Absolutely wonderful buffet breakfast every morning, loads of delicious options, fresh fruit, breads, delicious blackberry jam, excellent coffee. Next door is a supermarket with an excellent salD bar and hot food. Only issue we had was with the mattress on the bed, it was like a bedroll and only about 2 inches thick. Also no fridge in the room.

They were refurbishing so i imagine it was worse than usual but it looked like a bit of a dive when i got there. And the breakfast area felt like a school canteen.

There is parking available, but it isn't owned by the hotel. You will need one of the parking apps such as Easypark. To benefit you need to get the special number from reception before using the app. The number must be entered in the search as you won't find it by looking at the app's map.

Pick another place.

Extremely small room for four. Wi-Fi didn’t reach to the room. AC seemed to be out in the lobby and in the rooms. They were supposed to check on both the Wi-Fi and AC and they never did. The room was so stuffy and gross after two days. The bathroom was so small you had to enter via stepping in the shower or over the toilet. Cannot recommend this place.

Hotell för en natt och aldrig mer

Personalen i receptionen tittade inte ens upp när vi ville checka in så fick bli self check in. Tror hon hade passat bättre på annat jobb än med service, samma sak vid utcheckning. Frukostlokalen var otroligt omysig, snölla gör något åt inredningen. Frukostpersonalen var supertrevliga!

Bra och trevligt

Bra läge och trevlig personal. Väldigt skön säng och väldigt skönt i rummet hela natten. Enda negativa var att vi fick ett rum som vi inte kom åt med bara hiss utan var tvungna att bära vagnen uppför en trappa. Annars är vi väldigt nöjda.
