Review by hotel critic
The room was spacious and undeniably warm, creating a cozy atmosphere, especially on those chilly nights in the Alps. The shower facilities were clean, which is always a priority for me when I'm away from home. The room did come with certain quirks. I found the heating system a bit inconsistent and the flat-screen TV wasn't functional during my stay. The toilet door was also in need of repair, which was a bit of a letdown. I had the opportunity to enjoy an Indian curry from a nearby spot called India Queen - definitely a highlight! Despite some challenges, the hotel's location near the river and park offered lovely walking paths, making it appealing for nature lovers.
