Great stop at this excellent hotel. Friendly staff who were most helpful. Room was clean, comfortable and covered the basic needs for a stop. Excellent bed. Breakfast was also first rate with plenty of choice. A good hotel which we would use again.

Ohne Schnickschnack - mit sehr freundlichen Leuten

Das Haus ist schon lĂ€nger in Betrieb. Parkplatz ohne Kosten direkt vor dem Haus. Die Leute sind super freundlich. Der Lift war teilweise defekt. Das Zimmer super klein, die einzelbetten wirklich schmal, das Badezimmer richtig klein. Doch irgendwie sehr sauber und fein. Ruhig und ordentlich. FĂŒr eine Nacht als zwischenstopp wĂŒrden wir wieder gehen.

Greit hotell for en natt i Kalmar.

Enkelt, men greit hotell i Kalmar. Ligger en liten spasertur utenfor sentrum. Rolig omrÄde. FÄ gratis p-plasser, men rimelig parkering i nÊrheten (10,- nok) for Ä parkere fra 16:00-10:00. Hotellet har en liten bar som er Äpen til kl. 21:00 (positivt). Frokosten er enkel, men greit utvalg av rundstykker, pÄlegg og youghurt. Anbefaler for folk pÄ gjennomreise eller for et kortere opphold.
