Conveniently staying at a remote location in the center of everyting.
Pros:

Nice and clean hotel.
Friendly staff.
Walking distance to the Rifflsee cable car (and even possible to Gletcher funicular).
Nice Sauna.
Semi covered parking.
Stunning view from balcony.
Strict rules on quiet times in evening.
The Pitztal Card allowing a daily free ride with the cable car.

Cons:

Minor. But a suggestion to improve, Place instructions on how to use the sauna. Fellow guests where using the sauna with bathclothing and did not sit on towels, which felt a bit unhygienic.

The moment I got neighbours who where heavy smokers on the balcony the smoke enetered my room. So, with high temperatures I had to sleep with closed windows,

No rules on quiet times in morning. My neighbours sat talking loudly on the balcony 0,5 meter of my room at 5:30 am,.
