알피나 루체른 솔직 후기
Pros:

일단 역에서 5분 거리라 거리가 최대 장점입니다. 엘리베이터도 좁긴 하지만 있긴 있고 침대도 푹신합니다.

Cons:

청소 서비스를 원하지 않는다고 했는데 외출한 사이에 청소를 해버렸어요. 청소 중에 변기솔을 변기에 놓은 채 청소를 마치고 가셔서 좀 당황스러웠고 바닥청소가 덜 된 거 같았어요.

Quaint accom very friendly and helpful staff member at reception.Would have scored better with a fridge
Pros:

It was close to the train station had a cute little balcony

Cons:

There was no fridge! We found that very annoying. It was also quite noisy with the windows open, which we had to because there was no air conditioning, but they did leave you ear plugs

great location - near to train terminal. Balcony.

Ancient and small lift. Need to check in at another hotel next ot it. The shower room has a long, rectangular glass panel that allows you to see through from the bedroom.
