The building and room are very old, but nice, and that is what I wanted. However, the reception was at a travel agency two blocks away, and the breakfast was two blocks away. Fortunately, it was not raining. All the staff were very friendly. I wanted a hotel south of Heidelberg, in a small town setting. This hotel was easy to find, just off a main road south of Heidelberg. The shower was very small, which is typical of very old buildings.
