Very nice location right by the motorway and very dog-friendly. In fact, they provide bowls and even small amounts of dog food.

Affordable basic hotel with good parking options, but don't plan on getting an early night.
Pros:

I liked the price, as a motorcyclist in rainy Sweden I liked that they had undercover parking available as we had a lot of rain when I was there and its quiet rural location was a better option than parking a motorcycle in a public area in the city centre.

Cons:

I was disappointed when I arrived 2 hours early to find that they could not accommodate an early check in (I had advised the time in advance and they said they would if possible accommodate it), on arrival I was told that I could not check in till 16:00 (there is no option of an early check in surcharge). So I waited in my motorcycle leathers in reception and bags at reception. Then at 15:45 another couple came in and they could check in, so I did and to be honest I do not believe anything was done to my room that it could not have been released earlier.

Be warned that because this is a popular hotel for families and youth sport clubs, so be warned that if you are planning an early start you will be kept awake until after 22:00 hrs with children running up and down and playing in the corridors.

Hotellet är väldigt fint, men ni sa till mig att frukost ingick. När jag kom dit visade det sig att frukosten inte alls
Pros:

Hotellet är väldigt fint, men ni sa till mig att frukost ingick. När jag kom dit visade det sig att frukosten inte alls ingick, och jag var tvungen att betala extra för den.

Ni uppgav även att det fanns gym och pool, men de är inte tillgängliga eftersom de är ur funktion.

Det jag inte förstår är varför ni uppger att saker ingår eller finns tillgängliga när det inte stämmer. Jag känner mig vilseledd av den information jag fick från er.

Okej, ni lyckades lura mig den här gången, men i fortsättningen kommer jag inte att lita på er på samma sätt.

En oslipad diamant vid världens ände
Pros:

Dolt belägen anstaltbyggnad med ett fantastiskt inre. Underbar utsikt om man gillar... skog? Supertrevlig personal och många parkeringplatser.

Cons:

Bra läge om man ska passera förbi, inte om man ska uppleva staden.

Good enough
Cons:

Not enough parking space. To much noise from children. I understand that this is not the best choice when travel for work.
