Overnight stay on the way home from conference

Overall a nice hotel. Covered parking if you arrive early enough. Outdoors needs some work but inside was a nice room that smelled freshly painted. I rated them down on comfort because the room was not air-conditioned and the heat made sleeping a challenge. Was on the ground floor so opening windows was not a good option. Bed and pillows were comfortable. Check-in was slow but they had my reservation and everything was fine. Price seemed a little high but I was passing through and do not know the area so maybe there are attractions near there to justify the price. Large bedroom with small bathroom.

Booking canceled by hotel upon arrival.

My booking was canceled at the arrival to hotel because no room was available. I had to find another place to stay 10 o'clock p.m. Personal started to call other hotels only after I asked, nevertheless European Customer protection law demand that hotel should find and offer alternative possibility for stay.

OK hotel very close to the Autobahn.

The hotel was clean and quiet, in spite of being so close to the Autobahn. I found odd the fact that the Expedia listing showed in red text "Only 1 room left" the hotel was nearly empty. What was this incorrect information posted on Expedia???

The hotel is fairly close to Rothenburg ob der Tauber, and is a good place to stay if you want a cheap weekend trip there. It's a European version of a Motel 6, located next to a convenience store and the Autobahn.

Hotel vecchio e maleodorante

La posizione dell'hotel è eccellente per chi viaggia ma la camera è veramente terribile. All'esterno l'hotel è vecchio, non so da dove abbiano preso la foto mostrata in recensione. Il letto scomodo e la colazione (da pagare a parte) scarsa. Non consigliato

Sauber und zweckmäßig

Da ist noch Luft nach oben...vor Ort stellte ich fest, dass die Rezeption nicht besetzt ist, sondern ich eine Handynummer anrufen muss um einen Pin zu bekommen über den ich die Zimmerkarte erhalte. Info darüber oder gleich Pin per Mail hatte das Einchecken vereinfacht. Mit der Karte könnte ich eine Eingangstür öffnen, die andere war unverschlossen! NoGo! Die Info: "Barrierefreies Zimmer" ist nur eine Option für WG Zimmer oder nur auf die Zimmer an sich bezogen. Es gibt keinen Aufzug für das OG. Servicekontakt am Telefon war sehr freundlich, Zimmer einfach und sauber. Tankstelle und Mac direkt Gegenüber. Kein Romantikhotel oder zweckmäßig für eine autobahnnahe übernachtung

sehr nette Empfangsdame, ideal für Kurzaufenthalt

Das Hotel liegt auf dem Gelände eines Autohofes, direkt hinter dem Hotel kann man wunderschön über Felder spazieren gehen. Leider wird die Bundesstraße auch nachts intensiv genutzt, dadurch ist schlafen bei offenem Fenster nicht so komfortabel. Mein Zimmer war nicht mit einer Klimaanlage ausgestattet. Das Frühstück war (coronabedingt) einfach, aber das Personal ist sehr freundlich und man bekommt auch zB Rührei frisch zubereitet. Für einen Kurzaufenthalt ist es okay, in meinen Augen kein Urlaubshotel.
