Comfortable and good location
Pros:

Breakfast was very nice and also the location is very convenient. Good restaurants around.
At the reception, there are fruits, cookies and coffee which was very nice.

Pros:

Hår och hudvårds produkter i badrummet var mycket hög kvalitet och bra märke. Sängen var väldigt skönt att sova i. Dusch i badrummet var bra. Öppningsbart fönster. Kuddarna i sängen var bra. Trevligt med te och kaffe på rummet. Fanns en extra toalett pappers rulle. Spegeln med guldram i badrummet och helkropps spegeln. Inf när jag checkade in automatiskt om vart hiss fanns samt vart frukost serveras bla. Inbjudande ingång till hotellet med själv öppnande dörrar. Samt matta i trappan ute för säker gång. Trevliga tapeter i hissen. Mycket att välja på frukostbuffen.

Cons:

Lång trappa vid ingången samt lite väl mkt små trappor och ojämna golvytor. Heltäckningsmatta inne på rummet, sånt känns ofräsch särskilt då den inte kändes riktigt rengjord. Det låg hår efter någon annan kvar på mattan samt på badrummet när jag kom in. Golv beläggningen i badrummet var små klinkerplattor hala så det kändes osäkert att resa sig från toa och stå och duscha. När man duschade blev det blöt mot badrumsdörren samt stor del av golv ytan för dusch väggen var fast och gick halv vägs och det var svårt att få torrt sen pga av att det bara fanns ett mindre badlakan en liten golvhanduk samt liten hand handuk. För att torka håret fanns inget. Ingen hand dukshängare fanns. Gardinerna hade fläckar, påslakanet var betydligt större än själva täcket. Det fanns damm( samt andra ställen) under tepåsarna plus att tepåsarna såg ofräscha ut. Det kändes inte nystädat bara igenom slarvat. Stora kassar stod på golvet med linne i, inte så inbjudande. Golvet som inte var heltäckningsmatta borde ha efter torkats för att undvika halkrisk. Frukostbuffen med leverpastej som var dålig samt aldrig gurka. Man fick vänta ett bra tag på löskockta ägg och när det fylldes på var det bara ett fåtal. Trånga och slingrade ytor. Hade varit bättre att ha all mat i ett rum och stolar/ bord i det största istället. Svårt att hitta någon ledig plats. Små trånga bord och hopträngda stolar. Nästan omöjligt att få plats men benen. Assietten jag tog hade äggskal på undersidan. Var bara en av personalen som hejade och visade på service när jag checkade in på fredagen 5/6. Ingen vid något annat tillfälle. Det var dubbelt så dyrt som Scandic hotell jag besökte i början av maj men inte hälften så bra ens.

Hôtel confortable mais passez votre chemin si vous craignez le bruit
Pros:

Literie, emplacement , petit déjeuner

Cons:

Beaucoup de bruit dans un bar avec de la musique qui nous a empêché de dormir jusqu’à 3 heures du matin ; les fenêtres sont en simple vitrage.
