The food was delicious, and the two men who prepared it were very friendly. The location is perfect anyway; it can't be beat. Even with other groups, you don't feel cramped. We'll be back. The proximity to the train station is helpful.

In guter Erinnerung meine Schwester und ich mit meinen 2 Hunden, haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt in einem tollen Zimmer mit See-Sicht übernachten zu dürfen. Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen und wurde sogar nachgefragt ob alles ok wäre. Unsere "Sonderwünsche" wurden erfüllt. Uns bleibt der Aufenthalt in schöner Erinnerung. Vielen Dank!
