Weinhaus Uhle

I don't think the Uhle Hotel meets the official 4 star criteria: * The reception is only open from 8 to 22. The front door even less. * There is no lobby. * There is no real luggage story, and certainly not a safe one. * The mini bar is tricky. The small selection of candy bars and nuts is hidden in the main drawer, and looks like it is for free. The price list is hidden. * There is no room service (I was told I can order food by phone and pick it up in the hotel restaurant.) Check-in was strictly 15h00 in my case. The receptionist is also the owner, who I saw serving in the restaurant and clearing the tables from morning to night. You can imagine the "friendliness" of such an overworked person, and wonder why they have not more personnel. After all, the price level is not cheap, especially the breakfast for €26 is overpriced. The aisle to my dark corner room was freezing cold because a window was open. Probably because there was a stench in my room. The bad smell could have come from the clogged sink, or the dysfunctional shower doors that cause flooding. The room remained too cold all the time (ca 18°C) and there is no individual temperature control in the room. The room door doesn't close automatically, it actually remains a tad open, which I only noticed because there was a windy draft in my room. Could be a security problem. Last not least, I was charged the 5% local hotel tax in addition, although my booking confirmation said it was already included. I'm sure this was just another mistake.
