Soldi mal spesi
Pros:

Personale accogliente, gentile e disponibile. Colazione discreta

Cons:

Camera molto rumorosa: la mancanza di insonorizzazione non scherma il rumore del traffico, la ventilazione del bagno fa un rumore assordante e si accende automaticamente con la luce, la pompa dell’acqua fa un ronzio rumoroso e continuo. Non si chiude occhio.
Si aggiunge finiture datate e rovinate, la moquette delle scale ormai nera dallo sporco.

Buona scelta per famiglia
Pros:

Struttura molto pulita, personale cortese.

Cons:

Nulla in particolare. Ovviamente siamo a Lugano per cui i prezzi sono un po altini per un 3 stelle.

COMODO E ACCOGLIENTE
Pros:

Camera di dimensioni sufficienti con un balcone ampio. Al primo piano non c'è ponorama.
La camera era pulita e ben organizzata.
Il bagno sufficientemente ampio anche in rapporto alla camera.
La colazione era di buona qualità e con scelta più che sufficiente.
TV smart con tutte le funzioni e tutti i canali europei.
Lo staff è stato molto cortese e disponibile.

Cons:

La strada è vicina e si sente un po' di motori.
Il parcheggio vicino è a pagamento e pubblico potrebbe non esserci spazio (ma io ho trovato al volo).

Génial!
Pros:

Le petit déjeuner était impeccable, l’accueil super chaleureux et l’endroit est magique! Je suis allée voir le coucher du soleil depuis le parc San Michele sur recommandation des gens à l’hôtel et c’était incroyable! Belle chambre lumineuse avec “bac” qui peut servir de chauffage et de clim ! Je recommande à 100%
