self-service check-in hot coffee storage space warm room time slot slow warm water

the self-service check-in and out was easy. i found great hot coffee from the vending machine. there was loads of storage space in the room for my luggage.

the room was very warm. there were few options to ventilate it or cool it down. the shower had a time slot that i had to reactivate every 20 seconds. warm water was very slow to appear.

loved the Matterhorn view!

quick communication baby cot smooth check-in

Peaky riders. communication was quick and helpful, a real plus. we needed a baby cot, and they provided one without any fuss, such a relief. checking in and out was super smooth. the gym next door was perfect for a quick workout. I loved that convenience.

The room felt a little small. It was difficult for two people to move around comfortably at the same time. this was inconvenient.

The room was clean and tidy. I appreciated the easy check-in and check-out process. There were disposable cups available for use.

The shower included a button to keep the water running and it was inconvenient. The water pressure was weak in the morning. The bed was too high for me.
