Lauenau hiking and eating

It was such a lovely place! Clean, convenient. The check in did not go well as the owner was not informed or our arrival and there were no check in instructions. It was resolved with a phone call but still stressful. Also, there were no wifi instructions. Another phone call was necessary. Everything else about the place was perfect - the beds, linens, bathrooms were clean, fresh, and warm. Would recommend more instructions on how to use washing machine. The shower was a little confusing. Had an excellent meal at Zum Steinofen and great hiking in nearby state forest. A book with basic flat instructions and local fare would be very helpful.
