Tranqui.litat, comoditat i a l’abast de tot
Pros:

És un lloc tranquil i molt ben situat, amb llits supercòmodes. Una volta dins l’habitació domina el silenci més absolut. A més a més, l’esmorzar és molt bo i variat.

Cons:

Caldria afegir un petit frigorífic.

Modern, zentral und fahrradfreundlich
Pros:

Ich konnte mein Fahrrad sicher in einen separaten Raum, der nur für Räder gedacht war, abstellen.

Des Weiteren liegt das Hotel sehr zentral, gleich gegenüber befindet sich das Museum HAM und nur wenige Minuten zu Fuß Einkaufsmöglichkeiten.

Das Frühstück war reichhaltig.

Mein Zimmer war modern eingerichtet, vor allem das Deckenbild verlieh dem Raum eine angenehme Atmosphäre.

Cons:

Für Perfektion könnte das Bad noch etwas sauberer sein und das Rührei weniger wässrig - aber wer will schon Perfektion ;)

Viihdyttiin!
Pros:

Erittäin siisti ja viihtyisä. Huoneen hintaan sisältyvä sauna oli erinomainen. Aamiainen oli monipuolinen ja sijainti hyvien kulkuyhteyksien ja keskustan palvelujen äärellä.

Cons:

Huone ole vähän liian lämmin.

Good hotel in a very convenient location
Pros:

Comfortable hotel in a good location (walking distance from the train and bus stations ; lots of trams and bus stops nearby).
Excellent in site breakfast with lots of choice.
Very good sauna.
Excellent staff, smiling and efficient.
Microwave and 1 table &chairs in the lobby.

Cons:

The single room is relatively small (no comfortable chair) but well organized. Very small bathroom too. A comfortable chair and a minifridge in the room would have made my stay more plaisant.

Pros:

Absolutely great hotel with very helpful staff Mika, I believe was his name, was extremely understanding and helpful with an issue I had and resolved the problem quickly.
The rooms are really nice, clean and comfy beds.
The breakfast was delicious and had a vast choice of sweat and savoury. The sauna room is small but really cosy, super clean and well organised. I would absolutely stay again.

Cons:

Noise from ventilation system in certain rooms
