Top Lage im schönen Aarau
Pros:

Freundliches Personal, gutes Bett, tolle Lage.

Cons:

Wir hatten ein Zimmer im Neubau/Anbau, zwar hübsch und geräumig, jedoch mit unangenehmem Raumklima. Das Fenster lässt sich nur wenig öffnen, so fühlte ich mich ein bisschen "eingebunkert".

Mittelmässig
Pros:

Die Lage war super für unsere Bedürfnisse. Das Zimmer war schön und das Bett sehr bequem.

Cons:

Ich habe für zwei Personen ein Zimmer in Ihrem Hotel gebucht und auch den vollen Preis gezahlt. Leider waren im Zimmer nur Handtücher und Bettbezüge sowie ein Duvet für eine Person vorbereitet. Da wir erst spät zurückkamen und bei Bezug des Zimmers nur unsere Koffer abgestellt haben, ist uns dies erst beim Zubettgehen aufgefallen.
Die Rezeption war um 1 Uhr nachts leider nicht mehr besetzt, sodass ich den Mangel nicht melden konnte. Erst am nächsten Morgen sprach ich die Dame an der Rezeption darauf an. Statt einer kulanten Lösung wurde mir lediglich mitgeteilt, dass ich den Mangel hätte melden müssen, dann hätte ich eine zusätzliche Decke erhalten. Im System waren jedoch zwei Personen aufgeführt.
Das Frühstück war zwar nicht schlecht, entsprach aber auch nicht dem Standard, den ich erwartet hatte.
