Tiny room
The room was tiny and we received a downgrade instead of the upgrade.
The reservation was for a room with bathtube….the picture of the bathroom will explain.
Excellent staff, very good breakfast, clean, modern room, worst bathroom design ever. Architect obviously thought to cleverly fit everything into a closer space but must have never tried to sit at the toilet or take a shower. Coumd jave worked if he had turned things around.
The restaurant was not open on Christmas Day except for breakfast. Hotel staff told us restaurants around town would be open on Christmas Day. This was incorrect. As no restaurants were open and we went hungry on Christmas Day
Olimme ns. koirahuoneessa. Huoneessa ei ollut juomalaseja, WC-paperia pieni jämä. Olisi ollut kiva lisä jos huoneessa olisi jääkaappi. Lisäksi peitot olivat todella paksut ehkä hyvät talvella, mutta kesäaikaan ne olivat ehdottomasti liian paksut.
Vi er ikke fornøyd med oppholdet.
Vi hadde bestilt overnatting i to døgn, men reiste etter en natt.
Årsak: Det var veldig lytt på hotellet. I etasjen under oss var det bryllup med høy musikk, vi fikk ikke sove før etter klokka 02:00 på natten. Også veldig lytt mellom rommene.
Badet var svært lite, nærmest et kott. Det manglet håndklær.
Vi ble krevd for betaling sjøl om vi hadde forhåndsbetalt, måtte vise kvittering.
Senga var god, frokosten var god.
