Clean hotel, great location, big rooms, and nice staff. But I wouldn’t call it a 4 star hotel. It’s a great 2-3 star hotel. There was no refrigerator or safety box in the rooms.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Frukosten är fantastisk men rummet hade ingen luftkonditionering vilket gjorde det sjukt varmt i rummet. Det är även väldigt lyhört så man hör andra gäster smälla i dörrar klockan 7 på morgonen, folk står och skriker utanför fönstret vilket hörs in. Detta gör det förståeligt svårt att sova så länge som man behöver. Gardinerna hade synliga fläckar kvar vilket är en petitess men rummet kostar ändå en del... Inget balsam, ingen body lotion men det fanns schampo och handtvål åtminstone. Annars fräsch toalett. Ingen taklampa i rummet annat än i halltaket samt väggbelysning och en golvlampa. Skulle nog inte rekommendera det här om inte för frukosten.

Centralt beläget på Trossö. Fantastisk frukost med stort utbud. Saknade allergenförteckning. Dock väldigt servicevänlig kallskänka. Gillar inte de stora /höga kuddarna i sängen. Fanns inte andra mindre på rummet och inte heller vid fråga i receptionen. Detta bör åtgärdas.
