“This 2-star hotel in Lucerne strikes a chord with its practical advantages: a location near the train station and the old town simplifies exploring. Clean rooms and a satisfactory breakfast provide reliable comfort, while its affordability in an otherwise expensive city definitely stands out. For unfussy travelers, it presents a solid base.”
