Mukava ja toimiva majoitus hyvällä sijainnilla, pienellä viiveellä sisäänkirjautumisessa.
Pros:

Majoitus oli siisti ja toimiva, ja sijainti hyvä. Alakerran pizzeria oli todella hyvä ja helppo vaihtoehto ruokailuun. Iso plussa myös siitä, että moottoripyörät sai turvallisesti parkkiin sisäpihalle, mikä toi mielenrauhaa reissuun.

Cons:

Sisäänkirjautuminen oli muuten helppo, mutta PIN-koodin saapuminen sovellukseen/sähköpostiin kesti hieman odotettua pidempään.

Una notte a Lugano in GuestHouse University.
Pros:

Ottima struttura, con una posizione perfetta, vicino al centro ma anche vicina al lago,molto pulita ed accogliente, lo staff gentilissimo: al check out avevamo dimenticato all interno una giacca ed immediatamente hanno contrattato il personale di servizio per farci aprire e recuperarla. Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. Non ci sono difficoltà per trovare parcheggio per la macchina .

Cons:

È stato tutto OK.

Not family friendly and way too pricy for what you get
Pros:

It was clean, easy access and the cleaning lady very nice.

Cons:

They knew I was traveling alone with a baby and out me on a second floor room with no elevator. The frying pan is very consumed and cancerous, you cannot cook on that. The kitchen supplies were minimum, making it impossible to leave the place clean (no detergent, no drying rack or towels, no extra trash bags etc). The light in the bathroom was minimum. There wasn’t even a TV
