The room was even better than I imagined it would be, so we were extremely happy. The staff were generally helpful. The hotel was easy to find and has plenty of parking. Will definitely return whenever I am next in the area. …

Whilst the hotel possesses a few positive aspects such as a spacious bathroom and a friendly bar man, our experience was, on the whole, negative. Many aspects of the provision available were found to be lacking: the hotel felt dirty, the breakfast was poor and unhygienic, and the host is cold. For the price, we have found far better options in Rhineland Palatinate elsewhere and would seek to avoid another stay here with the hotel in its current state.

From beginning to end of our two night stay, we witnessed no friendliness or desire to make people feel welcome and at home.The lady in charge was very unfriendly, barely speaking loud enough to be heard. On arrival, it felt like she couldn't wait to be rid of us to the room.I had booked two rooms, but ended up with a family room with a lounge area. We only had one bathroom, as a result, but paid the price of two separate rooms. The two bedrooms were outdated and dirty and dusty, with spiders' webs. There were three mugs for four of us and two glasses. It all felt a bit hit and miss. Some of the bed linen and towels had stains on them. It all felt like it needed a bit of tlc.The breakfast was also poor. There was no butter, just a tub of margarine for guests to share and no breakfast tea. Everything on the table was sticky and I just lost my appetite. We didn't bother with breakfast on the second morning.The room was hugely overpriced for what it was - we paid 300 euros for two nights, two adults and two children. We've stayed in a lot of hotels in Germany and this was by far our worst experience. We would not return and we would not recommend it either. However, the bar man on our first night was very nice.We stayed in a lovely hotel near Trier at the start of our holiday which was cheaper, much, much nicer and had staff who seemed to want to work in a hotel. The breakfast and food here was also outstanding.

Surprised by the quality of this hotel. Only stayed 1 night but the room was spacious and the bathroom was modern and clean. Had a nice balcony although it overlooked the road. …

We stayed as a family of four for four nights in a very spacious family room with breakfast included for a very reasonable price. Location was also very convenient for the motorway to visit family and friends nearby and also for exploring the Rhineland. Our hosts were friendly, breakfast was plentiful and room was comfortable. We didn't get to try the restaurant unfortunately as we were mostly out & about but it looked welcoming and menu looked good.Also talked to one family at breakfast who had regularly stayed there as a good stopover point. Would recommend.

Breakfast, parking, cleanliness, friendliness, and basic hygiene were all sub-standard. Along with very thin walls which were hard to deal with during the night, there were uncomfortable beds and extremely slow wifi. Stains were found on pillows and towels and dirt and dust was everywhere. The breakfast was not hygienic and appeared very unappealing. Overall a negative experience and environment, very overpriced for what it is.

Our room had been recently renovated and far exceeded our expectations. Large tub, dual sinks, comfortable beds and a late check-in was not an issue. Breakfast was included and was very ample. Service was excellent! A little out of the way, but great value if you are staying in the area!
