Tolles Hotel um das Pupviertel kennenzulernen!
Pros:

Gutes Bett, gute centrale Lage mitten im Pupviertel und sehr gutes Frühstück.

Cons:

War Nachts sehr laut, aber das haben wir uns bei der Lage schon gedacht. Das Hotel hatte netterweise Ohrstöpsel bereit gelegt.

Bra läge men inte prisvärt
Pros:

Toppenläge, nära till allt. Trevliga allmönna utrymmen och hjälpsam personal.

Cons:

Hade ett singelrum på fjärde våningen som var alldeles för varmt, gick inte att justera. Fanns en golvfläkt som jag hade på för fullt men den svalkade inte utan fläktade bara. Sov dåligt i 4 nätter pga värmen i rummet (och det var inte extremt varmt ute heller. Duschen hade extremt dåligt tryck, som att tvätta håret i duggregn.Först kom det bara kallt vatten, sen blev det varmare och varmare och gick inte att justera till en behaglig nivå.

A comfortable, convenient and central location in a well-run hotel.
Pros:

The staff were lovely - from the security man, to the people at reception. The room was good.

Cons:

The room was hot. On a Saturday night, the noise from the street outside was loud.
