Prima hotel voor weekendje Goteborg.
Pros:

Uitstekende ligging in het centrum. Zeer vriendelijke dame achter de balie die ons goed hielp. Ontbijt was prima. Parkeren is even een kleine uitdaging, maar ook dat ging uiteindelijk goed. Ik raad dit hotel wel aan voor een korte stop of weekend in Goteborg. Ik zou hier geen week willen zitten.

Cons:

Geen opmerkingen

Helt ok och prisvärd, skulle återkomma om jag ska lvernatta igen.
Pros:

Fint, allt fanns som man behövde, god frukost inte överdådig men fräscht.

Cons:

Dålig belysning på toa, trasig vattenkran på handfat (estetisk; en platta ovanpå handtag saknades, påverkade inte funktionen men såg tråkigt slitet ut)

Great value for money and good location. Would stay again!
Pros:

Central location. Clean warm room. Comfortable bed.

Cons:

The breakfast was very good but there was no bacon or sausages and the stairs were a bit much with a hangover 😂

Highly recommend this hotel with perfect location & great staff
Pros:

The location is perfect, it’s a cozy and chill hotel where you feel comfortable. It’s clean and nice without being fancy. The staff was super nice and helpful.

Cons:

We don’t have any complaints. We couldn’t find a fridge in the room to cool our drinks but it didn’t bother us that much.
