Read moreUpon arrival, just to check in to our room, we had to wait in the same line as people trying to get tables in the restaurant. Having to wait in line for a half hour was a bit ridiculous. The young lady that checked us in was very nice, despite my frustration of waiting so long. I knew it wasn’t her fault. Just a terrible system for checking in.
The room is great, very cozy yet spacious.
Later, going to the restaurant, despite having reservations…had to wait in line again. Same young lady that checked us in also sat us. Again, she was friendly.
Our waitress was very friendly and willing to accommodate my inability to speak German. She was very friendly and polite. Here is the rub…it took over 45 minutes to get or food after ordering. Even though the restaurant was busy, this was ridiculous.
I ordered “Bull in the Ring, Smash Burger” my girlfriend ordered the “Smoke Pulled Beef Burger”. Her pulled beef was good. However, there was nothing redeeming about my burger.
My burger certainly didn’t have smash burger patties…if so, they forgot to smash them. They seemed like regular old patties to me. I ordered “Day of the Dead” sauce to add to my burger. This is the ONLY sauce on the menu with 3 chilies next to its name. Yet, even by German standards, the sauce had zero heat. It was more sweet than spicy. Almost like runny ketchup. It was so overly disappointing. The only flavor that stood out on my burger was the massive amount of cheddar cheese on it. Thankfully, it had some flavor.
The waitress was understand of my disappointment not on my with the lackluster “burger” but also the time to have food delivered. She did apologize and tried to make it right.
In the end, the people here are friendly and the motel room is nice. However, the quality of the food and the timing of the service will make me a one time...
Read moreOur stay was adequate. Room was clean. The bed was comfortable as were the pillows. If we hadn't been in the middle of a heatwave advisory, we would likely have enjoyed our stay more, but the air conditioning wasn't sufficiently cooling the room. I actually changed our reservations in town to go to a hotel that had air conditioning because of the heat. They either have the temperature capped to not be allowed lower than a certain amount or the A/C unit just isn't suitable for the size of room. We carry a clip on fan, but the room decor didn't offer a place to clip it to.
Wifi was okay in most places in the room but dropped in a few spots.
I'd seen they offer a complimentary mini-bar, so I wrote in my room request/comments that we don't drink alcohol and like still water. All that was left in the mini-bar was sparkling water and alcohol, but the mini-bar advertisement mentioned soda and tea. They probably just didn't read my request, but I felt like we were being pranked.
If not a really hot day/night, we would have enjoyed the stay...
