Rauhallinen, siisti hotelli. Henkilökunta ammattitaitoista ja ystävällistä. Vessan lattia häiritsi hieman, oli kovin kylmä. Aamupalatarjoilu yltäkylläinen. Pöytien likaisista astioista tyhjentäminen kovin hidasta, mikä häiritsi aamupalaa.

Paikka oli siisti, yleisilme tuore, asiakaspalvelija sisäänkirjautuessa ystävällinen, fiksu ja persoonallinen. Aamupalan porrastus onnistui kohtuullisen hyvin, ja kaikinpuolin homma toimi niinkuin olettaa sopii
