Pros:

Tren istasyonu çok yakın.

Cons:

Tren istasyonuna çok yakın, konfor açısından çok vasat, fiyat olanak dengesi çok zayıf. Mürrende kalmak isteyenler daha iyi bir yer bakmalarını tavsiye olunur derim. Otele giriş 16.00 , otelden çıkış saati 10.00. , lobi ve resepsiyon hizmeti yok. Biz 3. Katta kaldık. Holün lambaları bozuktu. Sonuç olarak lauterbraunende hiç yer bulamazsanız kalabilirsiniz.

Absolut unentspannt und das für 90 Franken!
Pros:

Außer der Lage nichts.

Cons:

Bad - Dusche defekt; WLAN extrem schwach, Klientel im Haus - sehr merkwürdig. Alles extrem renovierungsbedürftig und das für diesen hohen Preis ! Das hat mich wirklich enttäuscht.

Pros:

I liked the instant sense of community. Shared kitchen & bathrooms. Great stay.

Cons:

I'm a big mug person, and I didn't care for the little teacups...Just a personal bias!😊

Parcheggio privato sul retro per massimo 3 auto. Posizione ottima, anche la sera per fare una passeggiata vicino alla cascata

Cons:

Zone comuni trasandate, cucina sporca e rovinata, bagno vecchio con tavoletta water usurata. Posto poco curato, porte cingolati.

Pros:

Ideal for a short stay in Lauterbrunnen on a budget. The only way to stay in this valley any cheaper would be either camping or sharing a dormitory in the youth hostel. Well equipped communal kitchen on each floor, and the shared toilet was fine.

Cons:

The room was small and quite hot (I was on the top floor), but did the job! Doors/walls aren't very sound proof.

Very disappointing and misleading stay This place felt like a scam.
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

This place felt like a scam. A lady handed me the key and then suddenly disappeared, leaving me to figure everything out myself. The room is on the 3rd floor with no elevator, which is very inconvenient, especially with luggage.

The bathroom was also in terrible condition. There was no proper shower, and the bathroom was constantly wet and unpleasant to use. The overall place felt old, poorly maintained, and unhygienic.

Very disappointing experience. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a clean, comfortable, and properly managed hotel.
