We arrived later. Were able to get our key only due to another person who came and helped - a little stressful but the stay wasok. Nice shower. Could use extra pillows.
Die Unterkunft ist sehr geschmackvoll und sauber eingerichtet. Das Personal sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Auch ist man schneller in Bern als wenn man in Bern wohnt und durch die Stadt fahren muss. Eine sehr positive Erfahrung, ich werde gerne wieder dorthin gehen.
