Pros:

Excellent location, happy hour was a bonus, breakfast was good. Staff were friendly.

Cons:

The room was big but I wouldn't call it a suite. Some drawers would be good so you could unpack fully.

Rude staff and disappointing experience
Pros:

The proximity to the tram stop was great and the complimentary snacks and drinks during happy hour were a nice touch.

Cons:

I had a rather disappointing experience during my stay. On the first day, when I entered my room, I found the pillows lying on the floor without pillowcases. When I reported this to the receptionist, she initially told me she was on her break and would look into it later. However, when she returned, instead of showing any concern or offering an apology, she reacted as though this were a perfectly normal situation.
I explained that the pillows were dirty and that I could not use them in that condition. However, she seemed unwilling to understand my concern and was about to turn around and walk away. I told her that my English was limited and asked her to wait while I tried to explain the situation. She responded sarcastically, saying, "Yes, I can tell," and only stopped to listen when I insisted.
The pillows were eventually replaced, but her attitude was extremely rude and left a very bad first impression. It was certainly not the kind of welcome one would expect at the beginning of a holiday. Considering that this hotel is relatively expensive compared to others in the area, it also fell short of my expectations.
It was very disappointing to start a holiday that should have been enjoyable on such a negative note. As for the rest of my stay, I would describe the overall experience as average.

Een teleurstellend verblijf vanwege de rioollucht in de kamer en het toilet en het tegenvallende, niet verse ontbijt
Pros:

Helaas was ik niet tevreden over mijn verblijf in dit hotel

Cons:

De kamer en het toilet stonken erg naar riolering, wat zeer onaangenaam was. Ook was ik niet tevreden over het ontbijt. Het eten was niet vers en leek voornamelijk in de oven te zijn opgewarmd. De kwaliteit van het ontbijt viel erg tegen. Voor mij was dit verblijf teleurstellend en het hotel voldeed niet aan mijn verwachtingen

Pros:

Super god beliggenhed, venligt og hjælpsomt personale, super hyggeligt med “happy hour”.

Cons:

Vores værelse var ikke ordentligt rengjort, vi fandt hår fra andre gæster på gulvet og ved sengen. Der var skimmelsvamp på loftet i badeværelset og lugtede derfor af skimmelsvamp i hele værelset.
