Interlaken is one of my favorite places in the world and we always come back every year. Every year we stayed in different places always looking a cheap accomodation (specially nowadays with this well-known world financial crisis when every penny has to be spent carefully) well this time we ended up in this motel located in Wilderswil. Well, first of all is necessary to move with a car (if travelling with public transportation this is not the place to stay).

The location is in Wilderswil (a bit far from Interlaken but not too far if driving a car) is a good place to start for day trips to the mountains Lauterbrunnen, Grindewald, or back to Interlaken to visit other interesting areas close by both lakes.

Outside the entrance of the motel there are signs at the reception window with a phone number that have to call if wanted a room (the personel is not always present) and shows that the rate is Sfr45.00 p/p room only (no breakfast). The surroundings look abbandoned, the pool is out of order. Luckily somebody from the motel came by and we asked to show us the rooms. Is an American type motel where you can park the car directly in front of your room door.

The rooms are spacious, clean with clean sheets, has a sofa (or third bed), table, chair, seems furnished from the early 80's and never renewed since those days. There was a tv (not working!) and a radio. The bathroom was clean and in good shape (this bathroom was much better that the other economic hotel we stayed in Matten in the past) had enough toilet paper and clean towels. For meals, the restaurant "Luna Piccante" is just right in front of the motel and for breakfast nearby there is a bakery that offers coffee (or any other hot beverage) and croissant for Sfr 3.00, but since I like hearty breakfasts we preferred to go to downtown Interlaken.

I would say this is a good place to stay (just to sleep because there is nothing to do there in the surroundings) and safe some francs. Somebody suggested us to stay in hostels (but we are not so hostel type) or in tent (we saw an ad of a place that costs Sfr 33.00 p/p maybe to be considered in the future) since we are always looking a cheap place to stay but so far we found this motel really not too bad, a place to sleep like a hotel room and cheap why not?
