy to exchange a few words with us without being intrusive. Overall a great stay in a very nice environment. The reservation process was also very pleasant with all the information you needed. I asked via email.

Excellent, cheap ice cream, BUT apparently the employees and owners were too incompetent to use the German language correctly.
