It looked differently then on the site. Disappointing actually. This hotel (or better to qualify as a motel) needs serious renovation. Cold, old and worn-out. Little bit creepy in the night, hearing different sounds and poor electricity (weak lights). Not pleasant stay!

Snarare motell än hotell

Snarare motell än hotell med enkla rum. Inget speciellt. Relativt tyst. Frukost var så där och väldigt lite att välja på. Ingen gröt, inget för barnen. Det sämsta kaffe jag druckit. Från automaten smakar bättre. Pulverkaffe smakar bättre än kaffet vid frukost, så pass dålig/vattnig den är.

Nöjf, men...

Det som var lite tråkigt var att troligen så samlades epa-raggarna på BK eller McD, med sin stora ljudanläggningar på kvällen, det var kanske eller förhoppningsvis ett engångstillfälle.

Bra

Bra boende för en eller flera nätter. Hjälpsam personal lånade ut sy-kit när klänning gick sönder. Fräscht rum med fläkt. Skön säng. Enda minuset är att det luktade lite konstigt i badrummet.

Bra för vad det är!

Vi tog detta eftersom det var det billigaste alternativet i Kalmar – dyrt överlag i stan och därmed lite dyrt för att vara ett Rasta. Lite slitet men ändå bra för att vara ett övernattningshotell nära stora vägen. Rent, snabb incheckning och trevlig personal 🙂

Mindre bra.

Tyvärr funkade inte allt med allergimaten. Bröd köpte vi själva, endast bacon funkade på det varma (mjölkallergi). Killen i receptionen gjorde vad han kunde, köket ställde inte upp. Fikabröd var obefintligt. Tråkigt för allergiker o veganer. Lyhört på rummet. Blir nog ett annat nästa gång.

Rymligt familjerum med sköna sängar

Fint och rymligt familjerum med sköna sängar. Frukosten var ganska enkel men var ändå okej. Varmt på rummet (var där i juli), fanns en fläkt och kunde öppna ett fönster. Nära affärer och snabbmatskedjor. Perfekt med gratis parkering. Perfekt läge nära Ölandsbron. Vi är nöjda med vistelsen!
