>>>Freiburg and Baden Baden are truly beautiful.
>>>The people are gracious and the forellen are excellent with a well selected Auslese.

>>Yupp, that stretch from Switzerland to Baden Baden is great - dunno if the sun shining there more often than in any other part of Germany (good for grapes and people) or swiss mentality tampering not-so-nice-parts found in Germany and France - they try to pick the best down there.

>>In smaller towns in Germany you don't find the range big city offers (while "small" and "big" are both smaller when contrasted to the states), but you seldom pick something really bad. If you ever come again (if only as fugitives from Corona or Trump) and have no fixed itinary, try to stay in smaller towns which have Universities (even if "only" for Applied Sciences) - fresh blood coming there every year gives German Angst a sometimes needed kick in the behind and numbers of students are so small that bad parts / groups / results are almost unknown.

>>Think Heidelberg, Konstanz, Marburg, Münster, Offenburg, Osnabrück, Trier, Tübingen, Worms for starters - pretty certain that you will feel more at ease with general attitude and mindset prevalent there ;-)

>I do like Trier.

Yupp, nice. If I needed a hotel, I was a bit off center - did you stay by chance in Blesius Garten as well ?
