In the middle of Vasa and close to everything

We had a great stay at this hotel. Easy to check in and special price on Cava at the roof bar. The room and bed was excellent. The breakfast was also good with a lot to choose from.

Aamiainen oli hyvä, varsinkin lapsille. Sai tilata munakasta ja tehdä vohveleita. Pekoni oli, kuten melkein joka hotellissa, todella lötköä ja huonosti paistettua. Muuten ihan hyvä valikoima, vatsa tuli täyteen.
