Schon bei Ankunft begegnet man sehr freundlichen Mitarbeitenden, dies ist während dem gesamten Aufenthalt so, man wird immer gegrüßt und fühlt sich allein dadurch schon sehr wohl. Ich war mit meinem Zimmer sehr zufrieden und die Gemeinschaftsdusche war sehr sauber und groß genug. Das Frühstücksbuffet hat meine „Erwartungen“ übertroffen, man startet gestärkt in den Tag und für unterwegs kann man sich für einen sehr günstigen Preis Brötchen oder Sandwiches machen, das war für mich die mit dem Rad unterwegs ist natürlich super! Alles in allem ein super Start für meine Tour.

Hade ett enkelrum för övernattning en natt. Rent och fräscht. Trevlig och hjälpsam personal. Positivt överraskad att det fanns toa på rummet trots att det stått ”delad toalett” när jag beställde. Den var dock extremt liten… men supercharmig ☺️ Behöver jag ha hotell i Kalmar igen blir det lätt Svanen. Promenadavstånd till stan, lugnt när man ska sova och frukostbuffén var god. 👌🙏

Ett bra hotell. Rummen små men för en person så okej. Ligger perfekt till om man ska till Öland, annars en fin promenad in till stan. Frukost med nybakat bröd. Inga varma rätter mer än gröt och ägg, men räckte gott och väl för mig. Återkommer gärna!

Ligger långt från buss och tågstation. Inga bussar att ta. Taxi oklart var de var. Personal svarade på frågor som ej var ställda, lite bråttom. Rummet kokhett, fönstret kunde öppnas mer än ca 5 cm. Inga persienner eller solskydd på utsidan. Fruktost helt ok. Bra var att det gick att köpa med sig frukost för den som ville.
