Fonctionnel, agréable, mais beaucoup trop cher pour ce que c'est.
Pros:

La chambre était très propre, présence d'une machine à café avec des capsules offertes. Le lit est très confortable. Présence de stores en plus des rideaux assombrissants. Petit déjeuner bon.

Cons:

L'emplacement est proche de la vieille ville, mais à côté de la route et donc bruyant si on ouvre la fenêtre. La chambre est claire mais n'a aucun cachet: c'est fonctionnel, mais froid et sans aucune fioriture. Pas de jardin. Le petit déjeuner est bon, mais pas exceptionnel (pain décongelé par exemple). Pour le prix, ce n'est pas suffisant. Si nous avions payé 120.- à 140.- la nuit, nous aurions été très satisfaits. Le prix payé est donc trop élevé pour les prestations offertes.

Top Lage im schönen Aarau
Pros:

Freundliches Personal, gutes Bett, tolle Lage.

Cons:

Wir hatten ein Zimmer im Neubau/Anbau, zwar hübsch und geräumig, jedoch mit unangenehmem Raumklima. Das Fenster lässt sich nur wenig öffnen, so fühlte ich mich ein bisschen "eingebunkert".
