The room was very small, and so was the bathroom. Not worth the price. But I guess this is Switzerland.

Hotel very well located, just in front of the Interlaken West train station (there are 2 train stations on town, West and Ost).
Hospitality was amazing, they even offered me a city card that gave me free transport inside of the city (and some places around) plus discount in some activities.
The room was clean and the breakfast was great.
No complains.

The hotel was across from the train station which made it very convenient. The breakfast was very good.
It would have been nice to have a washing machine.

Andrei and Julie are the best hosts. Accomodated my request for 1 room with extra bed which is not a norm in Interlaken. Very central, across the ainterlaken West and other shops and restaurants, including groceries. Will definitely come back to their hotel whenever I come back to Interlaken.
