Med tanke på närheten till staden blev vår totala vistelse bra.
Pros:

Närheten till staden.

Cons:

Rummen var luftlösa. Det kändes som att gå in i en plastburk. Tapeterna var som plast.

Trevligt boende överlag om dom byter ut sängarna, köp nya billiga ikea sängar! 10 gånger bättre än dessa…
Pros:

Trevlig personal, välstädat, bra service & skönt med egen toalett

Cons:

Sängen var katastrof!! Sjukt obekväm, är som att ligga & sova i en hängmatta! Riktigt gammal & obekväm, boka inte detta om du vill ha en god natts sömn!

Pros:

Luftigt och ljust rum, rätt bra utsikt. Jättetrevlig personal, trevlig frukost; hade uppskattat vanliga ljusa frallor också, men annars var den bra, ljust, luftigt och fräscht rum att äta frukosten på!

Cons:

De som var mindre bra va var badrummet pch mer specifikt duschen. Tog en normallång dusch, ca 10 min. Å när jag öppnade dörren för att gå ur duschen var de vatten över verkligen hela golvet., de kändes sådär. +svarta prickar på gummilisterna i duschen, de uppskattas inte tyvärr.

Ingen personal på plats när man skulle checka ut dock.
