Very little info on this hotel exists for English speakers, & reviews are raw at best, yet rooms book fast. I was scrambling less than 6 weeks before our trip to Schwandorf for a place for 4 adults 1 child (teenager) that was cheap, had 2 close or adjoining rooms, a bathroom with a shower. Booking dot YEAH found us an apartment for $575.00USD. I also put in bids for cheaper listings that were declined because we were booking from America. I literally had no other choice, & right up to the last "cancel for free" moment (the day before check in) I checked for better alternatives. Weighing pros and cons, I decided to stick with what I found in WHGM despite the unknowns and the cons others had noted in sporadic, years old reviews. You should know that I am a traveler who appreciates dive bars, hole-in-the-wall eateries, roadside attractions, and finding those real experiences only locals know about. I'm not looking to rack up points or stay somewhere that is exactly like a place I can find at home. So if you need chain hotel amenities, stop reading NOW. You aren't going to like WHGM. If you're still reading, that means you're still interested. So let me address the trade-offs. WIFI -NONE. There's a tiny closet with a PC that connects to the internet. SOLUTION: Verizon has an international plan for $10 a day, activate it the DAY YOU TRAVEL. You may have to divine around your room for a signal, but we got 4G LTE without leaving the room just fine. SMOKING: Despite printing gory photos of the horrors the human body suffers on cigarette boxes, smoking in Europe seems more likely than we're used to in America. If you vape be sure to stock up on juice/coils before you travel and be mindful to turn off your mods in your carry-on. Most mods are not lithium, but sneaking a vape isn't worth it. The WHGM lobby smells smoky, there are also ashtrays in the rooms, but ours didn't smell at all. ROOMS: I reserved 2 rooms for 4 adults, 1 teenager. Bookongdotcom glitched & dropped the teenager (young kids stay free so long as they don't need an additional bed). That cost us 20usd a night and included extra towels that were set up immediately. Our room was set up like this: Large front room had a coat bar and 3 doors to 3 rooms. Left door #1: The main room with two beds (2 twin foam mats side-by-side per "bed"). This is the best room for an extra bed. Just off the family table is a separate kitchen with its own door, Cutlery, dishes, glasses, shot glasses, a passive drip coffee set, and silverware for 4, plus some pots and pans provided, Any soaps, condiments, salt/pepper NOT provided. The carpet may seem dated and worn, but there aren't bare patches or weird smells. A Netto grocery is minutes away in Rieden. The TV is old, but there are English channels. Middle room #2: Bathroom with bidet and shower, No free soaps, etc. There's water meters for hot/cold usage. Don't freak out, it's for longer term rentals. Launder your towels unless you want to
