Personalen frågade hels tiden om vi betalat trots ätt Vi visade kvitto.Frukost ingick heller inte enligt personalen men det stod det på expedia. Vi ville ändå inte gå dit som det såg ut där.Elledningar hängde lösa, där fanns ingen toalettring , wi-fi fungerade knappt på rummet.Sängarna var ok att ligga i.Enligt Expedia skulle hotellet vara 3-stjärnigt vilket är helt fel skulle vara knappt 1-stjärnigt.Kan tyvärr inte rekommendera hotellet.
