War für 2 Nächte dort. Hotel hat vermutlich keine eigenen Parkplätze. Gemeint ist das benachbarte Parkhaus, dieses ist dann kostenpflichtig. Wenn man etwas Gepäck hat läuft man ca. 2-3min. Das Zimmer ist relativ hellhörig und die Fußgängerampel draußen gibt ein regelmäßig tickendes Geräusch von sich, deswegen Nachts Fenster zu. Frühstück gibt es wochentags bis 9:00 Expedia weicht da ab.

Helt ok med trevlig personal. MEN olidligt varmt på rummet!!! Och finns ngn kod när det ska vara tyst på hotellet? När vi väl lyckats slumra till väcktes vi av ”glada” grannar som höll oss vakna en bit in på natten. Kommer inte boka här igen tyvärr.

Vanhentunut hotelli

Vanhentunut huone. Käytävässä haisi samalle kuin sisäilmaongelmaisissa rakennuksissa yleensä. Huoneen lämpötila todella kuuma. Kylpyhuone erittäin vanhentunut. Ainut hyvä asia monipuolinen aamiainen ja ystävällinen henkilökunta.
