No bathroom

This isn’t a hotel but a hostel. There is no shower or bathroom in the room. I never seen any like that in over 20 years. It’s unacceptable especially since it wasn’t disclosed before arrival! The staff were friendly and the location was good. But also No (real) parking, meaning you had to park public which required resets g the parking clock every 1.5 hours. I made it work for me since I could park at my friends house but the fact that nothing of this is properly disclosed prior is terrible!!

Nightmare!!!! Imagine, you drive long hours, naturally tired, rain starts heavier, Swiss cell is 256 kbs, and when you are finally “home” ready to relax there is nobody home!!! That is correct - NOBODY. Door is locked, no lights inside, phone is not dead, you can hear it rings, but nobody answers! Not even an answering machine! Not a joke!!!

Hotel economico ma pulito e comodo. Si potrebbe risparmiare di più prenotando direttamente in albergo, visto che il valore della mia camera era di circa 20 CHF rispetto a quanto mi è stato fatturato da Hotels.com

Varm velkomst

Fint hotel til prisen. Meget rent. En ventilator ville gøre underværker når temperaturen er over 30 grader. Lidt forvirring omkring betaling, men vi fandt ud af det. Dejligt sted at spise.

Da wir Termine für Wohnungsbesichtigungen hatten sind wir kaum so wirklich tagsüber im Hotel geblieben. Ist aber auch gut so da man die Parkuhr stündlich umstellen müsste. Ansonsten joa sind wir eigentlich Oke gestimmt mit dem Zimmer gewesen.

Zimmer mit gutem Preis/Leistungsverhältnis

Einfaches Zimmer (Zi 3 im dritten Stock), etwas klein, aber für mich und den Preis in Ordnung, Bad und Toilette auf dem Flur, beides sehr sauber. Das Frühstück konnte ich nicht probieren, weil es erst ab 8h serviert wird. Internet war im Prinzip schnell, hatte bei mir kleinere Aussetzer. Die Bewohner der Zimmer nebenan waren rücksichtsvoll, sodass ich auch gut geschlafen habe, obwohl ich lärmempfindlich bin.

Altes Haus, welches beim Gehen schön KrickKrack macht. Die Zimmer sind renoviert, mit viel Platz zum Verstauen. Das WC und die Dusche sind sind auf dem Stock, aber nicht im Zimmer. Das Hotel liegt direkt unter der Festung Aarburg. Bushaltestelle vor dem Hotel.
