Liked: Location, breakfast at The Pinch next store, the place was clean. Disliked: The room and hotel lobby looked nothing like the pictures. Our room was plain and ugly and uncomfortable. Parking is stacked and you have to give your keys to the front desk (not as advertised). Service carts left in the hallways all night. It felt like the staff had given up making the place seem nice in the time of COVID and low occupancy. This should be rated as a 1 star or 2 star hotel. We checked out a night early partly due to the disappointment in the room. There was a mistake in the charge, and the hotel promised to refund the money. So far, it has not come through and multiple attempts to contact them have yielded silence. Very disappointed honestly.

An older building with its share of quirks, but an extremely wonderful staff and an awesome breakfast. it also has the added benefit of being in a great location, just down the street from the historic old city and a five minute walk from the train station. Well worth the money.

The staff was extremely accommodating and helpful. I booked a one-night stay here because of a most excellent stay I had a dozen years ago. Still a wonderful staff and great breakfast, but the furnishings seem tired and worn and maybe could use a coat of paint. Nevertheless, I plan to return in a few months for a longer stay. :)

Wonderful staff!

This hotel had the nicest employees we encountered on our stay in Switzerland! All staff were friendly and helpful, giving us excellent suggestions for restaurants and sightseeing. Upon arrival, they provided a parking pass so we could leave our car on the street, as access to their lot was blocked by construction. Our room was a good size, and the beds were comfortable. They even offered a variety of pillows, which was greatly appreciated after a long flight. The bathroom was roomy and spotless, the shower pressure was terrific, and the toiletries were high quality. Happily, there was a tea kettle in the room. There were adequate outlets for charging our electronics, reading lights on both sides of the bed, and great Wifi. Breakfast was quite tasty, with ample choices, very good bread, and lattes. Extra touches were the bowl of fruit set out for guests, the bowl of candy at the reception desk, and the brightly colored hardboiled eggs at breakfast. The hotel is on a quiet street and is a short walk to the old town.

Hotel is closed when check-in

This is absolutely ridiculous, I've received all the room booking confirmation before I arrived on 24Dec, however, when I arrived there, the hotel is closed until 7Jan!!!!! I had to run around to find another hotel so that I don't need to sleep under the bridge!!! The hotel shouldn't accept any booking if they decided to shut it down completely during the festive season.
