(Rolf) ...In 1999 we spent three weeks with Anna Ziegler who with her mother-in-law, Stephanie Ziegler, manages the Frühstückspension Bachmann. They gave us their largest room with balcony for the three weeks. It faced an intersection on the Berchtesgadenerstrasse, B-160 (Austria)/B-305 (Germany), the road to Berchtesgaden. The Zieglers are the kindest hosts we have met in a long time. The house and rooms were spotless. We received fresh towels every day which was not the case at the other lodgings. Frau Ziegler let me use a garage to store my folding bike and also did our laundry a couple of times.

..The first of our really very nice breakfasts consisted of several types of fresh rolls, orange juice, coffee, butter, several types of cheeses, spreads and jams, ham, honey, and a soft egg on tables covered with immaculate linen. The ladies Ziegler were attending to us like we were royalty. However, they speak very little or no English.

..We stayed there again in 2005 for three nights. I believe she charged us €50/night. The only problem is the front rooms face the 305 and in the summer with no AC and the windows open it can get loud. An experienced traveler always carries ear plugs, so it was no issue for me. Take a bus to Salzburg (8 km) instead of your car, no parking issue. Short drive to Berchtesgaden and/or the Salzburger Freilichtmuseum in Großgmain.
