The location of the hotel is very good, also parking in front of the hotel. Unfortunately there have been spiders and other insects in the room (maybe because of the garden?) and one towel was dirty. Breakfast was ok.

It was a disaster. In my first message I asked the hotel to reserve a room with 2 separate beds on the ground floor or 1st floor (because of my walking disability). When we arrived at the hotel, the key to room number 10 was waiting in the box. We found the room on the 2nd floor, which was also the attic. Wednesday was a very hot day and we found a fan in the room, but no air conditioning. It felt like 35 degrees Celsius. The skylights were closed because the sun was shining so strongly. I called the manager to ask him to assign us another room. He said that the hotel was fully booked, but that there was a romantic room in the basement. Not knowing anything, we accepted the offer. Although the manager warned us that there was no window in the room, we checked in and went into town for a walk and lunch. When we returned in the evening, we realized the extent of the room drama. We discovered that the room was nothing more than a slightly converted laundry room where the house's drains met. The room was cool, but quite musty. The room had neither a table nor chairs, but there was a large wooden bathtub. It was wet inside and not pleasant to be raw. There was also a drain right next to the bed. There was no door to the toilet, just a jute curtain. The water in the sink drained very slowly. The air conditioning was very loud and we only got "fresh air" when we opened the door to the hallway. There was only one light switch. Common for the bathroom and the room. It was impossible t

Der Frühstücksraum war abgeschlossen, nach 20 Minuten Wartezeit wurde aufgeschlossen, das Frühstück ist billig, es gibt Reste von den Vorgängern. Die Lage ist gut, das ist das einzig Positive

Nie wieder

Wir waren vor 3 Jahren schon einmal Im Hotel Kraus. Der Unterschied war erschreckend. Der Innenhof war runtergekommen. Im "Fahrrad Schuppen" mußten wir uns ersteinmal Platz schaffen, Abschließen war eine Luftnummer. Das Bad war schlimm anzuschauen Schimmel in den Fugen, der Duschschlauch schon viele Tage kaputt. Scharfkantige Haltebleche von früheren nützlichen Dingen waren noch vorhanden.Ein abgebauter Rauchmelder rundet den schlechten Eindruck ab. Sehr schade der heutige Anblick! PS.das Toastbrot zum Frühstück war verschimmelt!

Hotel ist nicht zu empfehlen

Aufgrund eines schweren Gewitters vor Mêlnik wolte ich eine verspätete Anreise, gegen 19.30 Uhr telefonisch mitteilen. Ich bin Fernradfahrer, 82 Jahre alt. Auf mindestens 10 Anrufversuche keine Meldung des Hotels. Am Hotel angekommen musste ich mehrfach klingeln, bis durch Summer die Tür geöffnet wurde. Im Hotel kein Personal, obwohl 24 Std. Rezeption angezeigt war. In der Hoteleingangstür stehend, damit sie nicht zuging, musste ich wieder viele Anrufe tätigen, bis sich jemand meldete, der nach meinem Namen fragte und einen Codes für den Zimmerschlüssel Safe mitteilte. Vom Ankommen bis zum erlangen des Zimmerschlüssels sind 50 Minuten vergangen. So etwas habe ich bei vielen Radtouren, die ich, seit ich Rentner bin, unternommen habe, noch nicht erlebt.

Nedslidt men fungerer, det var nu heller ikke så dyrt at bo der.. Varmepumpe holder en vågen, da den larmer en del… sengetøj passer ikke til sengen, så lagen flytter sig, så man ligger uden, og så ren er madrassen heller ikke…bruser skal holdes i hånden, da beslag på vægen ikke holder den fast og så løber vandet forbi forhænget.. meget fodkoldt, så det kræver fodtøj at opholde sig på værelset med dette flisegulv Morgenmad er også sparsomt, men som skrevet, det koster heller ikke mange penge at bo her..
