Awesome

Once again our stay could not be beat. The place is immaculate, comfy, and the location is spot on for antiquing. We love listening to the fountain and the entertainment at the restaurant which is directly across from Gasthof Fretz. The owner is wonderful and so easy to communicate with. This is the only place to stay when pin Adamstown.
