Samedi matin le jour du marché...
Pros:

L'hôtel se trouve au plein Centre ville. Plateau avec thé, café offert.
Brosse à dents et la dentifrice, coton-tige et le shampooing offert.
Le café offert dans le bar en arrivant.
On m'a aidé à porter ma valise au 2 éme étage.

Cons:

Pour obtenir la carte de transport offerte par Office de Tourisme je devais écrire et appeler 3 fois l'établissement.
Je l'ai eu que le lendemain.
Pas d'assenceur.
Très brouillant le vendredi soir et le samedi matin à partir de 5h00 ( les commerçants du marché commencent à discuter très fort et faire trop de bruit).

Enigszins teleurstellend
Pros:

De ruimte en de locatie

Cons:

Het was niet schoon, afval van vorige gasten nog in de prullenbak. Het meubilair was kapot: het bed, beddengoed en er miste een gordijn.

VERY disappointing 😞
Pros:

Excellent central location, quiet, bed OK

Cons:

The room was dirty (and smelly) on arrival and was only cleaned twice in two weeks (once on my last day!)
The kitchenette didn't have : plates, forks, spoons etc !!!
The TV didn't work...I had to get batteries for the control
Every traveller is supposed to receive a free local travel pass: I didn't get it : people pay for it in the booking and it is the responsibility of the hotel to give it to guests on their day of arrival. A daily pass costs CHF 10, or about $ 11... which I had to pay out of my own pocket!
The owner / manager ́never showed up...there was nobody on the premises I could talk to!
I had asked to be on the lower level due to my age and recent surgery...it turned out I had to climbed 4 steep and narrow stairs. No elevator because it is an old building .
In the city which boast the world famous Ecole hôtelière, this lack of hospitality it is rather disturbing .
Not the Switzerland I used to know.

Pros:

Great Location, the studio apt is perfect for a short stay.

Cons:

I was on the top floor. 5 flights of veey narrow stairs with no elevator. Taking my luggage up there was a bit difficult. The place is comfortable, Clean and the location amazing, the place is also a bit rundown but for a short stay is ok
