Pros:

Good location and clean

Cons:

No staff available after 7 pm and no info given. Poor key lock. Trouble opening after locking. Was not told after7 pm no staff. Called help number at front of building and no person responded. Stressful as I had three people try the lock. Finally got in and could not go out due to very bad key lock. A good place if there were better locks and staff at reception to give you information if a problem arises.

Pros:

Perfect place to start an early morning weekend hike. If you are expecting a place with hotel amenities, look elsewhere. This is an alpine chalet/hut. Spacious and clean bedroom, lovely balcony with a view of the Jungfrau.
The shared bathroom was clean.

Pros:

It is a good location, in town and near the supermarket. It has decent views though not the best in the town.
Beds were nice.

Cons:

It's very noisy. You share a bathroom and the only toilet per floor with 5 rooms.
I had to wait 1-2 hours to pee on some days.
It felt more like a overly expensive hostel with individual rooms, then a nice place which I expected from the price.
Also no blinding curtains.
Bring a sleep mask, plan your toilet trips, and bring earplugs.

The location was great, near the train station. The beds were comfortable.

Preis- Leistung stimmt und für einen Kurzaufenthalt absolut OK.
Pros:

Die Unterkunft war sehr einfach aber sauber. Für die zwei Tage absolut in Ordnung.

Cons:

Das Badezimmer musste mit anderen Parteien geteilt werden, was aber recht gut geklappt hat. Leider war der Ablauf der Dusche verstopft und das Wasser ist nur langsam abgelaufen.

Prettig hotel voor korte tussenstop!

Fijn bed, fijne ramen die goed open konden en een ruime kamer, goede locatie en ook fijne snelle service

Cons:

Douchegordijn was aan de bodem beschimmeld, het putje liep niet goed door en de wc bril was versleten.
