I think the overall service was nice, but the place was not. Especially the hotel restaurant had wonderful service. Hotel itself was old, well in need of some redoing. There was dust between the windows, like it was cleaned 2 years ago. Also the view to Stora Enso power plant isn't that great tbh :D

Erityisesti arvostan yhden hengen huonetta, jossa on yksi vuode. Huone oli viihtyisä ehkä juuri sen takia. Kahden vuoteen huone yhdelle on jotenkin loukkaavaa. Huone oli siisti, henkilökunta huumorintajuista.

Siisti hotelli ja helppo majoittua koirienkin kanssa. Saunallinen kaksio oli mukava! Aamupala oli ihan jees, tuore leipä kruunasi perunteisen hotelliaamiaisen.

Huone oli erittäin siisti ja sänky mukava. Hotelli on jo jonkin ikäinen, joka näkyy. Aamiainen oli erinomainen ja kuuden minuutin munat olivat parhaat missään syömäni; valkuainen hyytynyt ja keltuainen sopivan löysä. Vastaanoton palvelu oli todella hyvä. Viihdyimme.
