Story

It seems as if Lena is a Sunday child: successful in her job and heiress to a hotel. What is strange, however, is that she doesn't know the man who left her a legacy in his will. She travels to the Thuringian town of Saalfeld to take a look at her inheritance and initially decides to sell the hotel. However, when the situation in the company changes for her, she changes her mind and accepts her inheritance in full. But running a hotel requires more than self-confidence and cleverness, as she soon realizes.
