Jeg synes der var beskidt og specielt var badeværelses ulækkert - klamt afløb hvor det lugtede fra.

Cons:

Badet var på gangen for det værelse jeg bookede, det var som sådan ok. Dog var afløbet stoppet til så bruseren løb over eller kunne kun køre på meget lav kraft. Ikke helt ideelt.

Ridiculously small room at that prize
Pros:

We have visited this hotel with friends twice before. Loved it. This time we got a ridiculously small room, and on top it faced the street with lots of traffic noise from 5 am.
The size meant that when you got out of bed and went towards the bathroom, at the end of the bed you had to bend down to get under the wall mounted TV.
We asked for a better room – not possible. At departure we asked for a reduction of the prize – not possible. When we complained the answer was: “The room you get all depends on when you booked the room”.
Which is a ridiculous answer, as we booked the room 3 months in advance, and had specified which room we wanted.
Looking at other customers experiences, I suddenly agre with other customers:
The breakfast is close to meager, compared to other hotels in that price range.
So good bye to SOFS from excellent customers, who have always booked directly, saving the hotel the 20% fee to the international booking sites.

A pleasant stay in a very nice city.
Pros:

Great staff, great location.
Wonderful shower, comfortable bed.
Good breakfast. Nice garden/ patio.
We enjoyed Aros Modern Art Museum, Moesgaard Archaeology Museum with the Peat Bog Man and the Den Gamle By museum of life in Denmark but they were all a bit expensive.
We enjoyed a football match at Ceres Park to see AGF v South Jutland .

Cons:

No lift, it was tiring to carry luggage to the 3rd floor.
Sink in bathroom was very small
My brother hit his head on the wall coming down from the roof, inside the room.
No free bottle of water in the room.

Pros:

Placeringen og stemningen

Cons:

Morgenmaden var god men der var konsekvent for lidt sat frem. Kagerne var skåret på forhånd i halve og smør portionerne var alt for små
