We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The lady at the desk was so professional and so friendly. We loved being able to walk to German village. We had a lovely dinner. The pool is very nice. It’s right on high Street, which is a busy street, but that’s just fine. We appreciated the very good ground coffee machine in the lobby.

The room was very clean and comfortable. A lot of variety in the breakfast buffet.The staff at the front desk was very accommodating from fixing a glitch in the bill to bringing me a hair dryer in minutes after I called to let them know our room's hairdryer was missing. Overall, a very pleasant stay

Hotel itself was ok, but listed as having a laundry area and it did not and was one the reasons I picked the hotel along with free breakfast. We do travel ball and needed to wash uniforms and then the last day we left at 7 and still no breakfast when it was suppose to be open at 630. The drain in the bathroom sink was stuck
