Als Zwischenstop für eine Nacht aufgrund des Preises zu empfehlen.
Pros:

Das Zimmer war sauber und für den Schweizer-Preis in Ordnung.

Cons:

Das Frühstück hat gesättigt, war aber bezüglich der Auswahl der Speisen sehr sparsam. So waren die Aufbackbrötchen sehr klein und das Frühstücksei musste man sich selber kochen.

Pros:

Breakfast was nice. The guy who helped serving breakfast was very friendly and helpful

Cons:

The receptionist wasn't very friendly. The room was extremely warm. Beds were very uncomfortable, we didn't sleep the whole night. We couldn't also open the balcony door because we were sharing balconies with other rooms.

Die sehr gute Lage zu den Seespielen hat alles aufgewertet. Preis/Leistung ist nicht optimal.
Pros:

gute Lage

Cons:

Beim Frühstück war nach 9.00 Uhr nicht mehr alles vorhanden, z. B. genügend grosse Teller, der Service des Kaffees war auch sehr langsam am 18.07., am 19.07. wars besser.
Kaputte Vorhänge im Zimmer Nr. 12. Beim TV kam die Meldung keine Daten vorhanden.

Nicht empfehlenswert
Pros:

Nähe zum See und zur Bühne

Cons:

Zimmer sehr laut (Strasse), sehr warm (unter dem Dach).
Das Bettgestell aus Stahl hat bei jeder Bewegung so gelärmt, dass ich nicht schlafen konnte.
