Rauhallinen, siisti hotelli. Henkilökunta ammattitaitoista ja ystävällistä. Vessan lattia häiritsi hieman, oli kovin kylmä. Aamupalatarjoilu yltäkylläinen. Pöytien likaisista astioista tyhjentäminen kovin hidasta, mikä häiritsi aamupalaa.

Paikka oli siisti, yleisilme tuore, asiakaspalvelija sisäänkirjautuessa ystävällinen, fiksu ja persoonallinen. Aamupalan porrastus onnistui kohtuullisen hyvin, ja kaikinpuolin homma toimi niinkuin olettaa sopii

Palvelu jo hotellille saavuttaessa oli erittäin mukavaa, missään aiemmin ei ole otettu asiakasta niin hyvin huomioon. Huone oli siisti ja huoneen teeman sai valita itse. Aamupala oli laadukas ja kaikki kaikki tarpeellinen löytyi. Kuntosalikin oli hotellin saliksi ok.

Bra läge och bra hotell.

Bokade en svit för min bonus. Jättefint rum. Hotellet ligger mitt i centrum. Det är lite svårt att hitta, men det sitter ihop med ett stort shoppingcenter, så håll utkik efter det. Svårt att hitta parkeringar i området. Det finns en restaurang och ett café i anslutning till hotellet. Massor med shopping och restauranger inom närområdet. Jag har bott här tre gånger och återkommer gärna.

Tyylikkäästi remointoitu

Hotelli on ilmeisesti vastikään remontoitu. Lopputulos on on hyvin siisti ja tyylikäs. Aamiainen oli erinomainen. Ainoa pieni tyylirikko on hieman epäsiisti ja sokkeloinen sisääntuloaula, jos arvostelisi hotellin vain sen perusteella niin pisteet jäisivät alhaisiksi. Aula ei ole missään suhteessa hyvin tyylikkäisiin käytäviin ja huoneisiin.
