Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Avoid. 1. This property has bed bugs. 2. This property is located over a karaoke bar and there's loud activity outside that continues to 5am that will prevent you from having a restful sleep. 3. Because of this convenient location to the night life in the old town, many people rent a room strictly to party all night and return frequently to nap for an hour to go out again. I saw many people bring cases of beer into their room while checking in. 4. This property does not enforce quiet rules after a certain hour. 5. Guests frequently smoke openly in the bathrooms and common areas. 6. The property does not have an attendant after certain hours. 7. While English is widely spoken in all the Nordic and Baltic countries, the attendants will feign not knowing English if they sense a problem.

They skimp on everything! No heat, they give you an extra blanket, that's why all the guests are cold! Mattress in room 4 needs to be replaced! Female Russian staff member so unhelpful. Check in is not welcoming; took me 25 minutes. I could not wait to get the hell out of there. The only good thing was the warm shower

A hostel, nothing more

If you have no choice, you can stay. But not worth the money for a single room (26 €). You have to call on the phone to get in (what if my battery is dead). The greeting is beyond friendly. Every time the light goes on in the hall you see it in the room. Also can be loud in the street, from passing by drunks, as in the middle of the oldtown. Which makes it also a good location if you look for this.

Fue fácil encontrarlo. El chico de la recepción con muy mal modo. Quejándose de que a mi me había salido barata la habitación pero para él era pérdida (una habitación individual, pero tenía 3 camas). De mala manera me dijo que elija una cama y que ni siquiera me siente en las otras porque debería cobrarme extra.
