Hotel is very clean and staff are nice
Pros:

Our room is very spacious and clean. We are fully satisfied with the facility in the hotel.

Cons:

The only discomfort point is the location. The hotel is located in a crossroad with tramways and buses, so we need to close the window to avoid the noise during the night.

Ausserordentlich freundliches Personal
Tolle Lage
Gutes Frühstück
Es hat sogar eine Bar im Haus und eine Minibar

Cons:

Die Badezimmertür ist ungewöhnlich eng - man stösst sich regelmässig, weil man sich breitere Türen gewöhnt ist 😅
