Weinhaus Uhle
Very nice room. Excellent restaurant in the middle of the city. The only challenge was the receptionist. I'm not sure she likes her job.

Pension am Schloss
The late check in (past 7pm) was at the bar. It created an interesting reception. Pleasantly surprised with the spacious and clean accommodation though. Check out during their usual hours was much more what I expected.
