No card payment. It would be preferable if you let know your customers about that .This was really disappointing as it was Saturday and we had no cash with us.

Can only speak for the restaurant - great to see it reopened after many years. We've all been waiting for it to happen. Now apparently run by the same guys who run the 1744/3 Kronen just around the corner, and they are doing very well.Good, honest, well-prepared food (what one might call "gut Bürgerlich") at very fair prices. Nothing much for veggies/vegans, though (yet). This venture looks promising, though.

Have stayed here several times as have family and friends. Basic but clean accommodations at an excellent rate. Sylvie and staff are first rate and tend to every need. Food in the Gasthaus is excellent and they offer good beers from the tap (Fass). Location cannot be beat as it is in the market square and close to everything old town has to offer. If you are fortunate to be there the first two weeks of December and get a front facing room you will have the sights and smells of the Christmas market right out your window. The noise level was not an issue as it shuts down at 10:00 and even before then the noise was negligible. Highly recommend!
