Nice
Pros:

The breakfast had everything you'd expect, which was pretty good. There's a grocery store across the street where you can buy some snacks. It's also not far to catch a mountain cable or go to the waterfront, which is convenient.

Cons:

Need take bus to Hotel

Una giornata a Lugano
Pros:

Personale gentile e competente. Colazione varia abbondante . Posizione e parcheggio. La presenza di bibite e acqua gratuita ,una gentilezza molto gradita .

Cons:

Stanze molto datate tappezzeria macchiata e rovinata , spugne del bagno usurate ,con un bagno da ristrutturare, il wc si trova vicinissimo al marmo del lavabo , la vasca con un vetro installato per poter ricavare una doccia scomoda con un doccino minuscolo . La pulizia della stanza non e al massimo .
Andrebbe insonorizzata ,la vicinanza della strada si sente parecchio .

Schöner Aufenthalt, mit besonderem Ambiente
Pros:

Sehr nettes Personal. Tolles Frühstück. Spezielles Ambiente. Der Garten/ Umschwung ist sehr schön. Bushaltestelle in der Nähe. Kleine Aufmerksamkeiten auf dem Bett. Toller Ausblick vom Balkon.

Cons:

Der Duft im Hotel. Es gibt viele Duftflaschen. Allerdings reagiere ich sensibel auf starke Düfte.

כללית בסדר,לשים לב על ההערות ויהיה מושלם.
Pros:

ארוחת בוקר טובה,מיטות נוחות,צוות בסדר.

Cons:

חיפשתי בבוקינג חדר עם מזגן,אבל מתברר שלא מפעילים מזגן באוקטובר,למרות שבאמצע היום מאוד חם.אז החליפו לנו חדר לחדר יותר מאוורר,פינתי.הסברתי להם שמזגן מפעילים שחם,לא לפי תאריך.בחדר המשודרג מכסה השרותים היה שבור.בכניסה הראשית למלון היו חסרות בלטות והיה ממש מסוכן...אמרו שזה ידוע ומטפלים.
