Nice hotel. The room was great and we were offered an upgrade (for a fee) which was good. The pillows were a smallish and hard but not uncomfortable. The light switches were a challenge.

The room is very clean and spacious, although we were next to the road which is noisy even at night and the road was dug up outside starting at 9am. Breakfast was good, not sure about the quality of the sausages. Pool is good and the sauna is a nice extra. Dinner was disappointing, we ordered steaks and both were tough, spoke to the restaurant manager and he said that he would speak to the chef, but nothing was done. Waited ten minutes for the bill and then asked a second person. Waited a further ten minutes to remove the bill and no update from the chef. Very disappointing dinner for the the price. Location is good, with a regular bus service into the city.
