First of, they do not have AC in the room. Unbearable, just a small table fan, a loud one at that. Second, need to get better at responding to messages. Tried several times without reply. Other than that the hotel is okey, very nice and welcoming staff. Nice breakfast.

Unfortunately, our room was very hot during our stay. Although a fan was provided, it did little to cool the room down. We couldn’t keep the window open because of the heavy traffic noise just outside, which made it difficult to sleep. We asked if it was possible to change rooms, but unfortunately, no other rooms were available. We also had our bikes parked outside, and during the night someone stole the toolboxes mounted on them. This was not the hotel’s fault, but it did make us feel that the surrounding area was not particularly secure.

Bra rum, gillar speciellt att det var kodlås på rumsdörrarna. Det fanns parkering precis utanför hotellet men det var alltid fullt, så vi fick parkera i ett parkeringshus rakt över gatan som blev väldigt dyrt. Kolla upp om ni hittar någon billigare parkering.

Zu wenig Parkplätze ind kostenpflichtig. Wer hier bucht bezahlt für 2 Erw. + 2 Kinder 70€ zusätzlich fürs Frühstück! Tisch muss selber gedeckt werden. Preise an der Bar sehr teuer.
