Delicious Breakfast Spread

“Each morning during my stay, I enjoyed a fantastic buffet breakfast featuring a range of homemade breads, smoked salmon, yogurt, and even hearty porridge. This variety ensured I was well-fed for my day ahead, saving me the trouble and expense of finding lunch later. The communal dining space made it easy to chat with fellow travelers while indulging in these local specialties!” view full review

Cozy and Comfy Rooms

“The double room I stayed in offered a comfortable setup with fluffy pillows that allowed for restful nights. I felt well-rested after each night, thanks to the nice bedding and cozy environment. Plus, with minimal noise from outside, it felt like a tranquil retreat after a busy day exploring.” view full review

Convenient Shared Kitchen

“Having access to the shared kitchen was a game-changer for my stay. It allowed me to prepare some light meals and enjoy snacks without having to rely solely on restaurants. The well-equipped kitchen was clean and inviting, and it was great to see other guests also utilizing the space to create their own meals.” view full review

Cute Community Feel

“The communal dining area was an excellent feature that enhanced my experience. Sitting together with other guests, sharing stories over breakfast, and even enjoying a shot of schnapps offered by the host created a warm sense of community that is often missing in larger hotels. It truly felt like a home away from home!” view full review
