Correct
Pros:

L accueil du personnel à notre arrivée et celui de nuit. Le hall d accueil donne vraiment envie.la grandeur de la chambre. La qualité du petit déjeuner.

Cons:

Chambre bruyante : ascenseur, passage des clients parlant fort devant notre chambre pour aller salle de restauration ou prendre l ascenseur. La chambre fait très vieillotte : décalage impressionnant avec le hall d accueil
Manque un petit frigo.

Todella erinomainen yöpymispaikka koirien kanssa yövyttäessä. Koirat kiittävät herkkusäkeistään.
Pros:

Eriomainen

Cons:

Huoneeseen tullessa illalla on täysin pimeää ja ei meinannut löytyä sille käyntikorttiavaimelle oikeaa paikkaa. Olisi hyvä, jos siellä olisi jonkinlainen yövalo palamassa, ettei tarvitse pimeässä tarpoa!

Unzufriedentheit
Cons:

Das Zimmer entsprach überhaupt nicht den Bildern von der Webseite Booking.com
Die Bilder zeigen nur die renovierten Zimmer aber die Kunde von Booking.com werden zu den alten unrenovierten Zimmer eingeparkt : kalt, muffig. einfach eine Frechheit.

Pros:

Μας ενημέρωσαν πως λόγω εργασιών ανακαίνισης, μας μεταφέρουν στο Karhu hotel, 200m δίπλα. Οπότε τα σχόλια ειναι για αυτό το ξενοδοχείο. Ευγενικο και χαμογελαστό προσωπικό. Υπέροχο, πλούσιο και ποικίλο πρωινό. Εχει ωραίο σαλόνι στη ρεσεψιόν του ξενοδοχείου και μπιλιάρδο να παίξεις εάν θες, δωρεάν! Έτσι περάσαμε το βράδυ μας εκει. Δωρεάν, ασφαλες, αλλα ανοιχτό πάρκινγκ. Εκεί αφήσαμε τις μηχανές μας.

Cons:

Κανονικά λόγω εργασιών δεν θα έπρεπε να δίνεται το ξενοδοχείο ως διαθέσιμο. Αφού δεν ειναι. Τα μπάνια καλο θα ηταν να ανακαινιστουν κάποια στιγμή. Πολύ στενά.
