Robert

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
We were never greeted on check in or during our 2 day stay. Staff were very unwelcoming. The bathroom shower drain was extremely slow causing water buildup, the light level was very poor, the door wouldn’t close properly, and the shower head was broken. The 2 chairs in the room were very musty and VERY uncomfortable. However, the breakfast was good. Bottom line — we would neither recommend this hotel or ever stay here again.

Very cute area with a beautiful view with surrounding mountains. Easy to get around but transportation tends to close early and taxis are costly. Enjoyed our stay but they serve the same exact breakfast every day. After the 3rd day, it starts to get old. Worth the price.

Nice quiet location

This property is in a nice quiet spot with parking and continental breakfast. Bedroom was adequate, comfy big bed although only a shower in the bath, not able to stand up in shower. Easy walking distance of the village and train station. Wish we had more time to explore the area and would have happily have stayed longer if we were able to.

Scooby Doo hotel. Staff are not friendly. The gentleman could not speak English. He only spoke Ukrainian. Great bubbling brook outside. Reason I wouldn’t stay again is staff is flat out mean.

I’m pretty sure this is a family ran hotel. First, you open the door and get a musty smell in the air. Next, you go up the stairs into your room and there’s no AC, there isn’t even a screen window and there are lots of mosquitoes. At night you’ll be sweating because of the humid heat. Also, the boss has a really bad attitude. This was the worst hotel we’ve ever stayed at in our 20 days in Europe. It's very frustrating.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful property. Clean rooms, comfortable beds, hot water for showers. Only 10 minute bus/train into Interlaken, bus stop is very close walking distance to property. Hotel is right by the river and you can listen to the river at night- lovely! Breakfast was great. I would highly recommend staying here if you are planning a trip to Interlaken.

Quaint

Quiet area, easy access to the trains and exploring the sights. Very quaint Inn. Room was way to hot and leaving an outside door open all night invited bugs and uncomfortable. Even a fan in the room might get have helped. Poor lighting in the bathroom. Good breakfast l, homemade bread was amazing

Very quiet, safe, beautiful neighbourhood! Must see neighbourhood in this area. Would stay again. Difficult to figure out how to check in initially, as the front door was locked and no entry instructions were left in the booking; but pressed an intercom button and was let in. Reception desk has limited hours, however there is a phone available at the desk to call a staff member to the desk, usually only takes a minute or two for this, so is still super convenient and easy! Wifi was good, bed was comfortable, shower had good pressure. Gorgeous building, very neat place to stay. Staff were friendly. Breakfast included, and was delicious, coffee as well. Close to train station, 2 stops (5 mins) into town, or a 30 minute walk. Such a gorgeous area, highly recommend. I totally would stay here again if in the area! And would recommend anyone to stay here too :)!

The hotel has the best view, lovely aesthetic place to stay. Great location. Good breakfast. Check out time is quite strict and not flexible, faced some last minute issues because of it. The first floor balcony room doesn't have a secure door , which makes it unsafe. Recommend the hotel to fix this ensuring a better stay. Saying all this , I still highly recommend this place.
