Pros:

Etablissement très bien situé, rénové, très propre et agréable. Personnel souriant et sympathique. Je n'en attendais pas autant d'un hôtel 2☆

Cons:

Pour moi le lit était trop dur et pas très confortable mais c'est une question de goût. Les oreillers par contre étaient trop mous

Pros:

Location is fantastic, it was a bit noisy over the night, because of heat wave we needed to keep several windows open. We liked a lot an option with a kitchenette. Room was very big, beds were comfortable. We enjoyed our stay and certainly will choose this hotel if traveling next time.

Ein rundum zufriedenstellender und komfortabler Aufenthalt
Pros:

Wir kamen in den Genuss heller, sauberer Zimmer. In der Nacht war es sehr ruhig. Und das Zimmer hatte eine tolle Dusche. Der Checkin und Checkout war freundlich, effizient und unkompliziert. Die Lage in Bahnhofsnähe ist auch hervorragend und ein Parking ist bei der Migros gleich um die Ecke, zu einem fairen Preis.

Cons:

Die Tür und ihr Schliessmechanismus ist ein bisschen veraltet. Das ist aber Meckern auf hohem Niveau. Der Lift ist auch nicht mehr der neuste, erfüllt aber seinen Zweck. Und noch als finale Rosinenpickerei: Der Wasserhahn im Badezimmer wollte nur warmes Wasser spendieren - welch ein Luxusproblem ;) ...

1 nuit mais pas 2 😁
Pros:

La proximité a côté de la gare !

Cons:

Le plancher est en pente donc la tête de lit en descente, il faudrait mettre un calle pour surélever le côté tête ! Par contre juste pour une nuit car à 5h du mat 6h des ouvriers partent aux travail mais porte bruyantes ! Je pire c'est la femme de ménage qui passe son aspirateur a 9h15 jusqu'à 10h30 et parle très fort avec un employé dans le couloir et a 2 reprises je leur ai demandé de faire silence et rien ! Donc c'est pas respecté les hôtes 😁

Für einen Kurzaufenthalt preisgünstiges Hotel in zentraler Lage. Viele Einzelzimmer.
Pros:

Neue renovierte Zimmer mit guten Schallschutz-Fenstern. Geschlossen absolut ruhig. Sehr zentrale Lage unweit vom Bahnhof. Fürs E-Bike gab's eine Garage mit Lademöglichkeit. Das außerhalb des Zimmers gelegene WC war immer sehr sauber.

Cons:

Lift, Flur und Stiegenhaus mit altem Spannteppich. Sollte auch renoviert werden.
Gutes, umfangreiches Frühstück - aber leider nur Weißbrot.
