Pros:

Sänky oli ihan ok. Henkilökunta ystävällistä. Sijainti ihan jees.

Cons:

Epäsiisti: lakanoissa likaa. Suihkutila homeinen. Gluteeniton aamupala ois voinu olla parempi. Sijainti muuten hyvä, mut raitiovaunun meteli kuului ylimpäänkin kerrokseen, muutenkin seinät vähä ohuet. Vaikka en tänne tullut TVtä katsomaan, niin puolet kanavista ei ees näkynyt.

Pros:

Lokalizacja, obsługa, czystość pokoju

Cons:

Brak wody i herbaty w pokoju. Śniadanie: duży wybór, ale większość mdła i nieprzyprawiona i nie chodzi tylko o sól. Fasolka z puszki z Lidla ma więcej smaku niż Wasza propozycja niestety. Falafel okropny. Soki rozwodnione o nienaturalnym smaku.

Great cosy spot on the centre with excellent transport links
Pros:

Location. And parts of the hotel that (I’m presuming) originally date from the 80s are nice - the breakfast room, the bathroom in my room etc. The view from the rooms at the front is nice as the trams cons and go. It’s cosy and the staff are nice, particularly at breakfast.

Cons:

The WiFi isn’t great and parts of the building aren’t very welcoming - the lobby and play area for example - wouldn’t take much to improve them.

Pros:

Sijainti hyvä kuten myös aamupala. Henkilökunta ystävällistä.
Vuoteet olivat hyvät

Cons:

Ehkä wc/kylpyhuone kaipaisi pientä päivitystä. Tosin meille tämä kyllä riitti
