Room was fine and reasonably large. Bed was comfortable. Didnt hear any noise from surrounding rooms. The room was fairly hot, but there was no air conditioning and the windows were bolted shut, which felt a bit prison-like. Luckily the helpful staff member gave me the key to open the window, which was a relief. The shower cubicle was a bit small. I kept banging into things (including the very hot hot water pipe at one point). They could have fit a bigger cubicle in there, so not sure why they went for a small one with rounded doors. Staff spoke good English and were helpful. They booked taxis for me no problem and as above helped with my window problem. Location was fine. Walking distance to the castle (though that was always crawling with youths, so I didnt get chance to have a proper look) and the little museum.

Great location, heated attached garage!!!

Good location in the heart of Kajaani. Room was nicer than expected - bathroom was gorgeous, room was small but fine. Wifi was too weak to stream Netflix, fine, but otherwise a winner. Best part - it was -35C but had zero concerns as my car was in an attached heated garage for 8 euros that kept it at around 2C. After a freezing cold trip, thank you!

Ihan hyvä hotelli keskeisellä paikalla. Rauhallinen hotelli, mukava vastaanotto (kiitos kyseiselle henkilölle). Hyvä aamiainen ja myös siellä tervehdittiin mukavasti. Yksi asia kuitenkin vaikuttaa siihen etten varmaankaan pysty jatkossa käyttämään hotellia: huoneessa oli heikko ilmanvaihto, eikä siihen voinut itse vaikuttaa. Aukaistava ikkuna ratkaisisi asian.

Hotelli oli siisti ja hiljainen. Hotelli oli keskeisellä paikalla ja parkkihalli aivan vieressä. Kylpyhuoneen kokonaisvalaistus oli hämärä. Peilin molemmin puolin hyvin himmeät lampetit, jotka oli asennettu niin matalalle, ettei niistä ollut apua peiliin katsoessa. Suurentava peili oli asetettu toisen lampetin eteen eli peittäen edelleen valaistusta. TV:n toiminnassa oli pulmia. Aamiainen oli vaatimaton. Hinta ei vastannut tarjottua tasoa. Isommalla paikkakunnalla yövyin heti perään, myös Sokos hotellissa, mutta edullisemmin.

Piristävä parin yön kulttuuriviikonloppu.

Mukava hiljainen huone. Aamiainen oli monipuolinen ja hotellin sijainti loistava. Todella kiva, että huoneesta löytyi vedenkeitin ja teetä, kahvia ja kaakaota. Television käyttö oli konstikasta ja hieman vaikeaa, mutta katselutarve täyttyi kyllä.
