Wenn auch kein Luxus, so hat es doch an nichts gefehlt
Pros:

Das Frühstück war eher mässig . Brot nicht frisch, Cappuccino fast ungeniessbar. Müslimischung sehr gut!

Cons:

Der Bus fährt nur alle 2 Std. nach Locarno, aber dafür kann das Hotel ja nichts.

Pros:

En arrivant nous étions surpris car l'hôtel était fermé ! Mais les clés étaient préparées dans un endroit bien accessible

Cons:

Le fait qu'il n'y ait qu'un restaurant pour manger dans le village! Comme il était complet il a fallu reprendre la voiture pour aller ailleurs
