Pros:

The room was quite spacious and the location was convenient.

Cons:

The breakfast was a little disappointing, with limited hot food options and too many pastries. The bathroom facilities were rather dated, particularly the hairdryer and toilet, which could do with an upgrade.

Beautiful
Pros:

Clearly, tidy and excellent service from all the staff. Hotel is beautiful.

Cons:

Not a dislike but could have had some more milk and water and sugar enough for 3 people to make hot beverages.

Inte fyrstjärnig
Pros:

Läget är bra, stora generösa rum. Frukost ok.

Cons:

Detta är klassat som 4 stjärnor men lever inte upp till det. Det är smutsiga mattor, städning var sisådär. Svartmögel i hörnen vid badkaret. AC fungerade mkt dåligt, är instängt. Gick dock att vädra genom att öppna fönstren. Inga krokar så man kan inte hänga upp något. Vid frukosten plockade man bort tallriken när man satt och åt från den- varför? hände två gånger?
Åt i hotellets restaurang en lördag kväll. Huvudrätten riktigt god! MEN det var elva personer i restaurangen totalt och det tog 30min innan beställning, jättevirrigt de två i personalen sprang tillsammans runt till borden var kaos och helt ostrukturerat. När maten kom som var god, då började någon dammsuga kl 21.00 en lördagskväll precis i entrén till restaurangen och dammsög länge!
Stället har jättemycket personal men det verkar inte finnas någon logistisk struktur.
Känns som man behöver uppdatera sig till 2026.
