Prezzo esagerato in struttura non adeguata in posizione troppo esposta agli schiamazzi notturni
Pros:

La posizione centrale

Cons:

I notevoli schiamazzi notturni durati fino alle 3 di notte nei vari locali bar proprio sotto l’hotel

Newly refurbished but no elevator and lots of stairs, no accommodation for dietary restrictions
Pros:

It’s newly refurbished and well located in Thun

Cons:

To access the apartment they gave me I had to go up to three floors of stairs by myself with my suitcases, the last one was more like a ladder, no lift. I asked for a vegan option and they basically got me a sandwich with lettuce and peppers, no protein or any decent alternative. They chased me shouting on the street because they forgot to charge me 4 francs of city tax, instead of politely sending me an invoice

Absolut OK wenn man keine zu hohen Ansprüche hat.
Pros:

Die Lage ist relativ gut gelegen. Das Hotel ist leider direkt bei einem Kreisverkehr und daher etwas laut auf dem Balkon. Wenn Die Türen / Fensster zu sind ist es aber recht gut isoliert. Bus stop direkt vor der Türe. Kaffe zum Frühstück kann bestellt werden, von Kaffe, Espressi über Schale, Milchkaffe und Cappunino. Guter Kaffee.

Cons:

Da Badezimmer mit WC ist sehr klein (vor allem die Breite auf dem Klo) und das Lavabo ist im Zimmer, nicht im Badezimmer. Beleuchttung dürfte etwas besser sein, das Zimmer wie auch der Flur ist nur leicht beleuchtet.
Beim Frühstück wären Spiegel- Eier oder Rührei schön gewesen. Es hat zwar rohe Eier zum selber Kochen, aber braucht dann halt lange.

Good stay in a peaceful town
Pros:

The room is quite large. Breakfast is quite standard, but good quality. The location is very good, right next to the castle and a short walk from the city centre.

Cons:

The mattress was quite hard.
