Pros:

Trevligt med pub, restaurang i samma. Bra urval. Maten ok. Bra frukost

Cons:

För litet rum för 4 personer. Dusch fungerade varm/kallvatten sådär, värmebölja när vi var där och olidligt varmt på det lilla rummet.

Confortable room but thin windows
Pros:

The staff was welcoming and friendly, free parking available, the bed was confortable, refreshements available in the room.

Cons:

I was travelling for work and needed a good night sleep, but could hear the cars and motorbikes until late night and from early morning. The windows are vintage and pretty, but unfortunately too thin to allow for noise reduction from the street.

Pros:

I loved everything. The rooms are decorated very nice. The room was clean and welcoming. A nice touch was a breakfast tray on the bed with a nice bottle of water with glasses and some little luxuries. The bed was really comfortable too. Breakfast was served as self service in part with cooked food available.

Pros:

cute kind of nautical decor, had doggy bag with blanket and bowl for pets/nice touch, nice warm bathrobes, comfy King bed, great breakfast,

Cons:

Room heater was broken-were able to crank up bathroom heater to warm room, thought price was very high, we ate dinner in their restaurant-poor service-had to ask for everything, when ordering and had questions the young waitress had no idea-answers like"have no idea, never seen that special here on fish", when we ordered mixed drinks had either run out or had never heard of it (Campari, Aperol) so ended up ordering hot tea, food was average at best-fresh fish special was dry and tough, vegetables over cooked and no flavor
