All in all a nice place
Pros:

All fine and near station and near Lake Leman and public transport links. Quiet

Cons:

Glass sliding door to bathroom - very noisy if you got up in the night and also no privacy when using the loo! Maybe ok if you are a couple but not great if you are just sharing with a travel friend. Breakfast a bit mean.

Sadece konum iyiiydi..
Pros:

Oda genişti bunu beğendim ve en beğendiğim şey otelde sadece konum... saç kurutma makinesi gayet iyiydi

Cons:

Kahve makinası var ama kahve ücretli satılıyor tanesi 1,50 Frank. Odada terlik yok. Kaldığım süre boyunca odadan copler dahi alınmadı. Odaya girerken 100 frank depozito aldılar dönüşte onu verdiler fakat ben oteli ödedim ödemede şehir vergisi dahil olduğu halde 25 frank şehir vergisi yine de aldılar bu aldıkları haksız kazançtı.

Charming hotel in a great location!
Pros:

We loved the location! Just 5 minutes from the bus and train stations, in a quiet neighborhood, and within walking distance of everywhere we wanted to go. It was the perfect spot for exploring the area while still enjoying a peaceful stay.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing
