Pros:

Kylpylä oli kiva

Cons:

Hotellissa oli rahastuksen makua. Huoneessa olisi voinut olla edes pieni jääkaappi ja henkareita.

No conditioning, extremely warm in the hotel, safety issues in the kitchen
Pros:

There is no air conditioning anywhere in the hotel, including the rooms, so the air feels extremely stuffy and there is hardly anything to breathe. The windows only open about 10 cm, which makes the rooms unbearably hot, even during a Danish summer. There is an old-style ceiling fan, but it doesn’t make much difference.

The same problem exists throughout the hotel, including the kitchen and common areas. The only thing you want is to get outside for some fresh air.

The children’s beds are not proper bunk beds but rather shelves with mattresses. Our kids nearly fell off them several times, so we ended up sleeping on the floor.

As for breakfast, it was overcrowded during the high season. The scrambled eggs smelled awful, as if they had been made with spoiled milk. On the first day, my 4-year-old daughter found a piece of plastic in her eggs, and after that she was afraid to eat breakfast there for the rest of our stay.

There was no kettle or refrigerator in the room. This is definitely not what I would expect from a four-star hotel.

On the positive side, the water park is amazing.
