    I did not find a safe in the room to lock my valuables in. This was not a problem for me, as I carried my important things with me during the day, but it may be for general tourists.

    Besides bed, table and bathroom the room also includes a large refrigerator and a kitchen fascility. The room was cleaned everyday. The location is in the center of the old town and rather close to the station. In the evening the street in front of the hotel is quite lively which give a good atmosphere.

    It was not a problem, but worth noted: the reception was closed in the evening (access to the hotel with your room key) and on Sunday morning.

    Great location, the room was simple and clean, with everything needed.

    The building/room could use some renovation: eg. shutters on the window are broken, the stove is not working. Though this didn't influence our stay at all.

    Central location, wifi, calm, everything is very convenient. The room is big, feels rather like a studio apartment - with a table and small kitchen, including a fridge and a kettle. This way we didn't need to pay additionally for breakfast (15chf is not cheap). I definitely recommend.

    There was no safety box and as the room was next to the elevator, I could hear it working but this wasn’t a big deal. There weren’t any toiletries.

    The location is great, 10 mn from the train station and the room. The fact that there were a huge fridge as well as a tea kettle, this was very useful.

    Decent hotel in centre of Fribourg.

    Breakfast is too expensive for what it is: basic and no warm buffet on offer (though the lady on duty was present and helpful). The reception is only very limited available and was not there in the morning for check-out (I left at about 9.45). If you need an invoice make sure you ask for it at check-in). Price-quality is not quite in balance, yet it was one of the less expensive hotels, especially in the central zone.

    Good location - spacious room which even contained a hidden kitchen, ample cabinet space. Comfortable bed and good shower.

    The music at breakfast was loud and nerve-wrecking. Do such institution not realise that one prefers to eat breakfast in a quiet surrounding?

    The room, location, price, and cleanliness was very good value for such a Swiss town.

    It would be very convenient, if there were a wall plug near the table, so that I could charge my PC, while using it there. But it's not an essential problem as there are a few plugs in the room.

    Ideal location. Clean room. Overall, quite satisfactory.

    Great stay in a central location

    I was surprised there was no aircon and it was so hot this August. There was no fan available when asked the reception staff. I guess that you didn't expect this extreme heat in Switzerland in the past. I had to keep the windows open to get air in to the room but there was so much noise at night from party near by after 11pm! I didn't order breakfast at the hotel as there was not much options for vegans and not worth extra money.

    Great location from the main Friourg station which was a few minutes walk away. I used trains to go to other town/ city, so it was so convenient and also there is a little Ice cream shop in front of the hotel with many Vegan options! All clean, tidy and hidden kitchenette was just a bonus although the cooker was out of order.

    We had a kitchen with stove, but it was out of order unfortunately, we would have preferred to be able to make use of it. Also, pillows of the bed were extremely voluminous and hard, making them uncomfortable to sleep on. When we asked for different ones, we were told there were no alternatives. Pricy but not more than regular prices for the area.

    beautiful room fully equipped, new and renovated. Hotel is in excellent location right in the heart of the town just by Georges Python square. We had room service every day with fresh towels.

    Nothing very much to dislike, although there was a fair bit of late-night noise from the road outside - some high spirits, perhaps, but the double-glazing was effective.

    It was more than adequate, and the room comfortable and convenient.
