Gastehaus St. Martin

When we arrived we were very enthousiastically welcomed by the owner, who was perhaps glad that we arrived before 6pm – closing time for arrival. There was parking space available, but it seemed not sufficient if the guesthouse were fully booked. The room was spacious with a sitting area and even a mini kitchen (which we did not use) and had a good bed. The bathroom had a decent size, good shower, and a soap dispenser which we don’t like. The guesthouse is located in a very quiet residential neighbourhood. Breakfast was excellent, eggs were prepared in any style on order. Wifi OK. Down the street, at a 10 minutes’ walk a recommendable restaurant (Riva: Italian food) can be found, with an outside dining area on the border of the Bodensee; even on a Monday it was very crowded, reservations seem necessary although we had luck without one.

The hotel is a 10 minutes’ walk from the Bodensee, the larger part of which is up-hill (or down-hill), but those who can manage the exercise, will enjoy the walk. No restaurants closer to the hotel. The interior of the room at first sight looked a bit basic with light-brown wooden furniture, but everything we might need for one night was there.
