The exterior scenes in front of "Hotel Fürstenhof" are shot at a private hotel in Vagen, Bavaria and on the previous set of _"Manns - Ein Jahrhundertroman, Die" (2001) (mini)_.
Although the public broadcaster ARD was heavily criticized for the show's trivial plot and wooden acting, it has been watched by up to 4.5 million viewers in its daytime slot and has been sold to other countries due to its enormous domestic success.
