Fabulous and Fantastic Find!!
This place was an incredible and completely unexpected find! The out of the way location and beautiful surroundings were indeed a breath of fresh air! Staff completely welcoming, as indeed were all of the other guests. In all of the years of my extensive travelling, I've never experienced anything like it!!

The "low cost" rooms are VERY basic, the TV system didn't work in my room, only one station was available. The bathrooms are shared, reasonably clean and up to standard. Nice surroundings and quit area.

Questionable hotel although the night was okay
We booked the hotel via the hotels app, checking certain requirements before booking. Additional costs, facilities ect... Arrived at the hotel and was greeted with additional cost not listed on the app. Covid related ventilation costs we were told. They also tried to put us in a shared bathroom room even though what we booked said private bathroom. Additional parking costs which we were not aware of. Loud guests and thin walls. Although we had a okay nights sleep and the facilities were suitable when we were given the correct room. The whole situation was rather strange and I suspect they fool travelers with these ridiculous additional charges.

Terrible condition and service, avoid
If you enjoy sitting in the middle of a group of drunk elderly people loudly singing and clapping to loud Schlager music, EVERY DAY, then this hotel might be for you, were it not that the room was not clean, did not include toilets and showers (and the shared ones were not clean either and were always out of toilet paper), and everything was broken. The curtain was hanging off its rails so that it could not close entirely, the (empty) refrigerator was so loud that it woke us up and had to unplug it. Then, the music from the terrace started playing again and 7 am and woke us up. On top of all that, parking was not included and surprised us with extra costs. Honestly, the room looked like it was painted by an underpaid teen (paint stains were everywhere, from the ceiling to the dirty carpet). The closet was damaged. The staff were rude to us when we complained. The manager was outright hostile. At least breakfast was alright. Would not recommend this hotel, avoid at all cost if you want to nice hotel stay.

Actual Costs Compared to Reservation Costs
Hotel De Elderschans charged me extra for a private bathroom although included in booking confirmation. I showed them my printed reservation which states Private Bathroom and toiletries included but they said room booked was Economy and I would have to pay additional 10 Euros for a Private Bathroom. On top of that they made an additional (unpublished) charge for car parking at an additional cost of 9.90 Euros. Total cost came to 56.20 Euros including taxes considerably higher than the 33.65 quoted so I have been somewhat mislead when it comes to prices and am far from happy.

Hotel was absolutely fine for the money, no complaints. Just make sure you ask for a room as far away from the bar as possible as it's quite noisy at night Nothing in walking distance of the hotel Gym was an added bonus with basic equipment

Achtung Abzocke! Leider sehr kurzfristig für 1 ÜB gebucht und dafür mangels Alternativen stattliche EUR180 bezahlt. Unsere Erwartungen waren trotz des verhältnismäßig hohen Preises schon nicht so hoch, aber was wir dort vorgefunden haben unter der Bezeichnung Economy Doppelzimmer, war das schlimmste, versiffteste und runtergekommenste an Unterkunft was wir jemals gesehen haben und eigentlich schon außerhalb jeglicher Vorstellungskraft. Sind daher ohne alternraitve Unterkunf umgehend abgereist, ohne jegliche Erstattung, noch nicht einmal für das beim Check in vorab bezhalte Frühstück sowie Park- und Hundegebühren. Die Hotelbetreiber sollten sich für solche Zimmer schämen wobei die Bezeichnung Hotel hier völlig fehlt am Platze ist. Hostel oder Jugenherberge würds eher treffen und auch dafür wäre das Niveau unterste Schublade. Die Krönung, 1 Tag später kostete das gleiche Zimmer dort online "nur noch" EUR58!?

Bon hôtel
Bon séjour, j'avais peur en ayant lu les commentaires. Mais hôtel très convenable, et original ! En lisière de forêt, au calme . La chambre demande un rafraîchissement mais elle était très propre. Personnel agréable. Restaurant en buffet sur place, très correct. Juste l'insonorisation avec le couloir et la chambre voisine n'est pas super mais comme dans beaucoup d'hôtels .
