Pros:

Du forventer ved ankomsten at bankdirektør Varnæs eller Oberst Hackel møder dig ved receptionen. Mere Matador findes næppe. Et Grand Hotel som fortjener navnet. Udover behagelige værelser var morgenmaden et højdepunkt. Alt hvad hjertet begærer og lidt mere...

Stil de rigtige spørgsmål og undgå en pinlig situation
Pros:

Morgenmaden og beliggenhed

Cons:

Receptionisten spurgte: ' og hvad bringer jer hertil?' Det blev måske en lidt pinlig situation da jeg svarede at det var en tidlig operationstid på OUH. Og hvor han sagde: 'At det er da også mærkeligt, de ikke har et opholdsrum til jer'. Tænker at det hotellet gerne vil vide, er om det er arbejde eller privat, og så vil jeg da opfordre til at spørgsmålet bliver stillet sådan.
Der var koldt på værelset og det trak fra ventilation og det store vindue. Radiator i værelset kunne ikke skrues op, så det var den lille radiator på badeværelset, der skulle opvarme det hele. Løs forbindelse i natlampe, ledning skulle lægge bestem for at lampen virkede
