I was there for about one week and the room was never cleaned, despite the fact that I asked them to do it every second day. I gave them a reminder on 3rd day, but still they didn't do it.

Jeg fikk inntrykk av at frokosten var inkludert og det var den ikke. Den var ganske dyr og vi var ikke sÄ imponert. Baconet var ikke bacon men stekt skinke, eggerÞren var en pulver suppe og det var ingen kaffe valgmuligheter. Eller hyggelig betjening og koselig lobby. Rene rom
