Flott hotell som ligger veldig sentralt. Gåavstand til restauranter og handlegate. Stille og rolig strøk. Store og flotte rom. Veldig behjelpelig og hyggelig personale. Veldig god frokost.

Cons:

Litt hardere senger og puter. Aircondition virket dårlig. Bar/restaurant var liten og trang.

Pros:

La ubicación muy buena.

Cons:

Para ser un 4 estrellas habitaciones pequeñas, cama no muy cómoda y sin minibar. En la habitación que nos tocó había un ruido 24/7 que venia del aire o de una tubería.

I would stay here agai
Pros:

The location was great, walking distance to the metro, the river and many sites. Check in and check out were easy and the price was good.

Cons:

The coffee in the breakfast buffet was horrible. I tried several of the coffee machines each day and they were all bad. The rooms were fine but needed more space for unpacking. No dresser, just a small armour with no place to put suitcases. The room was very quiet. Overall, the great location offset the minor deficiencies.
