Fantastic Stay with Great Amenities!

convenient location beautiful view delicious wine
The hotel's location near the train station was very convenient. The pool area has a beautiful view of the city and mountains. I really liked the outside restaurant that was located in the palm trees! They make their own wine on site, and I recommend it.
I wished there were coffee machines with supplies in the rooms. I like to have coffee in the morning! It's a small thing, but it would have been nice.
Rooms

The room was clean and tidy. It had comfy beds and excellent air-con. I had a balcony, and it had a fantastic view over the town and lake. The wifi worked perfectly too. That was important to me.

The pool was just the right temperature. There is also a separate but nearby children's play area. The hotel has lovely shaded gardens all around. We loved the pool. but the breakfast terrace was amazing!

The breakfast had a good choice in a spacious room. It was airy and light.
My room faced the train tracks and i heard a lot of noise. It was difficult to relax. i also felt surprised by the cost of drinks before i saw the menu, and a few aperol spritz ended up costing 80 chf.

adequate stay with notable drawbacks

slow drain insufficient cooling
I found a couple of issues that need addressing. the bathroom drain was slow, inconvenient. also, the air conditioning unit in my room struggled to maintain a comfortable temperature, despite attempts to adjust it. this made for an uncomfortably warm night. The cooling was not sufficient.
