Ok… here is the biggest insider hint for you architectural travellers.
As I mentioned previously, the best deal is to stay in the Hotel as you get to go to the bath twice (each entry already 28CHF). We opted for the cheapest room rate of 99CHF per person for a double room, it turned out that the room we got is the ONLY room with a direct view of the bath building itself!!!
Make sure you remember ROOM 421
