we stayed in two 5 star hotels, Basel and Frankfort. This hotel, although rustic, compared favorably in every respect except size. It was small and quaint. I screwed up the booking by one day short, and they accommodated me by extended my stay in the same room. Very gracious of them because it was on a German holiday weekend and they were almost totally booked. The surrounding area and I mean within 500 meters, contained a castle, high suspension bridge and good restaurant and small chaple Where was even a wedding there for our entertainment. Food was interesting, good but more ethnic that in the five star hotels. This was an added bonus because we had our 9 year old granddaughter with us.
