Perfect location, great stay.
Pros:

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was a good size. The breakfast was great and had a lot of variety. Parking was a bit expensive, but appreciated. Location was walking distance to everything. The hotel restaurant menu was limited, but the food was great and the server was very nice.

Cons:

Price of the parking

Pros:

Erittäin hyvällä paikalla äänet eivät kuuluneet yölläkään, vaikka oli ihan keskustassa. Erinomainen palvelu. Vovheleiden paisto mahdollisuus aamupalalla oli plussaa.

Cons:

Huoneessa erittäin huono ilmanvaihto! Ikkuna oli oltava auki kun huoneessa oli päiväsaikaan. Huoneessa oli kuuma, ei mahdollisuutta säätää lämpötilaa

Santa Claus hotelli tarjoaa kaiken, mitä kaupunkiloman majoituspaikalta vaaditaan.
Pros:

Hyvä aamiainen, kaunis, viihtyisä ravintolasali.
Hotelli on keskeisellä paikalla, kävelymatkan päässä kiinnostavista kulttuuri- ja taidekohteista, joista olen kiinnostunut.
Samoin joki ja hienot kävelyreitit sen rannoilla ovat lähellä.

Pros:

Sijainti, henkilökunta

Cons:

Älyttömän kuuma huone huhtikuussa, vaikka verhot oli kiinni niin oli varmaan 28 huoneessa. Naapurit valitti samaa. Koko yön piti pitää ikkunaa auki, että pystyi nukkumaan edes jotenkin.
