There is no elevator and you will have to walk up to the stair. The parking is a little far if you can't parking outside the main street (which could be challenge during normal work week). The room is good for two adult and the bed is typical European size (small). Overall good experience and affordable place.

Great hotel. We stayed here for about a week. So far as I can tell there is no way to reserve…read moreonline so you have to call to reserve which can be tricky since not everyone speaks English. Best to communicate with the manager by Facebook messenger which he responds to and he speaks English. The restaurant is very good and many beers available. I would definitely stay here again. We only ran into one problem, the manager on duty explained the WiFi by describing the use of an "Umlaut" in the password, which I had no idea what that was. Here's a hint -- its a "J". After a day or too we figured it out. So summary, great hotel, for English speakers there are some challenges.

The Schwarzwald did not cooperate the day we drove through. The entire forest was shrouded in…read moreclouds that reduced our visibility to about a five-yard radius around the car. Because of this, the Mummelsee was only a sign indicating a parking lot that we managed to glimpse on the side of the road. Relieved to get off the road, we decided to stop here for our requisite Black Forest cake. Let me start by saying that this hotel is a very cozy place to relax if stuck in the Black Forest during bad weather. Even though the views were of nothing but white, the restaurant was very comfortable. However, do not eat here if you are in anything resembling a hurry. Lunch for three with dessert managed to eat up two hours of our day. I'm not sure how much of this is cultural and how much is the restaurant, but everyone here moves SLOOOOOWLY. When there is nothing better to do, it's not a big deal, but if we had actually had a day with good weather, I would have been very frustrated. That said, the food was worth stopping for. It is classic German cuisine done well. I was particularly thrilled to get schmalz and dark bread as a starter. Kid was very excited to eat spaetzle with gravy. "It's like noodles!" Husband and I ordered rather blindly, as the server didn't offer us a menu in English (which I saw later that they did have), and our guesses worked out well. It was an altogether pleasant meal topped off with a really outstanding Black Forest cake. If you need a place to stop just to check that particular item off of your tourist list, this is a great place to do it. Another good reason to stop is the excellent store below the restaurant. They have all sorts of Black Forest treats to take with you. We left with a BF ham, a kirchwasser salami, and a bottle of schnapps. Yum. So even if you never actually get to see the view, I would still recommend this as a stop on your Black Forest drive...who knows, the lake actually might be pretty, too!

Stopped in to have some coffee and cake while traveling through the Black Forest. Please note that…read morethis is just a review of the restaurant and not the hotel itself. Atmosphere: the restaurant has a very welcoming appearance. There is ample seating for various size parties. There is even a children's play area near the front of the cafe. The large windows/doors open onto a wonderful view of Mummelsee, though it was far too foggy the day we visited to see much of it. Staff: the waiter was attentive and ensured we had everything we needed. Unfortunately, one of our party received the wrong order, but the situation was resolved. Food: as we only had coffee and cake, I can only comment on that. It was thoroughly delicious. Please be aware that some of the desserts do have liqueur in them, so double check before ordering them as they may not be what you expect. Overall, this is a very nice cafe to stop at if you're traveling through the Black Forest and need a break to stretch your legs.
