Halfway home from our holydays we needed a room. Easily found through some booking site, we booked a room and a parking space for our car. This nice hotel is located at no more than 10 kilometres from the highway but very near to a big bus station . The street where the entrance is, seemed busy but we were tired and in desperate need of beer and wine. Saarbruecken is, to our experience, a great mix of beer- and wine country. The parking space we got was a closed box for only our car. To get there we had to drive up a steep road with a tight turn to get into the box. No problem even for our bigger than average vehicle. Reception is friendly and our room on the second floor. Nicely decorated if not oversized but with everything that you need. Bathroom looked a bit tired but was thoroughly clean. At the bar we did need some patience to get our drinks. The bartender is very nice and takes his time to explain the menu, the drinks and anything you might want to know. Poring a glass of beer does take some time in Germany, after all. Such good beer and wine, we had some more. If you order your bar meal from him it cost half the amount comparing to the dishes ordered from the restaurant waiter. We aren’t sure whether or not you get the same but are that it comes from the same kitchen. It was good enough for us anyway. We had our meal and drinks on a closed in terrace with no view. It did however had enough to look at from a great many grapevines, plastic birds and many fountains. We spent surprisingly little money at the bar for all the drinks and food. Sleeping is all right. The bed does what it should do and pillows and blankets are readily available in the room. Upon checking out the bill was very reasonable and we found our way back to the highway within 5 minutes. This might even become our regular stop whenever we are in the neighbourhood.
