Im Grossen und Ganzen in Ordnung, mit einem leicht etwas bitteren Nachgeschmack.
Pros:

Die Lage und die Ruhe für mich. Frühstück war auch ganz in Ordnung, es hat an nichts gefehlt.

Cons:

Beim Gästeempfang: kein herzliches Willkommen, Reaktion als hätte ich gestört.
Auf Reklamationen keine Reaktion erhalten. Zimmer wurde nicht gereinigt.

Die Ansicht des Matterhorns ist überwältigend
Pros:

Die Lage ist zentrumsnah. Das Frühstück ist sehr gut. Kaffee war ausgezeichnet. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit bei den Tipps zu Ausflügen.

Cons:

Das Einzelbett war nur ein schmales (90cm). Wäre schön, wenn 120cm Standard werden würde in Einzelzimmer.
