Cons:

1. Kylpyhuoneen "partapeili" on nimenomaan miehille tarkoitettu , Ei lyhyille naisille meikkauspeiliksi.
2. Suihkun hanat mustat, merkinnät epäselvät, symboleja ei pysty tulkitsemaan ilman silmälaseja. Ehkä suunnittelijalla on hyvä näkö tai hän käy suihkussa lasit päässä. Kaksi sai vedet yllättäen niskaansa. Helena

Pros:

The staff was amazing, they even met my special request of receiving a room with a bathtub. Additionally, the location is amazing, perfect for a short holiday in Helsinki, since the inner city can be reached by foot without problems!
The hotel is also just about a 10min walk from the main train station of Helsinki (it is hill upwards though in case you have trouble walking).

Pros:

.

Cons:

Två av oss fyra hittade hår i vårt äggsmör. När vi berättar det till servitören säger denne bara ojdå. Han går sedan och tittar på skålen men tar inte bort den.
Jag berättade detta i receptionen lite senare. Ingen kompensation men ursäkt i alla fall. Vi kunde inte äta frukosten första morgonen för att vi tappade lusten efter fynden av hår. Detta drar ner helhetsintrycket mycket. Frukost är viktig del för mig i vistelsen.

Wir waren für 4 Tage am Marathon und konnten ein paar entspannte Tage in diesem Hotel geniessen.
Pros:

Zimmer war gross, und mit allem benötigten ausgestattet. Sonst war auch das Frühstücksbuffet sehr gross und für alle was da, auch Laktosefreie, Hafer- oder normale Milch, sowie separat aufgestelltes Glutenfreies Brot und Müsli. Säfte waren nur aus Konzentrat, aber dennoch ganz OK. Kaffee war wie Filterkaffee.. aber in allem war das Frühstück ganz gut und reichhaltig. Spannend war die Tafel im Restaurant-Eingang. Foodwaste wurde in % pro Gast angegeben. Zum einen finde ich das super, das hilft hoffentlich die nimmersatten Gäste zu sensibilisieren, dass sie immer wieder ans Buffet können, und nicht riesige Berge auf die Teller laden und dann nicht aufessen. Aber ich hätte gerne gewusst, wie diese %-Zahl gemessen wird.

Cons:

Im Zimmer fehlten Kleiderbügel. Beide Schränke hatten nur Stangen, aber insgesamt nur 3 Kleiderbügel. Schade. Sonst war nur die Toilettenspülung der anderen Zimmer zu hören. Aber auch nur, wenn es ganz still war.

Pros:

Ystävällinen henkilökunta. Erinomainen sijainti minun matkaani. Aamiaisen tarjonta parhaita ja monipuolisinta mitä olen kohdannut suomalaisissa (ja ulkomaisissakin) hotelleissa. Santsikahvia ja terveysjuomashotteja tarjoiltiin pöytiin. Enpä ole aiemmin kohdannut samaa. Valitettavasti en päässyt testaamaan aamu/iltasaunaa koska ohjelmani oli niin kiireinen.

Cons:

Olen sanaton!
