Vi var 2par och tyckte vi borde ha fått likvärdiga rum. Fin frukost. Ett plus för små Croissanter och ett minus för bara grovt bröd (frallor) den ena morgonen. Ett missöde uppstod vid middagen dag2, men det löstes hur fint och smidigt som helst! Hotellet ligger bra till - lagom promenadavstånd till det fina hamnområdet. Vi är nöjda med vistelsen och det är inte omöjligt, att vi återvänder för finns mycket kvar att utforska :)

Överprisat kallt hotell med låg standard

Hade bokat ett standard dubbelrum. Fick ett hörnrum som till en början verkade lovande, men snabbt insåg jag att temperaturen i rummet var extremt låg, troligen under 20°C. De enda värmekällorna i mitt rum var handdukstorken i badrummet och värmeläckage från rummet brevid, något element fanns inte i sikte. Badrummet var färscht men annars under all kritik, den som designat badrummet måste vara 75% mindre än en normalbyggd vuxen människa. När man satt på toaletten så hade man knäna mot väggen och handdukstorken i ansiktet, att dörren till duschen överhuvudtaget gick att öppna var ett smärre mirakel. Utöver detta så var hotellet extremt lyhört och lösningen för detta verkade vara öronproppar som fanns i nattduksbordet. Ena fönstret hade en gammal persienn som inte gick att stänga ordentligt, vilket kraftigt ökade ljusinsläppet. Till skillnad från alla andra hotell som byggts/renoverats efter 1980 så hade detta hotell konventonella dörrlås med nyckel istället för kort/tag. Vissa dörrar verkade vara nybytta men den till mitt rum var gammal och endast ommålad, vilket tyvärr inte lyckats lösa problemet med att dagsljus trängde in mellan dörr och karm. Frukosten var okej men något liten.

Dragit och kallt

Rummet ok men kallt och dragit, sängen förmodligen inte ens 90 cm bred, duschhanduk var så liten och sliten
