日本の常識でホテルを選んではダメ
Pros:

なんといっても、立地ですね。
駅ちか
河畔で素晴らしい風景
食べるとこかいっぱい

Cons:

空調無し　窓を開けて寝ると、窓の下の酔っぱらいの騒音寝れない。
冷蔵庫がないので、ビールの部屋飲みが缶ビール一本が限界。

Pros:

Konumu çok iyiydi. Odanın manzarası çok güzeldi. Oda büyüktü.

Cons:

Girişte pub'daki personel inanılmaz kaba ve suratı asıktı. Bavullarımızı alan sarışın hanımefendi gayet kibardı, hatta pub'daki hanımefendi ona bile kaba davrandı. Oda tam temiz değildi. Nehir kenarında olduğu için içerisinde sinek ve çeşit çeşit böcekler mevcuttu biraz huylandık.

值得推薦
Pros:

我很喜歡這裡的員工
他們很可愛也很有耐心~
這裡的位置真的很好，甚至窗台就可以看見卡貝爾橋
窗戶關上就蠻安靜的，房間內有準備兩台電扇，還有熱水壺，一切簡單但方便😃
由於我們住的是一樓，從另一側進入不需要電梯，對於帶著大行李箱來說，是很適合的安排。

Cons:

如果是熱浪來襲的時候，可能會覺得不舒適
冰箱留有上一位房客的食物，不過可以請清潔人員幫忙收走~

Best view in Lucern!
Pros:

Best view in Lucern! Loved the Juliette balcony and extra seating with other windows. We had two rooms side by side and it was perfect for our family.
Seperate exit in the back so you don't need to go through the pub if you don't want to.
It was very warm yes, but we expected that. They had a few fans in each room to help and the open windows were nice.
Staff in pub are all great too!
