Happy solo traveler
Pros:

I loved this place!
The staff was always very friendly and willing to help.
The bus stop is just two minutes away, and there's a supermarket about a 10-minute walk away.
The room was spacious, and the bed was comfortable. There was a mini fridge and a balcony, and the bathroom was well equipped, with a bathtub.
The breakfast was very good too
The facilities were great, I especially loved the view from the balcony and the spa. It's a great place to stay for the price.

Cons:

When the hotel was busier, there weren’t enough towels available in the spa.
The pool looked slightly murky toward the end of the day.

Pros:

Das Hotel hat viel Charme. Die Zimmer könnten eine Renovierung vertragen, aber die Betten und das Badezimmer waren hervorragend. Die Angestellten waren außergewöhnlich freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wir haben uns dort sehr wohl und willkommen gefühlt.

Pros:

Le buffet du petit dejeuné est complet, l'accès à la piscine sauna est un vrai plus, le personnel est adorable et la vue sur les alpes est à coupée le souffle. C'est proche d'un super U à 7 min à pied, et proche d'une station de ski familiale, les prarions. Tout reste relativement proche (station max a 20 min en voiture). Je recommande

Cons:

Attention, les croissants étaient pas bien cuits, la piscine manquait d'un petit coup de nettoyage. Le reste était nickel.
