Marcel Baur

21 April 2010 Marcel would recommend this property

Liked: Close to the Center of Locarno and easy to find. Friendly Staff who helped changing my Reservation, when we found out that we accidentally booked a bunk bed room instead of a doublebed one. only cost like +15CHF more per Night and Person; but the other Room was about twice as large, had bed linen on it already plus a bathroom and balcony! I'd say it's very worth getting ;) Other than that, good Breakfast Buffet and the Coffee Vendor Machine can be used free of cost during that Time; very nice indeed. We didn't stay there during the Day, but it surely feels more like a Hotel rather than 'just' a Hostel.
