Super Hostel
Pros:

Super freundlich und zuvorkommend.
Ich wurde sogar zweimal zurückgerufen.
Ansonsten eher Jugendherbergscharakter.
Aber das war mir durchaus bewusst.
Und eine wundervolle Lage!

Varmt rekommenderas!
Pros:

Ett fantastiskt and mycket intressant ställe! Vackra och stillsamma omgivningar. Väldigt fina och bekväma rum med eget badrum, utmärkt frukost, bekväma gemensamma utrymmen. Hjälpsamma personal i receptionen, även med sen ankomst, och trevliga personal i köket. Laddare till elbil en annan plus. Kul att se elevernas artistiska föremål överallt. Vill gärna övernatta här igen. Varmt rekommenderas!

Pros:

L'hôtel était désert et il n'y avait aucun service à notre disposition: pas de personnel à la réception, restaurant fermé, aucune nourriture disponible...
Pourquoi proposer des chambres, si l'hôtel n'est pas fonctionnel ?

Greit
Pros:

Savnet betjening i resepsjonen. F.eks fra kl 15-18
Rommet var kaldt. Panelovnen virket ikke.
Fikk varme på badet, og en varm dusj.
Stille og rolig sted. Enkelt og pent.
Vært der flere ganger.

Enkelt men ok.
Pros:

En skola som är hotell när det finns lediga rum. Rymligt men enkelt ingen lyx. Saknade toa pappers hållare. Frukosten lika enkel den men allt som behövs för att bli mätt. Incheckningen skulle vara före 17:00 enligt mailet.
Det stämde inte för oss iallafall den var öppen till 22:00 och efter det öppnar natt vakten som i vårt fall blev 23:45. Mycket trevlig och tjänstvillig personal.
