First the positive: The Poseidon Therme is a place to feel good, which is something that cannot be said of the Hotel Birkenhof. We had booked a comfort room for eight nights. The room was certainly renovated a few years ago and had a small but nice bathroom and in front of it a walk-in closet that took up so much space in the room that the cozy seating area advertised in the comfort room consisted of a greasy sofa bed that stood at the foot of the bed. The television was the size of a medium-sized computer screen and was attached to the foot of the bed on a swivel arm. A wobbly affair. Fortunately the floor was covered with laminate, because the carpets we saw in the hotel were a nightmare for any barefoot walker. The room cleaning, apart from making the beds, was a rush and over in a flash. The RESTAURANT does not deserve the name, which is not the fault of the service staff. If there is no basis, you cannot offer your guests anything. For breakfast, baked rolls from the discounter, carelessly filled plates with cheese and sausage from the bulk pack without any decoration such as parsley or similar, fruit salad from a tin and, if you were lucky, fresh apples. The coffee in the morning and in the afternoon was undrinkable from a bucket with a tap reminiscent of a youth hostel. The only alternative was tea. Dinner with main courses that changed daily. You can't really talk about culinary art. Example: "Our kitchen is serving you an Italian buffet today." Great anticipation! Spaghetti or spiral pasta with Bolognese sauce or cheese sauce. And a bowl of olives on the salad buffet. Any Italian would be ashamed. In one sentence: never again Birkenhof.
