Pros:

O quarto era bem amplo, com mesa e cadeiras, além de cozinha… o banheiro tb era grande e com chão aquecido. Os hóspedes podem usar a academia do centro esportivo (grande e com muitos aparelhos e equipamentos) sem custo adicional até às 16 h. Localização muito boa! Funcionários educados!

Cons:

Pontos diferentes: conexão com rede Wi-Fi deve ser feita mediante login e senha, porém há um limite de hora a cada conexão, fazendo com que eu precisasse refazer isso várias vezes durante minha estadia… por estar dentro de um centro desportivo, em alguns lugares o chão acabava não ficando muito limpo… o café da manhã é do estilo bandejão…

Pros:

Siisti paikka, hyvät aktiviteetit, monipuolista ruokaa. Tykättiin kovasti ! Toimi ainakin lyhyellä visiitillä.

Cons:

Hieman sokkeloinen tiloiltaan (uusi ravintola mutkien takana), mutta sinnekin selkeä opastus.

I would rather sleep on the street in -20 degrees than return to this hotel! Stay away!
Pros:

Basically? Nothing. The only good thing was the price, which sounded tempting when booking, but quickly turned out to be a complete mistake.

Cons:

I don't even know where to start. This hotel claims to be a 4-star hotel, but in reality, the experience is more like a military boarding school or a cheap hostel. This hotel is
absolutely beneath contempt.

Parking Trap:We parked in the hotel's own parking lot and got a 60 Euro parking ticket! The staff didn't bother telling us we needed a special parking slip for hotel guests. Only after we went and complained did they cancel it. Be aware, they are trying to trick you!

Hotel Facilities - Lack of Transparency: The description says there is a pool and a gym. What they don't tell you is that the free pool hours you are entitled to are only between 06:30 and 08:00 AM – completely irrelevant hours. Furthermore, when my partner wanted to go to the gym in the evening, they demanded an absurd extra fee of 20 Euros!

Dining Room:You can't call this a hotel dining room. The food is simply awful. With all due respect, the army serves better and more normal food than what they have there.

Basic Conditions:Everything feels cheap and stingy. The toilet paper in the bathroom and the overall conditions really make you feel like you've arrived at a military boarding school, not a 4-star hotel

I highly recommend staying away and not going anywhere near this hotel.

Excellent. Comfortable and Good value for our money
Pros:

Walkable distance from the city center. Love the sauna pool and gym facilities and their breakfast offering is decent and great value for money. Best feature of our room was that machine that dries up our clothes that we definitely took advantage of.

Cons:

It didnt bother us much but u have to book the cleaning for the next day if you want room attended.

Meillä oli ihana mini loma perheen kesken
Pros:

Saimme ison huoneen edullisesti.
Huoneessa oli laadukkaat saippuat ja hoitoaine.
Huoneen taso ylitti odotukset.
Lapsille oli paljon tekemistä tarjolla.
Kaikki tarvittava oli helposti saatavilla.
Meillä oli ihana mini loma perheen kesken.
