    The previous bad reviews.

    Having read the reviews, we were rather concerned about our stay, but it was a lovely surprise. The staff were friendly and welcoming; there were no cockroaches and the room was clean. The breakfast was good and like that of our other hotels. The dinner was lovely. All good. Absolutely nothing wrong with it.

    Really busy railway just outside hotel (didn't expected it will be so busy). It took quite much time to reach Vienna center.

    Compared to all Austria prices it was quite reasonable price.

    There are a lot of small flies in the breakfast buffet. Meals in the breakfast is a bit scarce. Hot water and central heating in the room was uncertain.

    The hotel is located in a calm town. It is accesible to Vienna by 30-40 minutes drive. The parking space provided next to the hotel is spacious.

    We stayed here one night as part of a cycling holiday along the River Danube. The hotel was chosen for price and distance from the cycle route. The hotel is in a quite residential area. It is dated but perfect for our needs. Clean room. Comfortable bed. Good shower. Not air con but electric fan in the room did the trick. Staff were very friendly. Secure p on ace to keep your bike. Garden area to sit and enjoy a beer. Breakfast was included in the price. It was buffet and hot food. I would happily recommend this hotel.

    First of all there were cockroaches in the bathroom! It isn't acceptable in any place. For that reason we didn't even want to eat breakfast. Breakfast itself was one of the worst we seen in many years of traveling. There was no hot food in the morning (no omelette, no sausages or anything), though it's always an option in other places. There were some really hard boiled cold eggs, some stale cereal. When we were ready to go, the host came out and asked if we wanted scrambled eggs. It would have been great, but I doubt someone would want to eat in a place with cockroaches. Also as an earlier review said, who were about the same time as we were. You enter a building through some gate in the back yard with big table, the main doors are closed and there were always sitting some restaurant customers or some kind of local people. They were drinking all evening, then in the morning. Also they were with more than few dogs and it was quite stressful for us to, because we are traveling with our own dog. I carried our dog on hands through them, they were always barking, jumping. Nobody even tried to pull them back from me. In any way, nobody felt comfortable that you have to go through all those people every time. The host was speaking a little bit in English but not that much so you could talk about the problems and inconveniences.

    It's a nice location near a lake.

    Nothing negativ to say about this place

    Beautiful room, looked like it was recently refurbished with high standard of finishing. Very clean. Secure parking for our bikes and delicious food. Staff also was very friendly. Not far from the Danube cyceling trail and also close to a lake where you can swim. The train station for trains to Vienna or Bratislava is only a few min away, too. Breakfast was also nice.

    not sure if they have queen/kind sized beds (we got 2 beds), everything else was great

    Polite staff, good breakfast, proximity to Vienna, quiet place (regardless the train passing by quite often), private parking and private entrance (you get a key for the backyard entrance so you don't have to go through the bar/reception), couldn't hear people from neighbouring apartments (some were with kids) - good insulation
