Lovely location and staff af Hotel Appenzell.
Pros:

The location was absolutely perfect and there was ample parking, which made our lives a lot easier. The staff was incredibly kind, and they were even able to clean our room quickly to allow an early check in. They communicated through booking and took great care of us! The room was more modern than we were expecting, which was very nice, and the view from our windows was mind blowing!!

Cons:

The breakfast experience was a little confusing, but once we found where we were supposed to be, the food was tasty. Our key card also stopped working a few hours after we checked in, but that was a minor inconvenience that was quickly resolved.
