Needs work

One wing of the hotel needs work bad. The lights are very difficult to turn off. I couldn’t get my bathroom light to ever go out. Had to just shut the door so I could sleep.

I Have Learned To Lower My Expectations.

The staff is wonderful and friendly! They greet you and smile often. My only complaints are about the room, jacuzzi hours and gym locations. The room looked nothing like the pictures. In fact, it was dated. For instance, there was a swiveling base for an old, tube-style TV, bolted onto the dresser.As for the jacuzzi, the hours are limited, and it is closed on Sunday. It was the reason picked that hotel. Lastly, the gyms are in other buildings, which is not very convenient.

I arrived by train and the hotel is only a 5 minute walk away. The surrounding area is pleasant and a short walk to either the town centre or lake and harbour. The hotel has a bright and cheerful look and there is a good restaurant and bar on site.

Hotel was clean and friendly and central as I am a Finn and from Jyväskylä I wanted to be in centre of town as my sister’s have small apartments so me and my English husband booked the Alexandra for second time and I also held my big birthday party there some years ago, it was a full success. Nevertheless I wish to point out the following ; Our hotel room top mattress sheets were not straightened daily!! TV didn’t have any English or World services channels, we found that unusual and disappointing! Hotel Breakfast was very good but missed a little bit of variation as we stayed 7 days!! Hotel restaurant evening menus were not so varied as before in previous years !!

Good hotel near the railway station.
