Comfortable and excellent service
Pros:

I am very happy with my stay at Glärnisch Hof. The people who run it are lovely, everything is very clean, and the breakfast included in the price is very varied and freshly baked.

Cons:

Perhaps something that could be improved (at least in the room where I stayed) is the lighting situation. Sunrise was at 5:30 when I was there, and coming from a country where it's customary to have blinds, blackout curtains could be very beneficial for those who struggle to sleep with sunlight coming in.

Pros:

The hotel is very beautiful and the bathroom is close to the room. Since there weren't many rooms for one bathroom, it was always available!
The breakfast was very good with fresh frui5 , yougurt , cheese, very plentiful!
It is moderatwly priced , considering the fact that you are in Switzerland
You can use the bus , if you time your journey carefully!

Cons:

I had problems with the Wifi, but the other guests didn't... so it might be my fault...

Kleines, sehr gut geführtes Hotel, der Besitzer war sehr nett und hilfsbereit.
Pros:

Sehr netter Empfang, unkomplizierte Zahlung und Einchecken, grosse Flexibilität, das Frühstück war schon vor dem Start bereit, so dass ich es trotz der frühen Abfahrt des Busses noch geniessen konnte.

Cons:

Da fällt mir nichts ein
