Первый номер выходил на трамвайные пути, попросили поменять. Второй номер был лучше, но все минусы описаны выше.
Cons:

В номере старые полотенца, пыль, кондиционер грязный и с плесенью (ощущение, что его не чистили с момента установки) и плохо охлаждает маленький номер.
Простыни не чистые, с дырами, подушки будто из кусков поролона.

Pros:

Henkilökunta oli ystävällistä ja auttavaista ja erityinen kiitos ihanille siistijöille! Erinomainen sijainti. Kokonaisuus negatiivisista puolista huolimatta ihan ok.

Cons:

Huone oli meluisa (äänet kadulta ja hotellin käytäviltä kuuluivat todella selvästi), tupakanhajua huoneeseen tuli ajoittain voimakkaasti. Kuvat antoivat olettaa kyseessä olevan hieman hienompi hotelli kuin sitten olikaan.
