Perto de tudo. Fácil de chegar
Ótima localização. Bom café da manhã. Quarto bem grande, confortável e silencioso. O banheiro é estranho, chuveiro apertado e o box do meu chuveiro estava quebrado

Unterkunft direkt am Bhf Locarno.
Grosse, saubere Suite (zwei Erwachsene, zwei Kinder) ohne Verstauungsmöglichkeiten.
Tolle Lage, zuvorkommendes Personal an der Reception, durchgehend kostenlos Kaffee, Frühstück klein aber ok
Wir kommen gerne wieder zurück.
