Breakfast
Despite its charming name, Hotel am Schloss falls short in the breakfast department, as nearly all reviewers noted an absence of breakfast during their stay. Guests frequently expressed disappointment over the unavailability of breakfast with many attributing this to staff shortages, Covid-19 restrictions or unclear hotel policies. While some found solace in nearby bakeries, others lamented the misleading information provided online and within the hotel premises. The recurring theme suggests that expectations for a morning meal weren't met, leaving many to recommend that future guests plan alternative arrangements for breakfast.

Rooms
The rooms at Hotel am Schloss present a mixed experience for guests. On the brighter side, several guests appreciated the modern furnishings in some rooms, the convenience of large TVs and the comfort of beds which are described as soft with large pillows. Rooms that were recently renovated or tastefully decorated received positive remarks for their cleanliness and aesthetic appeal. Effective shower facilities and the presence of essentials like wardrobes and tables also drew favorable comments.

However, various challenges were highlighted by numerous guests. A recurring theme in the reviews is the cramped and tiny nature of the rooms with significant mentions of narrow spaces and difficulty accessing windows due to the room layout. Many rooms appeared to be in need of renovation with visible damages such as cracked walls, loose skirting and broken fixtures. Cleanliness was also a concern, as some rooms had noticeable stains, cobwebs and unpleasant odors.

Issues like non-functional electrical amenities, poor lighting and inadequate blackout curtains were also noted, affecting overall comfort. The bathroom facilities were frequently criticized for being exceedingly small, dirty and impractical, sometimes requiring awkward maneuvers to use the toilet.

Guests also faced logistical inconveniences, like difficult check-in processes, no WiFi, problematic door locks and limited check-in times. Noise was another point of discomfort for some. Overall, while some rooms provided a satisfactory stay for a night, the current state of the hotel's facilities often left guests feeling it was not suitable for extended stays.

Beds
Hotel am Schloss has received mixed feedback regarding its beds. Many guests have praised the beds for being comfortable, highlighting their softness and large pillows. Some visitors specifically mentioned that the beds were very comfortable and large, suggesting a generally positive experience. However, other reviews were less favorable, citing issues such as sagging mattresses and worn-out bed structures. Concerns about cleanliness were also raised with comments about crumpled and marked bed linen, as well as foreign hairs on pillows. In terms of room conditions, some guests noted that cold temperatures made the beds feel damp. Despite these issues, the recurring commendation of comfort does indicate that the hotel has the potential to provide a good night's sleep, although consistency and maintenance could be areas for improvement.

Cleanliness
Despite its charming exterior, 'Hotel am Schloss' has received significant criticism concerning its cleanliness. Multiple guests reported issues ranging from dirty floors and dusty surfaces to mold and unpleasant odors. Frequently mentioned problems include stained and torn bed linen, unclean mirrors and bathrooms in disrepair with specifics such as hair in sinks, dirty tiles and even remaining urine in the toilets. There are mentions of the hotel feeling run down with instances of crumbling plaster, cobwebs and dead insects contributing to an overall neglected atmosphere. The ventilation issues and small rooms also detracted from guests' comfort. Although some guests found the rooms acceptably clean and reported clean bed linen, the general consensus suggests that maintenance and hygiene at the hotel leave much to be desired.

Despite the overwhelmingly positive feedback on individual interactions, there are mentions of some operational shortcomings. A few reviews point out issues with staff availability and competence, suggesting occasional lapses in service. Reception hours and the timing of staff presence were also noted, as some guests found check-in times restrictive.

Overall, while the personal interactions with the hotel staff receive high praise for their friendliness and helpful nature, improving service consistency seems to be an area where the hotel could benefit from attention.
