wonderful location and friendly staff

great locationpleasant staffspacious roomseparate storage
the hotel boasts a great location near the lake and rhone river. the staff members were pleasant and helpful. my beautiful double room was quite spacious , with two distinct areas. i especially appreciated the separate storage room adjacent to the bedroom.
the hotel needs some updating , as the decor felt dated and somewhat worn.
