スタッフがとても親切で、安心して過ごせる

ショッピングモールの中にあり、場所は少しわかりずらいですが、警備の人が常に在住し、安心して過ごせました。少し歩けば、マーケトやスーパーなどもあり、観光にも便利な場所にあります。レストランはありますが、ビールが置いていなかったので、ビールが置いてあるお店を尋ねると、何軒かスタッフが一緒についてきてくれお店を巡り、探してくれました。いつもレセプションのスタッフや警備の人はフレンドリーで、滞在中困らないように手助けしてくれました。ただ、原因はスタフもわからなかったようですが、2日の滞在のうち1日は、夜からずっとWi-Fiが繋がらないなかったのが、残念でした。

Billigt men meget larm

Meget larm, fra selve hotellet og dets restaurant, ikke altid varmt vand. Vær obs på moskeens morgenvækning kl 6🙂
