Hotel Rügenblick

The Hotel Rugenblick has a friendly, helpful staff. The 'single standard' room was very clean if furnished somewhat spartanly. Everything was in good order, however. The breakfast buffet was very acceptable. Parking was free and off-street. The wifi worked well in the reception area but could be sporadic in the room itself. The major thing to remember is that this hotel is well outside of downtown, and I was told there are no dinner options in the neighborhood where it's situated. The woman at the reception desk said the hotel is on a bus line, but I chose to walk to the old city along the adjacent waterfront promenade. It was a lovely walk, but it took me 45 minutes one way. The cab ride home after dinner cost just under 10 Euros. Due to major construction downtown, I was (well) advised by the hotel staff not to drive my rental car and try to park. All in all, the Hotel Rugenblick has much to recommend it, especially the great value for what you pay, but it is way far away from the interesting sights in the old city and is in an area that doesn't support travelers' needs.
