the pool is quite nice; the hotel had booked us a parking place for free in the garage and also gave us a free welcome drink. The person at the reception spoke some french and was very helpful.

Great location as base for exploring surrounding area just a short walk to train/bus stations, as well as to grocery store Coop and many restaurants around. quiet with beautiful inner courtyard. There's someone at reception during the day, except weekend. The host was very quick to respond. There's laundry room at the property with a metered washer and dryer which was convenient. Just ask for coins at reception. Note that each coin will operate the washer or dryer for 30 minutes so just use more coins as necessary. Just a note for those coming in summer months, there's no aircon, didn't matter when I was there.

I loved the whole experience there! To begin with the hotel location: superbe!! We had the room facing the Lake, very comfortable, everything that we needed was there, super comfortable bed and pillows. The staff members were so friendly, they also speek several languages so that was practical too :) Breakfast so delicious (i loved the cappucino and the eggs) The hotel staff gave us also Ticino reisepass (free tickets for trains and bus in all ticino canton! So we used them to go and visit lugano also). And they gave us also 10% reduction card for one of the very delicious italian restaurant near the hotel. Win-win stay :) I strongly recommend it :)

Great location, and one of the few "budget" options in this area. There were many people checking in at the same time, but they were working really fast and making sure everyone gets their room as quick as possible. Great working team.
