너무 열악한 시설..

직원분들은 매우 친절하셨으나, 숙박시설 / 주변환경등이 너무 열악합니다. 호텔이라고는 할 수 없을듯하며, 여러가지면을 고려했을때 가격이 너무 비쌉니다.

Hyvä perushotelli

Siisti perushotelli ja hintalaatusuhteeltaan hyvä. Sänky ja tyyny olivat positiivinen yllätys - säästyin selkä- ja niskakivuilta! Aamiaisella oli sopivasti vaihtoehtoja ja ravintolatila oli viihtyisä.

Yövyimme toisen kerran hotellissa, tyytyväisiä olemme. Aamupalalla olisin toivonut kesällä tuoreita marjoja, kuten mansikoita ja mustikoita. Hedelmistä tarjolla oli vain kesällä appelsiineja, olisi voinut olla persikoita, banaaneja

Hotellissa ei valittamista, MUTTA, meteli yöllä oli kamalaa :( Lämpötilan/helteen takia jouduttiin nukkumaan ikkuna auki, "mopopojat" ynnämuut "kuminpolttajat" pitivät huolta että nukkumisesta ei tullut mitään.Meteli loppui noin kello 04-05 :( :( .

A well hidden place to stay.

The hotel is on a plaza close to restaurants and shopping. On Fridays and Saturdays they have music until 4 a.m. next day. This may wake you up.

Mainettaan parempi

Nyt ei.haissut tupakka niinkuin vuosi sitten. Respassa ei näkynyt henkilökuntaa muuten kuin soittamalla kelloa. Eipä juuri ollut tarvettakaan, mutta ehkä turvallisuuden kannalta olisi tarpeellista.

Superior rum rekommenderas

Detta var 4:e gången jag bodde på Samantta. Jag rekommenderar superior rum, dessa är ljusa och väldigt fräscha, dessutom nyrenoverade i jämförelse med standard rum. Standard rummen känns äldre och mörkare samt med viss tendens av rökdoft eller liknande från svunnen tid då det var ok att röka inomhus. Givetvis är det rökförbud nuförtiden.

Puolivälin yöpyminen.

Olimme yhden yön matkalla pohjoiseen. Mielestämme hyvä vaihtoehto väliyöpymiseen. Hyvä huone ja runsas aamupala. Ei moittimista. Silmiin pisti ruokailutilan kattorakenteet (vesivuotoja ym.)

Pientä kevyttä iltapalaa olisi voinut olla tarjolla hotelin ravintolassa.
