Wonderful Terrace

This hotel was in a location easy to walk to all of old town Zürich. We had a little trouble finding it and the cobblestone was being worked on outside their doors. Once there we had the cutest terrace loft. What a great find. Don’t let the journey there dissuade you. Good breakfast, clean, nice shower and comfortable bed.

The ladies from the reception is very helpful and friendly. Our main concern is the shower which is very small and no door making the bathroom all wet when showering. The room size is small but cozy. The air conditioning is not that cool. The location is very good, near the main attraction of the Old Town and accessible to the tram and train stations. Overall we like our stay.

The worst hotel I've ever been to. The room is in an arctic. When you get out of bed, you have to do it on your knees because you'll hit your head. In the bathroom, when you take a shower, the water comes out all over the floor. You have to put a towel so it doesn't get into the room. You can't leave anything on the shelves because they get wet. The safe is in the apartment and the TV doesn't work. Don't stay in room #56.
