Pros:

Det var rent. Personalet hyggelig, og flott beliggenhet.

Cons:

Kunne ønsket det var frokost. Siden vi spiste frokost på rommet, hadde det vært fint med litt fler en en stol.

God plassering og valuta for pengene.
Pros:

God beliggenhet. Har alt man trenger.

Cons:

Mye bråk om natten gjorde at det ble lite søvn siste natten. Men det er nok heller voksne ledere som reiste med et av korpsene på festivalen sin feil. Mye springing og roping i gangene lenge etter det skulle vært ro.

Nette Leute, großes Zimmer, alles in g
Pros:

Lage super, Personal freundlich, Für Schwedische Verhältnisse angenehme Betten, und ein wirklich großes Zimmer.

Cons:

Leider kein Frühstück, aber das wußten wir beim Buchen ja schon, der Billardtisch hatte seine guten Zeiten wahrscheinlich vor 10 Jahren, aber wenn man in einem Studentenheim, oder Hochschule (weiß nicht mehr genau, was es ist) eine Übernachtung bucht muß man damit rechnen. Summa summarum alles gut!!!
