Magnifique !
Pros:

La douche/sauna, très agréable.
Le lit était très confortable, une belle vue sur le port, rien à dire.
Tout est très propre.

Cons:

Pour que ce soit parfait, il faudrait une petite kitchenette mais il y a déjà la présence du nécessaire (petit réfrigérateur, etc.).

Pros:

Das Zimmer war wie angezeigt ausgestattet. Es war zwar deutlich kleiner, als es auf den Bildern wirkt, aber wunderschön und sauber.

Cons:

Was leider gar nicht ging und wirklich unerträglich war, ist die einzige Disco vor Ort direkt vor dem Gebäude des Zimmers. Wir haben in der nach von Samstag zu Sonntag mit Kind im Elia Erato "übernachtet" und bis nachts um 4 hatten wir eine Geräuschkulisse, als säßen wir selbst mitten in der Disco. Trotz komplett geschlossener Fenster und Türen war kein Auge zuzukriegen, es sei denn man gehört selbst zur Partygemeinde. Sorry, aber das war nix.

Pros:

The location is amazing! I know the idea of a Harbour view is very interesting, but there is a club nearby that may cause some noise discomfort. This isn't a issue if you have the rooms facing the street, very calm and there is plenty of morning sunshine. They also clean the rooms everyday.

Cons:

The pillows were very high, but that is a personal preference and not a property problem.

Vil ikke anbefale dette om du ikke liker bråk på natterstid
Pros:

Fint rom, flott utsikt over havnen og sjøutsikt.

Cons:

Mye bråk fra pub som hadde åpent til kl 4. Arbeidere fra restauranter kastet glass i konteinere rett utfor, flere ganger fram til klokken 6.

Excellent!! - except the bathroom smelling
Pros:

Everything.

Cons:

I didn't like at all the horrible smelling of the tubes in the bathroom. We were obliged to keep wet towels in the floor of the bathroom, over the tubes, in order to mitigate a bit the bad horrible smelling.

Pros:

The staff petson Peter was not very welcoming. It's inconvenient to not have anyone on site when checking in. We arrived late due car rental issues with tje company so we arrived very late. Absolutely no parking details when we booked that should have been upfront.
And he wasn't helpful with that either. Though room and location was PERFECT.
