This is a nice quaint hotel with a nice view overlooking the Pfaffenteich (a man-made pond) in Schwerin, Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany. It is about a 5 minute walk from the train station. When booking a 3-night stay, I requested a room with a walk-in shower and a view overlooking the pond and was given it. ||||The bed was moderately comfortable although the pillows were not really comfortable for my liking. Despite that the window curtains did not close and there was very little street noise, making for reasonably comfortable sleeping. The bathroom was very clean, well-maintained, and had the usual toiletries, which were not replenished daily. There are lots of power outlets around the room. Room lighting is somewhat on the dark side, as least in my room. No lamp lighting at the desk so I moved a floor lamp to the desk.||||In my room, the closet safe was not bolted down so that a thief could just carry off with it. There was also an ironing board/iron and a minibar. The internet although free, worked sporadically with both my mobile and laptop, often with slow loading/connecting times – however there is a terminal free to use in the lobby. There is a small bar/lounge area adjacent to the lobby.||||The breakfast was average but filling. However, the hotel’s best feature is its restaurant for dinner – excellent dishes and service.||||I found the desk staff to be very pleasant and helpful in answering questions and offering helpful suggestions. Would book again if only to enjoy dinner there.
