Pros:

Maten - utmärkt frukost och middag
Ett enkelt men fungerande gym
Provade inte pool men bra att det fanns
Trevlig personal

Cons:

Allt bra överskuggades av sömnproblemen.
De hade ett tunt frotteöverdrag på resårmadrassen istället för riktiga underlakan. Kliade och fruktansvärt obehagligt. Sov bara 4 timmar pga detta, vaknade varje gång jag rörde på mig.
Det var också väldigt varmt i stugan trots att det bara var 14 grader ute. En fläkt i badrummet lät hela natten.

Would be a 10, but management disappointed
Pros:

The hotel is inside a golf course with wonderful landscape and views.
We stayed in a spacious room. Good amenities.
Breakfast and dinner were also very good.

Cons:

Our stay was clouded by an incident: The hotel management failed to communicate a planned power outage during the night.
I rely on uninterrupted power during my sleep for medical reasons, and this caused me some suffering. I was shocked and disappointed that the hotel didn't relay this information to the guests. This is gross negligence by the hotel.

Also: the temperature dial in the shower failed to work, so we were stuck with steaming hot water. They fixed it the next morning. But, it seems like they are too familiar with the issue, which hints to repeated maintenance problems.

Pros:

Our room was quite spacious, and the hotel was clean and quiet. We had the opportunity to use the hot tub in front of our room and were pleased with it. It's located on the ring road, which makes getting around very easy.
