Cons:

Had een 3 persoonskamer en voor 1 persoon was hij nog te klein.
Douche deur ging naar binnen open erg onhandig omdat de douche klein was.
Voor 2 nachten moest ik €40,- betalen voor mijn super klein hondje( buiten proportie)

Ich liebe diese Ibis-Budget Hotels!
Pros:

Diese Ibis Budget-Hotels sind immer wieder großartig, genau, was ich mir wünsche: ein basic-Hotel ohne Schnick-Schnack, aber sauber und günstig. Tolle Lage, die Tram fährt alle paar Minuten in die Stadt und zum Bahnhof, der aber auch fußläufigerreichbar wäre.
Für unter 4 Sfr hätte es ein kleines Frühstück mit Kaffee und zwei kleinen Gebäckstücken gegeben, das ich allerdings nicht in Anspruch genommen habe.
Die Fenster waren verschlossen, aber eine gute, leise Aircondition hat mich durch die Nacht begleitet.

Convenient one night stay when commuting through Switzerland
Pros:

It was easy to find and has a car park underneath. The rooms are small, but clean and functional. Plenty of options on the breakfast buffet.

Cons:

Check that you pull in to the correct car park. ibis styles and ibis budget are next door to each other.

I will visit again when having meetings in the area.
Pros:

It was my third or fourth stay there, and it was good as always. The hotel is a simple 2-star hotel: clean, tidy and perfectly fine. However, what really stands out is the staff. They speak and behave with the politeness, care and professionalism you would expect in a 5-star hotel. Both at reception and in the breakfast room, the service was exceptionally good. Well done — please keep it that way!

Cons:

The only downside was that the window could not be opened, not even in a tilted position. The ventilation was good, but sometimes it is nice to feel some fresh air from outside.

Pros:

Das Personal an der Rezeption und im Frühstücksraum war super nett ( und das Frühstück war auch gut). Die Lage war sehr gut, viele öffentliche Verkehrsmittel in der Nähe.

Cons:

Die Zimmer sind zwar funktional eingerichtet, aber sehr ungemütlich und "ohne Atmosphäre".
