I had a difficult time finding a hotel in Trier for the night I needed to stay there, but was able to get a very affordable room (80 euro) at the Weunhaus Becker, a very nice hotel/restaurant near some vineyards on the outskirts of Trier. Upon arrival, there was a huge festival in Trier, which explained the difficulty in finding a room that night. The festival was a pleasant surprise as well as a great way to spend my first evening in Germany. I had to take a cab to get to the Weinhaus Becker, so it's not very convenient. But the hotel itself is very nice, large clean rooms in German style and was even given a bottle of wine from their vineyard. And the breakfast buffet was the best on my trip. However, those who worked there (perhaps even the owners) were not very friendly or even welcoming. I felt like I was more of a nuisance being there to them than a valued guest. Upon arrival, it took them a while to show us to our room because they were busy handing out glasses of wine to their restaurant patrons. And the only thing they said to me was "breakfast is at 8 and our restaurant is full tonight." When I said that's fine we have already eaten, she looked at me like I had insulted her. Then I had a friend who was trying to call my room, and since I was on the other line trying to call her, they told her that I was away and would be back in an hour - which was completely untrue. They just didn't want to answer their phone because they were very busy with the restaurant. And my friend said they were really peeved at her that she was trying to get connected to my room. However, the man who served breakfast the following morning did apologize for the phone confusion, and was very pleasant. So to summarize, the hotel is very nice, a bit out of the way, very affordable, and the owners are not particularly friendly.
