Häftig upplevelse för en natt.
Pros:

Gästvänligt, speciellt, genomtänkt med tex möjlighet att låna plats i kylskåp. Karakteristiskt boende.

Cons:

Rummet är väldigt små av förklarlig anledning.

Pros:

Nära centralt

Cons:

Sängarna knarrar & är hårda, flyttade på sig när man ens vände sig i sängen, tvn satt högt upp i taket så man fick ont o nacken när man såg tv. Där va hår i duschen & smuts på golvet. Frukosten va ok men inte wow upplevelse. Väldigt lyhört och man hör när folk smäller i sina dörrar.

Trevlig reception med uppehållsrum. Fräsch och snygg inredning, man har verkligen lyckat med inredning/design. Fruko
Pros:

Frukosten, receptionen med bar samt tillgång till kök.

Cons:

Sängen, dubbelsäng - 140cm bredd. Aldrig mer…
Toalettens handfat - 29cm från handfat till glashylla under spegeln. Omöjligt att nå över handfatet vid tandborstning.
Visst ett begränsat utrymme - men en glashylla ovan ett minihandfat går bort. Hyllan kunde monterats på en annan vägg.

Sehr gut aber nichts für Jeden.
Pros:

Das Hotel war in Västervik sehr zentral (10-15 min zum Stadtkern). Das Zimmer war zwar sehr klein aber komfortabel. Alles war sehr sauber. Das Frühstücksbuffet war groß und trotz dem Umstand, dass sich im Februar wohl nich viele Touristen nach Västervik verirren voll bestückt. Das Personal war ausgesprochen freundlich und hilfsbereit.

Cons:

Man darf nicht vergessen, dass dieses Gebäude vor nicht allzu langer Zeit als Gefängnis benutzt wurde. Dementsprechend sind die Zimmertüren teilweise tatsächlich noch graue Metalltüren. Der Umstand, dass es sich um ein ehemaliges Gefängnis handelt, wird dabei auch nicht versteckt sondern eher zu Werbezwecken verwendet. Für mich persönlich aber eher spannend als unangenehm und in den Zimmern selbst merkt man davon auch nichts.
