We were visiting Berlin for a couple of days, but had our flight back to Boston from Hamburg and were looking for a place to stay a bit closer to Hamburg. We booked the hotel at about 10 pm while still in Berlin. The hotel was slightly over 1.5 hrs north of Berlin. After a pleasant experience boking via Orbitz, we called the hotel to inform we will be arriving late. Unfortunately, I was not able to communicate in German. After a couple of attempts, I texted arrival time using google translate. After we took the exit off A24, we had to travel deserted road for a few miles (it was almost midnight). Barring just a couple of cars that passed by there were no signs of life. With my wife and 15 year old child, I was a bit concerned where I was headed to. It was very quite all around when we arrived at the hotel. I tried calling the hotel number, which was apparently forwarded to the owners number. Fortunately a guest (who could speak English) stepped out for a smoke. The hotel owner soon arrived r and guided us to a nice comfortable 2 room suite ( I think we got an upgrade!). He was en elderly gentleman and was able to convey where breakfast will be served in the morning etc. It was well past midnight by now. We got up in the morning and enjoyed the breakfast and headed to Hamburg airport. The hotel had a very nice backyard with a colorful fishes swimming in a pond. We would have liked to spend more time exploring the rustic neighborhood.

Sehr angenehme Atmosphäre, sehr freundliches Personal. Das Restaurant ist gemütlich und die Speisekarte deckt viele Geschmäcker ab. Das Frühstücksbuffet ist völlig ausreichend. Ich fand es übertrieben, daß bei einem Aufenthalt über zwei Nächte die Handtücher gewechselt werden. Ich kann dieses Haus nur weiterempfehlen.

Hyggelig kro på landet med sødt og hjælpsomt personale. Et skønt sted med fantastisk morgenmad og dejlig veltilberedt aftensmad. Deres hjemmelavede øl var rigtig godt. Vi kommer igen, næste gang vi kører til Slovakiet!
