Bra läge - helt ok ställe

Helt ok för en natts sömn. Rummen ligger i samma hus som Sjötorps livs och där checkar man in samt hämtar sin frukostbricka. Utsikt över kanalen som det står på hotels.com för vissa rum stämmer egentligen inte, du ser kanalbron från rummen men den verkliga utsikten är antingen landsvägen eller en innergård. Rummet var helt ok, enda problemet ett felbyggt badrum vilket gjorde golvet genomblött när man duschade. Vänliga människor i butiken och man gjorde verkligen allt för att gästerna skall trivas, plus också för en härlig terass med utemöbler och ett bra wifi, gratis och snabbt. Väl fungerande kylskåp, två kokplattor och enkel köksutrustning fanns också tillgängligt. Dessutom fri parkering Stället är lite slitet och skulle må bra av lite uppfräschning, men överlag en helt ok övernattning för ett rimligt pris. Läget är perfekt (bortsett från utsikten), nära kanalen och slussarna och de restauranger, butiker och caféer som ligger i anslutning till den.

Bra sängar men fick bädda själv. Bra frukost men fick hämta själv i butiken. Enkelt boende med endast tvål vid handfatet. Alltför dyrt i förhållande till standard. Kan absolut inte kallas de luxe rum. Står i beskrivning att det är utsikt mot kanalen. Ligger vid bilväg.

Jättetrevligt bemötande.

Jättetrevligt bemötande av ägarna/personalen. Enda minus var att duschgolvet hade fel lutning så det blev väldigt blött över hela badrummet när man duschat. Annars var allt jättebra. 😊 Mysigt område.
