Schönes, kostengünstiges Hotel für Ausflüge

Hatten nur eine Nacht Aufenthalt und sind nicht die klassische Zielgruppe dieser Hotelgruppe. Keine Gläser auf den Zimmern und billige Schaumfüllung bei den Kissen. Aber das ist schon das einzige was es zu bemängeln gibt. Frühstück top. Schöne Lage.

Die Lage ist natürlich Top. Nur ein paar Schritte rüber zur Gondel. Die Zimmer waren sauber und zweckmäßig. Beim Frühstück muss man sich die Eier selber machen, was ich persönlich jetzt nicht so toll finde. Die Pfannen sind für Eierspeisen überhaupt nicht geeignet und die Herdplatten werden nicht schnell heiß. außerdem steht man sich bei der Station ständig im Weg. Würde aber trotzdem jederzeit wieder buchen.
