Pros:

Wij waren op zoek naar een last-minute overnachting ivm onze doorreis. Dit hotel ligt direct bij het treinstation, maar heeft ook een kleine eigen parkeerplaats achter het hotel en anders is er een parkeergarage vlakbij. Kamers zijn eenvoudig, maar zeer schoon. Badkamer is voorzien van zeep en shampoo. Ontbijt bied voldoende mogelijkheden en er was zelfs vers stokbrood en verse croissants.
De eigenaren waren heel bereidwillig om te helpen en te assisteren. Ook toen onze zoon die in Locarno woont even op bezoek kwam.
Voor een centraal gelegen hotel in Locarno een geschikt hotel.

Adequate.
Pros:

This is a very budget hotel. Don’t expect luxury. It is very run down but they have tried to modernise the rooms. Despite this the beds were clean and comfortable. There was a very cute grumpy cat at reception 😊

Cons:

Toilet was dirty with someone else’s urine. I cleaned it myself. Yuck! Also needed a copy of my passport (no one else in Switzerland required this). Also had to pay extra city tax on check out - we didn’t know about this extra charge beforehand.
