Sentralt hotell
Pros:

Sentralt, gode senger og god frokost.

Cons:

Suiten vi bestilte lå vendt mot trafikkert vei, og det var svært lytt fra trafikken. Vi byttet til et mindre rom, men sleit med å sove da en nabo spilte heavy metall til langt på natt. Dessverre ingen hyggelig hotellopplevelse eller valuta for pengene for vår del denne gangen. Vi har bedt om å få refundert deler av beløpet, men det har vi ikke sett noe til ennå.

Great stay for the price
Pros:

Very spacious room. Good bed. Restaurant had an ok selection of eating's and the food was great.

Cons:

Room could have needed an AC or fan as we visited the hotel in the middle of a heatwave.
In the nit-picking section, water from the shower ran out on the bathroom floor, as the floor didn't had enough fall to the drain, though nothing more than what a towel could dry up.

Lokalt, avslappende men dyrt
Pros:

Sengene og putene var behagelige.
Fikk badekar som jeg hadde ønske om.
Frokost var grei.

Cons:

Jeg synest det var helt greit, men dyrt for en natt.
Ikke så fornøyd med at man ikke kunne streame til TV-en (se Netflix eller lignende fra telefonen)

Hadde det vært mulighet for å brukt TV-en med mobilen så hadde opplevelsen vært bedre.
