5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

The beauty is just like a fairly tale. Rolling hills, cattle grazing on the hillside. Quite except for the cowbells and the church bell. It’s really spectacular.

4/5 - Good

Sd

It looks to be an up and coming place with a lot of new construction happening. Because it is just 2 stops away from Luzern, I found the location to be very convenient and yet more peaceful.

4/5 - Good

Verified traveler

The breakfast could be much improved both in options and display. However offering cooked eggs was great!
