Recommended for cyclists

My wife and I enjoyed our stay. We travel with our bicycles and very much appreciated that we could store our bicycles in the hotel in the basement. The hotel is nicely located directly at the river and the city center is close by. There is free coffee at all times and the breakfast was appropriate. We can recommend the hotel for people traveling by bicycle.

Trevligt och mysigt hotell. Ingen lyx men ovanligt genomtänkt i de små detaljerna. Skulle absolut rekommendera det.
