We have a large and comprehensive Library for Books and Music. Please feel invited to use it!
If you take something – please put it back in the same position you took it from.
CDs for classical Music and Books in the kitchen are numbered, to make it easier for you to put them back.
Room cleaning every 3,4 days depending on requirements and length of stay: If you want fresh towels, on a cleaning day please put
the used towels on the floor or in the shower. If you would like to change towels on days without
room cleaning, please contact us in the morning.
Bed linen is changed once a week. If you would like to do without this change, or if you want to
be changed more often, let us know at the reception, so we can save energy, water and
detergent.
Wireless Internet connection is available in all bungalows and apartments and in the kitchen area.
Sonnenlink, password msl-7807. For a restful night’s sleep, we can deactivate WIFI from 23.00 – 7.00 if required.
For loading and unloading your car you can drive as far as the reception building.
Park your car only on the street opposite our entrance. Pull as close as possible to the
far side (so all tyres are off the tarmac, if possible). Please respect the ”no parking” area as
indicated by the signs and the ropes.
Hot water at the main building starts to run after 2 – 3 minutes from the tap.
Therefore you have to run the water for 2-3 minutes in each of the apartments in order to
get hot water. We are sorry for it!
Then there’s plenty of hot water with good pressure for all apartments simultaneously.
Please use it wisely.
Herbs are all around the garden and some small fruit trees as well. Please feel free to
cut and enjoy.
On the left-hand side of the reception building, there’s a place for compost. Please use it!
There is a washing machine outside the reception building. Please contact us if you wish to use it.
(After 3 pm, 5€/wash incl. detergent).
At the terrace of the breakfast area is a big sunshade (the switch is right under the awning). The
shade must be closed during strong wind. We ask for your help.
In respect of the environment please make prudent use of the air conditioner. Keep windows and
doors closed when operating it and switch it off when leaving your room.
Please don’t throw toilet paper, waste or hygiene articles into the toilet, please use the designated
waste container.
The wooden floors are protected with oil. Please wipe any wet spots (water, beverages, etc.)
immediately to prevent stains.
Please store the chair cushions (balcony/terrace) indoors during the night and your
absence to protect from humidity and rain.
Unfortunately, the path to the house and the green terrace is slippery when wet. So please be cautious when raining
Please fix all the windows open outwards because the air strikes and they suffer damage. Keep windows closed during your absence. It may rain suddenly and be very strong.
Please switch off the external lights at night as the light attracts & kills insects.
Please do not smoke inside the house or the rooms! You may smoke in the outside areas. Place
your cigarettes only into the ashtrays.
Candles, incense sticks and any kind of open fire are very dangerous, particularly during
summer. Please don’t use them!
Night’s rest. Please respect the rest periods between 11 pm and 8 am. When coming back late, please close the entrance gate and switch off the lights.
The Sonnenlink – Team is a strong and supportive community. Tipping is therefore shared fairly equally among all employees. You may place your tip either in the tip box at the front desk
or hand over the amount to Dagmar or Burgi, who then distribute it. If you want to reward single employees then hand over the tip personally. Thank you very much!
Arrival & departure. If not agreed differently, you may check into your room after 3 pm and must check out until 10.30 am on the day of your departure.
_______________________________________
Please help to successfully implement our environmental goals!
To avoid unnecessary waste of valuable energy, we ask you to
make sure that windows and doors are closed when the heating or air conditioning is on.
Turn off the lights and/or air conditioning when you leave the room.
Help save water by telling us if you have a dripping water tap or if a leaking WC flush is detected.
Careful use of water e.g. when showering, brushing your teeth and shaving turn off the water in
between, activate WC-stop etc.
All apartments and bungalows are served by a solar panel for hot water. Most of the hot water is of course available in the evening.
In order to be able to recycle a large part of the waste and to produce as little residual waste as possible, we ask you to dispose of your unavoidable waste separately.
Separate bins are available at the car park:
- Paper
- Plastic
- Glass
- Aluminium
- Residual waste
- Compost heap above the reception building
