Perushotelli
Cons:

Perushotelli, joka ei jää millään tavalla mieleen. Vegeprotskut puuttui aamiaiselta. Ei ne puurot varmaan sekasyöjillekään se ykkösjuttu ole.

Huone siisti,rauhallisella paikalla.Aamiainen monipuolinen.

Cons:

Huomasimme,että joidenkin huoneita alettiin siivota,vaikka uloskirjautuminen klo 12 mennessäJa olivat vielä majoittumassa.Jos tupa täynnä,niin lisää henkilökuntaa paikalle.Meillä kuitenkin kaikki ok..

Pros:

Sehr gute Lage zu Museen, Shopping und ÖNV. Großes Zimmer.

Cons:

Typisch nordische Dusche, die das ganze Bad unter Wasser setzt.
Vor allem aber war es schmutzig. Diverse Dinge lagen unter dem Bed, Flecken und Haare auf Polstern, alle Schalter klebrig und auf Oberflächen und Fußboden massig Staub. Unter dem Dofatisch klebte Kaugummi. Trotz meiner Bitte um gründliche Reinigung blieb es schmutzig. Im Bad war es ok.

Pros:

Ystävällinen aamiaisen vastaanottovirkailija(?) aamulla 22.7. Aamiaistila, taidettiin olla baari puolella raikas ja valoisa.

Cons:

Sadesuihku on järkyttävä. Kauhea pelaaminen sen kanssa.
Olusikohan mahdollista löytää vielä "normaali" suihku. Edes vaihtoehtona?

Vastaanoton laukkuvarasto jäätävän täynnä
Eikö ole mahdollista lisätä vaikka toista vastaava varastoa?
Kyseessä 21.7 iltapäivä.

Pros:

Sijainti

Cons:

Huoneen 310 ilmastointi ei toiminut ja huone oli tunkkaisen kuuma. Piti käydä.suihkussa että pystyi käydä nukkumaan ja yöunet jäivät heikoiksi kuumuuden ja hikoilun vuoksi. Lisäksi jostain syystävä meidän käytävän valot olivat illalla saapuessamme pois joten aika pimeää oli.
