Pros:

Heerlijk en uitgebreid ontbijt.
Het gevraagde ligbad werd perfect voorzien.
Leuk dat de wagen binnen geparkeerd kon worden, zo moest niet alle bagage uitgeladen worden.

Pros:

All the rest

Cons:

The windows don't open, like in many finnish hotels, and that's claustrophobic. Air freshening has to be done through the aircon. What if someone doesn't want it?

Great hotel in a central location
Pros:

A comfortable and modern hotel in a central location. Handy for the city centre, and only a short walk to the sights and parks. Breakfast was good. Staff friendly.

Yhden yön työmatka
Pros:

Original Sokos Hotel Arina sijaitsee erinomaisella paikalla aivan Oulun keskustassa. Kävely rautatieasemalta hotellille toimi hyvänä aktiviteettina pitkän junamatkan jälkeen.

Viereisestä ostoskeskuksesta löytyy kätevästi esimerkiksi uusi kauluspaita, kun sellainen sattui jäämään kotiin.

Coworking alue käytävällä toimi mukavana ympäristönä meilien lähettämiseen.
