Pros:

BRa läge - helt OK (enkla) rum!

Cons:

Jag hade ej fått besked om att hotellet var obemannat - och inte heller fått den kod som krävdes för att komma in (och inte heller besked om vilket rum jag skulle ha och att nyckeln satt i dörren)

Pros:

Es ist alles in die Jahre gekommen, hatte dadurch aber einen besonderen Charme. Die Betten waren bequem, das Frühstück war gut. Im Zimmer gab es ein Waschbecken, so brauchte man nicht für alles ins Gemeinschaftsbad.
In der Nähe konnten wir gut parken. Gegenüber in einer alten Kirche befindet sich ein Musikhaus mit einer tollen Atmosphäre, wir erlebten eine schwedische Countryband.
Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis war für uns optimal.

Jag kommer att boka flera gånger.
Pros:

Frukosten var bra, det fanns vad man förväntar sig med varianter där det var aktuellt. Städningen var superb. Personalen är underbara och hjälpte gärna till. Kan verkligen rekommendera hotellet till resande som vill ha en historisk tillbaka blick och prisvärt boende centralt.

Nöjd och återkommande! ❤️
Pros:

Närheten till allt. Fantastiskt fint rum. Otroligt bekväm säng. Kanonfrukost och helt enkelt lättillgängligt.

Cons:

Lite väl lyhört både utifrån gatan men även från övriga gäster.

Hemskt!
Pros:

Inget.

Cons:

Sunkigt, mörkt och tvn funkade inte. Fanns ingen personal att fråga. Kändes gammalt och instänkt.

I would like to return again
Pros:

Close to railway station, clear instructions, code is sent by sms, to enter you need enter code in the left side panel (not right side). Clean, and quite. Small but enough breakfast. everything what i needed while visiting. Tea/coffee is available during the day with small biscuits.

Cons:

I was trying to be quite, but my door was producing sounds, i was worrying to wake up people when going early to toilet.
