Staffs are very friendly and cooperative. Breakfast was very nice. Lakeside view is mesmerizing experience and we loved it. - We missed some room cleaning and in our room WiFi connection was not smooth ( lakeside view). In fact, could not use WiFi at all inside the room. Very far away from Zurich center (40 min by train ). One way ticket 🎫 is about 12€and up down around 24€/adult. It’s very expensive. ##### Rumpa Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Wanda Sep 11, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort It was fine.

Very inexpensive, an easy train ride into Zurich city center and airport, right next to the train station, right on the lake, with a beautiful lakeside park just out the door. Staff are very friendly and helpful, even though I only spoke english. Everything was extremely clean, including rooms, bathrooms, showers, and common areas. The included breakfast was extremely good. This place is just as good as fancy hotels that cost five times more. ##### Mark Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Iren Anna Oct 3, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fantastisch Wunderschönes Ort.
