Super
Pros:

Dit was een van de goedkoopste hotel die ik kon vinden in Lugano. Na de recensies gelezen te hebben, had ik vraagtekens. Het hotel was echt super goed en ik snap niet waar sommige slechte reacties vandaan komen. Voor Zwitserse prijzen is dit zeer schappelijk.

Cons:

De airco was wat oud en werkte niet heel erg goed.

Pros:

Location is really central in the city of Lugano.

Cons:

They sell a studio with a kitchen to cook your food, but there is nothing to cook. No plates, no knives, no forks, nothing to cook, no casserole, no pan. We took this to cook some food and had to go out to dinner everyday because the kitchen was empty and not usable.
