I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, surprisingly quiet too. The service was friendly, and the staff helped us with printing documents, although my Accor hotels membership card was not accepted. The location was great for those arriving by car with easy access to the highway and close proximity to Fribourg and Bern. The dining experience was good, with the option to dine until midnight. It's a decent place to stay for its value.

I had a mixed experience at the Swiss Ibis. The rooms were like new and spacious but had a strong smell of smoke that seemed to be coming from the AC. The service was friendly, especially after a tough sports event. The location was convenient for travelers with cars but a bit challenging to identify. The dining was average with nothing special but good for a quick stay. Overall, a decent hotel with some room for improvement.

When I arrived late, the hotel had a good atmosphere for a drink and provided several areas to sit. The rooms were spacious, clean, and functional, but a bit too small for a family of three. The staff was very professional, even after a sports event, and stayed friendly throughout my stay. The location was easy to find and convenient for accessing nearby places. The dining experience was very basic, with standard European fare. Overall, the hotel offered clean and comfortable accommodation, great for a short stay.

My stay at this hotel was truly delightful. The room had a lovely balcony overlooking the gardens and was just a short walk from the old town. The room was spacious, looked new with a nice design, and was impeccably clean. However, it had a slight downside of feeling like a smoker's room.
