Pros:

Aamiainen perussettiä, iltapala-ainekset oli valmiina jääkaapissa

Cons:

Huoneet tuoksui vanhalle, ehkä jopa homeelle.
Suihku olematon ,hanan vieressä oleva johto,josta ehkä olisi saanut juuri hiukset kasteltua.
Tälläiset yöpymispaikat saisi poistaa valikoimista

Unusual experience, interesting, good sleep.
Pros:

Interesting experience, like time-machine back to 90’ies.

Cons:

Too many things were simply broken (eg bathroom hooks, window clothings). If fixed, it could be really stilish interesting place “back to 90’ies”.

Pros:

50-talsmiljön på hotellet var härlig med stora gemensamhetsytor för både umgänge och lek.
Det lätt depraverade möblemanget har fortfarande en air av forna tiders inomhus- rökning, vilket ytterligare förstärker 50-talskänslan. Inredningen med tegelväggar, det lätt slitna läderlindade trappräcket var fantastiskt att se! Värt att bevaras!

Cons:

Laddboxen fungerade inte, trots att jag hade kontaktat receptionen och fått besked om att laddare fanns och var gratis!
Lite tråkigt att ingen personal fanns på plats, förutom i restaurangen, och hon kunde endast knapphändig engelska dessutom!
Badrummet i vårt rum 253 har behov av uppfräschning!
