Pros:

Lå godt tæt på byen

Cons:

Når man har 4 overnatninger og opholder sig noget på værelset ,er det ikke meget med en spisestuestol til 2 Pers.Når vi var på værelset skulle vi ligge i sengene eller skiftes til at sidde på en hård spisestuestol

Totalt sett trevlig Göta Kanal upplevelse. Hotellet motsvarade inte förväntningarna.
Pros:

Bra med gratis parkering. Nära till centrum. Afterwork pris på vin.

Cons:

Saknades belysning ovanför badrumsspegeln. Ingen utsikt från fönstret, täckt med jalusi. 2x80 säng, med 2x90 madrasser. Högt pris för rummet, i förhållande till dess standard.

En perfekt nostalgitripp!
Pros:

Min fru är uppvuxen i Motala och ville 50 år senare komma tillbaka till stan med denna nostalgitripp. Vi kunde återse hennes hembygd till fots en dag, från cykelsadeln en dag och genom bilutflykt den tredje dagen. Fantastiska miljöer och bra utgångspunkt att starta utflykterna från hotellet. Därutöver rejäla, omfångsrika och goda frukostar. Vi hade dessutom förmånen av att ha både balkong och bastu i vårt rum.

Cons:

Lite trångt runt sängarna.
