Super verblijf!
Pros:

Alles was super verzorgd! De kamer tip top proper en rustig gelegen. Parkeren kon in een parkeergarage waardoor de auto zeer veilig stond. Het ontbijt was voortreffelijk met uiterst kwaliteit producten.

Für einen alten Landgasthof war ich so positiv überrascht, denn das Haus ist komplett renoviert.
Pros:

Das Hotel hat meine Erwartung sehr übertroffen. Da ich zum Frühstück ausserhalb eingeladen war, habe ich nur ein Abendessen genossen und das war sehr gut. Das Personal war sehr freundich und zuvorkommend. Das ganze Haus hat eine sehr positive Energie, was mir aufgefallen ist. Ich komme wieder.
Ich habe die Paul Cezanne Ausstellung besucht,die nur 450 m Fussweg entfernt lag. Nach meinem Termin habe ich noch einen langen Spaziergang in der Natur genossen, was mir sehr gefallen hat.

Cons:

Das ich die Kirche direkt gegenüber hatte, war es schon sehr laut. Ich liebe es bei offenem Fenster zu schlafen.
Das nächste Mal vielleicht ein Zimmer zur anderen Seite.

Pros:

sehr schönes Interior-Design, kostenloser Tee und Kaffee in Aufenthaltsraum im 1. OG, freundliches Personal an Reception, lokale Produkte bei Frühstück

Cons:

etwas mehr vegetarische und vegane Optionen beim Frühstück wäre toll, Late-Check-Out wurde intern nicht weitergeleitet, obwohl am Vorabend abgesprochen

Calore e design
Pros:

Un posto adorabile e caloroso, a cominciare dall'accoglienza sorridente di Esther (spero si scriva così) che mi ha gentilmente riservato un tavolo per la cena. La camera è accogliente e molto pulita, il letto comodo e le lenzuola profumate di pulito. La doccia spaziosa fornita di derergenti e shampoo. Potete usufruire di un kit per tea e tisane al piano. La colazione è strepitosa, varia e presenta prodotti dolci e salati di eccellente qualità. Anche la cena è stata una gradita sorpresa, un petto d'anatra tenero e saporito tra i migliori mai assaggiati. Il grande valore aggiunto è però il servizio, che mi ha fatta sentire ben accolta per l'intero soggiorno. Ritornerò molto volentieri

Cons:

Nulla da segnalare

Modernes Hotel mit schönem Restaurant, gerne wieder
Pros:

Tolles, neues Hotel, schöne Zimmer mit eigener Küche, Kaffeemaschine und hochwertigen Inneneinrichtung. Tolles Frühstücksbuffet. Gute Unterhaltung für Kinder (Ordner mit einer großen Auswahl an Ausmalbildern)

Cons:

Lüftung im Bad, Speisekarte im Restaurant für Kinder würden Basics wie Nudeln mit Tomatensauce statt sehr salzigen Würstchen gut tun. Nachts hört man je nach Lage der Zimmer die Tram sehr gut.

Extra
Pros:

L’emplacement et la facilité pour se rendre en centre ville par le tram. L’architecture, la décoration et la taille de la chambre et de la salle de bain, de l’espace !

Cons:

Chambre sur rue un peu bruyante mais rien de bien grave

Sentiment d’abandon et d’insécurité
Pros:

Rien

Cons:

Ancien Hôtel laissé à l’abandon dont seules les chambres ont été rénovées
Accès hôtel laissés ouverts tout temps et à tout vent
Personnel non joignable (appel, whatsapp)
Impression générale de vraie insécurité nous ayant même poussé à quitter l’hôtel et en réserver un autre en dernière minute.

A lovely location with attentive & kind staff, impeccable facilities and comfortable rooms.
Pros:

Every detail was attended to.

Cons:

The only small addition would be a larger selection at breakfast (such as eggs or bacon, other breads, etc.). Also the possibility to start breakfast earlier during the week (eg. 06:30).
