Motel Zum Schweizerbartl

This hotel is wonderfully old world Germany on the outside when you drive up to it with plenty of free parking. As we walked to the front door, finding it locked, we saw computer printed signs in the window - off humor signs in addition to an unfriendly sign directing you to cold drinks in an outdoor vending machine. At the front was a sign "closed". However due to the kindness of another guest who unlocked the door with his room key, we found our room key on the bar. At this point we were wondering should we stay here or leave. No host/owner/manager to greet/check-in guests - nor to be found during our stay. But we stayed, had a large, nice room with a bathroom. When we showered the water ran all over the bathroom floor as the caulked seal on the glass shower wall had broken away. A very nice buffet breakfast with the smiles of two female servers was welcoming. Many other guests were staying here and enjoyed breakfast. Actually some folks brought their dogs to this hotel. It appears the restaurant and bar are closed to the public - very disappointing as we stayed here for a restaurant on site. Apparently we met the owner - only at checkout - who hovered over his laptop and presented us with our final bill. I find the impersonalization exhibited at this hotel unusual and disappointing. The facilities are nice but management is indifferent. You couldn't pick a more authentic play to stay. Hopefully management will get it's act together soon.
