Frukostvurm som här får sitt lystmäte.
Pros:

Den stora behållningen på Stora Hotellet i Jönköping är personalen! Särskilt frukostvärdinnorna är helt fantastiska! Även receptionisterna är mycket kompetenta och trevliga, vilket uppskattas mycket.
Att få inmundiga dagens första mål här är ren njutning! Allt finns: perfekt kokta ägg, många olika bröd, rikligt med påläggsalternativ liksom yoghurt- och filsorter tillsammans med flingor, nötter och annat crunch. Fräscha grönsaker. Goda varma "saker". Varierande drycker att välja på, både varmt och kallt. Tänk att det sedan fanns både pannkakor och våfflor! Och färska jordgubbar och blåbär. Hur gott som helst! När min frukost avslutades med dessa sistnämnda läckerheter och grädde - då var jag i sjunde himlen!!
Tack så otroligt mycket.

Cons:

Kanske inte världens roligaste rum jag fick precis jämte hissen, med utsikt mot baksidan, dock fanns alla faciliteter. OCH receptionisten erbjöd mig faktiskt att uppdatera rummet! Något jag avböjde då det bara var en natt.

Kommer inte rekomendera detta hotell
Pros:

Läget var bra

Cons:

Rumsstandarden var dålig. Litet trångt badrum, dålig ljudisolering där vi blev störda av gästerna ovanför (det hördes till och med när de gick omkring). Vi hade i god tid bett om ett rum högt upp och fick på första våningen istället för översta.
