Meget bedre end forventet

Vi var super tilfredse. Gode senge og rene. Vi skulle bare bruge en seng for natten, så forventningerne var ikke høje og efter at have læst anmeldelserne var vi også lidt bekymret. Men vi var SÅ tilfredse og sov virkelig godt.

Only for traveler

Its for people that wants to continue the travel the day after. And for people that is working just to get some sleep for one day. If you want 2 days then see place first. Not enough parking spots some of the days its taken by other guests.

Bad stay

Not a nice place. Paperthin walls. The photos are not reliable. At arrivel we were told it's not a pet friendly place. Although it's advertised. We had to pay extra fee for betsheats although it should be included as it says in the advertise. Hotels.com was very helpfull and we received acceptabel compensation.

Réservé aux baroudeurs.

Hébergement en auberge de jeunesse, assez spartiate. Espaces exigus dans la chambre, pas beaucoup de place pour les bagages, peu d'espaces communs, salle de bains et toilette au sous-sol en passant par la réception. Je ne m'attendais certes pas à un 3 étoiles, mais là c'était vraiment rude !
