Pros:

Die Lage war sensationell.

Cons:

Der Service ließ leider nach und auch die Halbpension war leider am 2. und 3. Tag nicht mehr so gut.

Viel besser als erwartet
Pros:

Das Frühstück war ausgezeichnet, besonders der Porridge. Leider wurden Honig und Ahornsirup nicht nachgefüllt obwohl leer.
Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.
Das Essen und die Bar sind auch sehr gut

Cons:

Der Hotel Parkplatz ist ziemlich weit entfernt, aber machbar.
Die Matratzen waren für uns zu weich, aber das ist eine persönliche Vorliebe.

The hotel was excellent and would recommend to others.
Pros:

The Hotel was a great location to explore the city. The room was cozy, clean, and the balcony was nice to relax with a cup of coffee while looking at the mountains.

Pros:

Centrally located, tasty dinner, friendly staff, clean room, good water pressure in the shower, nice balcony, the hotel has a rooftop terrace for relaxing.

Cons:

Given the room was facing the waterfall at the back of the hotel, it was noisy. No minibar / mini fridge in the room and since it was 30 degrees outside, it would be nice to have a cold drink etc. No sausages for breakfast.
Would stay again, but would have to bring my own mini fridge.
