We went to see our old friends in Stuttgart-Wangen for the first time in two years (pandemics and politicians being what they are), and we elected to stay in the new Hotel BnB there. In the old days, this was the site of the Stuttgart-Wangen Autohof, a truck stop/fuel/hotel site, but it's been re-developed. Half of the site has become the BnB, a brand new bed&breakfast hotel. It's important to retain that idea, because they don't do anything else. The place is well-built, provides a most serviceable breakfast, highly adequate bedding and accommodation, but that's all it does. It provides wifi and cell coverage, quiet rooms, comfortable beds and controllable air-conditioning in a small space, but no room service or other meals. The reception will rustle up a pizza or similar if asked, and you can get a beer or soft drink from the vending machine. That's what they do. It's a comfortable place; bear in mind that the night-time temperatures were in the mid-20s C, daytime up to 36C, that air-con unit was worth it's weight in gold. In reality, if you want more catering to take back to your room, investigate the RAN petrol station next door. Their drink selection dwarfs my local supermarket, they have a bread baking setup for all sorts of breads, and you can live well for not much money. The thing that made this a complete, if simple, experience was the attitude of the staff there. Each one was enthusiastic and helpful, even when I came up with a wifi/macBook issue. The lead assistant tried and failed, the desk manager tried and escalated to his ISP, who failed. FWIW, I could take the thing (a M1 MB Air) down the road to my friend's wifi and all worked. The desk manager came in on a Saturday morning with his 4-yr old to try to sort things out, and I took mercy on him after an hour of much conversation with the ISP to state that I was on holiday and really didn't need laptop wifi in the hotel that badly (iOS and Android both worked perfectly). She shows much promise in UK political terms, as she learns her English from Peppa Pig, as does our Prime Minister Johnson. They were all helpful, all friendly, even after the wifi experience, and we'll definitely be back there.
