The location was great for going up Mythen. There was some noise from the street at night, but that was partly due to needing to sleep with the window open to get air in to cool the very stuffy room!

The hotel/hostel is situated in a beautiful surroundings, where the Swiss Alps begin. In the vicinity are mountains Mythen, Rigi, Fronalpstock (above Stoos) and the lake Lucerne (Vierwaldstättersee). Free parking, free WiFi, welcome drink. The room was clean and recently renovated (still a light smell of a paint). Two single beds next to each other where very comfortable by themselves, but the gap between them was somewhat disturbing. Bedclothes new and fresh.
The bathroom in the room was tiny, however had all basics: WC, sink+shelf+mirror, shower (with curtain and small shelf for soaps), a set of towels (2 bath, 2 hand, 1 foot), places to hang towels, soap/shampoo (at the reception).
There is also a common kitchen on another floor, but we didn't use it.
Host is very friendly.
Inconveniences, but not dramatic: tiny bathroom, sometimes a light smell of smoke in the corridor, no elevator.

I first day I had the entire 4bed mixed dorm to myself. Was nice not having to use a locker as I felt secure with the room key. The location was close to the bus stop which was useful.
The bathrooms smelled funny/bad. There was no aircon, which I expect, however it was quite hot and if you opened the windows to let fresh air in the mosquitos and bugs immediately found their way to feast on you.

This is one of the best b&b's I stayed so far, there's optional lending of a hair dryer, the rooms were comfy & clean, the food (dinner) in the pub is really good and all the staff members are super friendly and helpful.
There's nothing I didn't like!

Amazing hotel-hostel pub near Schwyz center. Rooms and common spaces where clean, nice view to the mountain. Shared kitchen with everything one could need, lockers inside with combination code if you get a shared room. Friendly staff that informed me about what to do in the area. You can ask for a visitor card that gives you discounts for activities is Schwyz, Gigi, Luzern and 4 cantons lake.
The doors are thin, so you can hear everything happening in the corridors, but off season it's really quiet. Breakfast is not served when not in high season!

Conveniently located. Free parking right outside the hotel.
Opposite a pub and even the street turned out to be quite noisy on a Friday night.

The place is charming and wonderful.
We met Sam when we arrived.
What a great dude!
He poured us a couple of beers and we got to know each other a bit.
Later, when we came for dinner, Sam was a bit stressed as one of the kitchen staff fell ill, couldn’t come in. Short staffed in the kitchen. We told him don’t worry about it, we could go someplace else.
But, then Sam said no. Gave us some cool options on the menu, and the wife and had two delicious meals à la Sam.
The beer was great too!
We had a great stay.
It is only steps-away from the Historical Square and wonderful Parish Church.
This is where Switzerland was born!
Staff was great.
Accommodations were simple but great.
Restaurant/Bar was excellent.

7.0
The hotel is ideally situated and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. We were able to leave our bags there and even check in a tiny bit in advance. We went while bars and restaurants were still forbidden indoors due to covid, so we were not able to enjoy the bar, but it looked amazing and I have no doubt it would have been a huge asset to our stay. They even had board games and a foosball table.
There was an old tobacco smell in the room and the shower jet was hard, but overall it was a satisfying stay!
5.0
Friendly staff. Clean.
Room directly above the bar open to 2pm. Very small room. Hostel rather than a hotel.

Nice backpacker hotel with very friendly staff. Room/kitchen for self-sufficiency is available. But you can also enjoy a nice dinner at the hotels bar/pub. Bar/pub is also nice for having some beers ;) Breakfast was good.
