10/10 Excellent
"Quaint place near all of the sights. Good access to the mountain towns and Interlaken. Parking was a little tough on occasion, but the room was nice and staff was great. Pool has best view of any pool we've ever seen. Breakfast was also very good. Would stay here again (and they're installing A/C right now)."
