Cons:

As with other hotels in Switzerland, this hotel did not have air-conditioning. Even with two fans on, we had a very poor, hot night

Pros:

Great breakfast, one of the best i ever had in a hotel, in a lovely garden. Free water and drinks. Nice breakfast hall and good service and staff. Walking distance to the center, cliae to the river.

Cons:

The only two problems were the size of the room (rather small, but efficient) and lack of air conditioning which was a real problem, as it was unusually hot for Swiss weather, ar. 30 celsia, but that was exceptional situation.
