Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Rauhallinen ja siisti huone, nykyaikainen. Vain nojatuolia jäin kaipaamaan, se olisi sopinut huoneeseen hyvin. Selkärangaton ei jaksa sängynreunalla istua. Tosin suurin osa huoneessa vietetystä ajasta tuli nukuttua.

Hyväkuntoinen majoitus

Siisti, vast’ikään muutettu tai remontoitu hotellikäyttöön. Huoneessa ei omaa WCtä/suihkua. Niihin pääsee käytävätilan kautta. TV ja vedenkeitin löytyy huoneesta. Juuri sopiva yhden yön nukkumiseen.
