The staff are very friendly and helpful at the Flockner B&B. Thomas, the front desk clerk gave us our free bus passes to use hopping ar3Salzburg. He also helped us move to a ground floor room from the secod floor walk-up unit. The daily free breakfast buffet was an excellent way to start the day, a meeting spot for my whole fauly, some of them were staying at nearby NUMA, that fid not have a front desk. They had an emergency with a luggage locker not opening & it took a while through a chat bot to get a human to come unlock it. NUMA made them get towels & supplies in the basement and charges extra for cleaning more than once a week. My advice - STAY AT FLOCKNER B & B AND BE TREATED LIKE A VALUED GUEST!

This is one of the best hotels I have stayed in and it is Ulrich who made the visit so memorable. Right from the moment you walk in you feel welcomed and that your comfort matters. She truly cares about her guests and goes out of the way to help if needed. The rooms are bright, colorful and spacious. Location is very convenient . Thanks Beatrice and Nico for greeting us with a smile at breakfast every morning!
