Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This is a limited to no service hotel. Reception closed for check-in, which is a first for me. Miniscule shower. Poorly maintained. Antiquated. Noisy. Tiny desk with mismatched chair. Electrical outlets in the wrong places. This should be considered a one-star hotel and priced accordingly. I can offer only two positives about this hotel - hardwood floors and towel heater.

Nettes Zimmer mit allem drum und dran. Lage nach Hinterhof wo du jedes Wort deiner Nachbarn hörst. Aber wenn es dunkel wird, wird es auch ruhiger. Sehr nettes Personal im Hotel. Zentral gelegen und Busse direkt beim Bahnhof. Fribourg hat uns sehr gut gefallen.

Une nuit agréable

Un hôtel très confortable, bien placé et une dame charmante à l'accueil. La nuit a été reposante sur une literie confortable. La décoration est soignée et la chambre était propre. La chambre est néanmoins assez petite, tout comme la douche. Attention cependant à bien vous y prendre à l'avance pour réserver le parking : il n'y avait plus de place ; le stationnement est limité à trois heures dans le quartier. Privilégiez le parking souterrain sous la Migros (situé à 100 mètres en bas de la rue).

The room/studio wasn't that nice. The location is rather dark and the furniture isn't of any high quality, which is a point for improvement. The staff however is very friendly and the breakfast is fine. Parking can be an issue, cause there are only limited (very small and narrow !) spaces available.

Für eine Nacht ok

Parkplatz Möglichkeit in der Tiefgarage ist super. Sollte vorher reserviert werden. Das Frühstücksbuffet ist vielfältig. Die Zimmer sind viel zu stark geheizt und leider wirklich extrem ringhörig.
