Great location, very close to the train station and a 10 min walk to the old town. The room was quiet, everything in the room worked well. Free water and coffee available in the lobby 24/7. The only downside was the tiny size of the room- 3 adults had to take turns opening our suitcases. Breakfast at 15 CHF was okay.

The only thing I’d have to say is that the bathroom smelled like sewage every time we left the room and came back. It was like it needed to air out or something, and then it was fine. Otherwise, everything was great!

A very average hotel that needs room improvements.
I was allocated a room where the toilet seat was dislodged and the blind was broken. I was told the hotel was full but eventually manged to find me another room. Cleanliness is average and aircon units in the room are not effective. The tea, coffee and water in the lobby are a nice touch.

Beware, must have hotel travel pass!!
Hotel stay was great, very close to station and central. Unfortunately we were advised at reception that travel to airport was free on train and even though we showed our online booking to the train conductor, we were charged 96 Swiss francs as we did not have hotel pass. Please make other travellers aware!!

Super location, two minutes from the station, continue another three to the lake. Wonderful staff, clean, airy, modern. Very large room for what I paid. Only downside being that I had a (locked, obviously) connecting door to the next room that wasn't particularly soundproofed. Otherwise all very good.

Great location at a very affordable rate. The only complaint was that the bath tub is so high that it’s a hazard to get off the tub.

Unfortunately, my experience here was far from satisfactory due to serious safety concerns that made it impossible for me to stay. Upon arriving at the hotel just after midnight, we were yelled at by individuals loitering outside the premises. This was the first indication that the area surrounding the hotel was very unsafe. Upon checking into our room, we discovered that the safety lock was broken. Concerned for our security, I went downstairs to inform the staff and request a room change. To my surprise, the receptionist informed me that all the rooms in the hotel had their locks removed, a baffling and unacceptable practice that raised serious red flags regarding the safety and security of guests. Despite my insistence on the necessity of a secure accommodation, the staff seemed indifferent to our concerns, offering no viable solutions or assurances of safety. This utter lack of regard for guest safety is very concerning. Faced with such disregard for basic safety measures, we made the difficult decision to leave the hotel immediately, despite having already paid in full for our stay. The experience left us feeling vulnerable and exposed, and we were forced to seek alternative accommodations at great inconvenience and expense. I urge management to address these issues promptly and implement measures to ensure the safety and well-being of all guests.
