We stayed here because mom was having brain surgery at the local Kaoser. The rooms were clean and quiet. The daily breakfast had many options and unlimited coffee throughout the day. Free parking! The staff was welcoming, helpful when we needed to prolong our stay, and thoughtful with handwritten notes. They are across from Harry's Hof Brau, which was a great place for dinner. Overall, we would definitely stay here again, just hope we don't have to.
