Würde leider nicht nochmal buchen…
Pros:

Leider hat uns das Hotel nicht gefallen.
Wir haben es nur für eine Nacht gebucht wegen der späten Ankunft 🛬
Nach Ankunft wurden wir nett empfangen aber nach Zutritt des Zimmer die Enttäuschung die Bettwäsche Handtücher ist so richtig grau hab mich nicht wohl gefühlt in dem Bett 😢dadurch war der Schlaf sehr kurz aber auch der Lärm von draußen da es mitten in der Stadt liegt war nicht auszuhalten….

Cons:

Bettwäsche +Handtücher

Flott byhotell!
Pros:

Sengene, personalet og deres hjelp for at vi skal ha det bra, aircon er super, nært sentrum, mye for pengene! Rent og pent. Veldig hjelpsomt og hyggelig personale!

Cons:

Likte alt, men skulle gjerne sett at terrassen var åpen etter frokost også. Savnet et basseng, men kort vei til stranda.

Pros:

Gute Lage. Vom Flughafen mit dem Stadtbus gut zu erreichen. Nachdem Ausstieg nur noch ca 70 m zum Hotel. Preis wenn man am Ticketcenter Ticket holt 1,30 Euro, beim Busfahrer 2,30 m.
In die Altstadt nur 10-15 min zu Fuss. Hafen auch fussläufig gut erreichbar.
Zum Frühstück kann ich nichts sagen da wir vor sieben Uhr auschecken mussten weil unser Schiff ging. Am Tag vorher angesprochen bekamen wir eine Lunchbag mit auf den Weg.

Cons:

Nichts was wichtig wäre...

Perfect for a long weekend break
Pros:

The hotel is very central and just a short walk away from the centre, for shops, restaurants and bars. Breakfast was good with plenty to choose from. Rooms were a reasonable size and kept clean by housekeeping.

Cons:

Our room was very hot, which unfortunately the air conditioning was not able to get cool.
