Högljud musik spelades långt in på natten vilket gjorde det omöjligt att sova
Pros:

Högljud musik spelades långt in på natten vilket gjorde det omöjligt att sova. Receptioneisten tyckte det var normalt och oljud är förekommande i städer. Dock var detta på extrema nivåer.

Cons:

Högljud musik spelades långt in på natten vilket gjorde det omöjligt att sova

Ok
Pros:

Läget och det var lugnt och bra

Cons:

Det är lite slitet. Trasiga kakel i badrummet och hårtorken var trasig. Blir trist intryck. Sedan var det omysigt vid frukosten. Är dags att fräscha upp en aning.

Jönköping är en väldigt fin och mysig stad. Lite högre kvalitet på hotellet hade man dock önskat.
Pros:

Läget var superbra och frukosten var bra.

Cons:

Kvaliteten motsvarade inte priset på ca 2000kr för en natt. Rummet låg på baksidan mot en innegård med sophantering. Ingen justerbar ac, ganska varmt på rummet och fönster gick ej att ha öppet pga. fläktar som väsnades på gården. TVn hade bara tre fungerande kanaler och det fanns endast en handduk på rummet när vi checkade in. Ändå överlag ett helt ok hotell men alldeles för dyrt. Betalade för en Ferrari men fick en Saab 99 ;-)
