8
Many guests described rooms as spotless and praised housekeeping, but a number reported bathroom cleanliness issues and concerns about sauna hygiene — overall mixed-to-positive.

8.8
Consistently very positive: staff frequently described as friendly, helpful and patient (notably with special needs and booking changes); reception praised for warm welcome and assistance.
Location
8.7
Multiple comments note the hotel is very well located or in a good location; a small minority cited location as a drawback, but overall location is a strong point.

Rooms were often described as comfortable and in good condition, though some guests noted lack of air conditioning/ventilation, warm rooms and limited in-room amenities for larger family rooms.
Amenities
8
Good family-friendly amenities (pool, kids' park, games room, gym) and breakfast space, but pool restrictions for children in the evening and isolated reports of sauna/fridge issues lower the score slightly.
Value for Money
8.4
Several reviewers explicitly said the rooms and breakfasts offered good value; one guest objected to an extra upgrade charge, but general sentiment supports solid value.
Food and Beverage
8.3
Breakfast buffet received strong praise for variety; dinner generally positive though some found restaurant food ordinary at times and reported slow service on busy nights.
