Pros:

The room was quiet, the mattress was comfortable, the breakfast was tasty. All good, thank you!

Cons:

There were reparations works in the hotel, for example floor in the corridor was covered with plastic on top of the carpet. It didn’t create any issues, just to note

Gerne wieder beim Morgenstraich 2027
Pros:

Das Hotel ist ruhig gelegen und innert Minuten ist man mitten in der Stadt. Perfekte Lage für den "Morgenstraich". Eine Parkgarage befindet sich in unmittelbarer Lage. Frühstücksbuffet mit grosser Auswahl. Freundliches Personal. Wir haben ein 3 Bett Zimmer gebucht und waren mit dem Zimmer Nr. 4 mehr als zufrieden. Ein Erlebnis, da es 2 stöckig ist und sogar für 4 Personen geeignet und gross genug gewesen wäre. Sehr sauber.
