“The kitchen staff are so lovely and kind and the food is incredible, I’d really recommend getting a half plate dinner as compared to other places within the area, it’s good for price and delicious. The main staff are also lovely but not reliably...” - Fennell

“Helpful staff. Good location on the edge of city. Well connected by a frequent bus which cost nothing with the free visitors pass. Or you could walk. Very close to Rotsee, an attractive lake amidst greenery. Good breakfast. Comfortable beds.”
