Fantastisk frukost och riktigt sköna sängar. Rummet som sådant var rätt ordinärt. Mycket ljud från raggarbilarna som cruisade utanför och spelade hög musik både fredag och lördag natt.

Bra läge, trevligt hotell. + väldigt bra service på frukost med påfyllning av vissa saker vid bordet. En stor och god buffet! - dåligt ljudisolerade fönster på rummet vilket gjorde att man fick höra raggarbilarna utanför halva natten utan någon form av dämpning
