Ok room, very kind waiting me as I checked in late
I was in a studio room, that is not located in the main building. When I showed I wish for cleaning the sign was always blown away by the wind and staff did not see it. They should care about it a little bit more.
Extremely retro/out-dated spa hotel. Was a unique timecapsule experience, but the main building is in desperate need of renovations.
Pool facilities are mediocre but was ok for a swim and some splashes with the family for a small amount of time.
The family room had a bizzare loft bed hanging from the ceiling with no way to get on to it but jump up - not very convenient and difficult for kids. Nothing like the description or photo. Room lock system also was usually not working as cards didnt unlock the door easily.
Not a horrible experience but won't likely visit again.

Mukava henkilökunta, kiva kylpylä, ravintolassa maittava illallinen, hyvä aamupala. Huoneet ehkä kaipaisi remonttia tälle vuosi tuhannelle, siistit on, mutta vanhat.

Huone oli vanhahko mutta kaunis talvinen maisema avautui ikkunoista/parvekkeelta.
Kylpylän vesihieronnat ja höyrysauna parasta.
Uutena oli kans, ettei uikkareita tarvii riisua saunoihin mennessä.

Henkilökunta oli todella ystävällistä hotellissa. Lemmikkihuone oli mukava, koirille tarjolla myös vesikuppi ja oma pyyhe. Kylpylä oli ihan kiva, ehkä joku sauna olisi voinut olla myös kylpylän puolella eikä vain pesutiloissa. Ulkoallas oli

Ihan ok Kylpylä. Hieno huone mutta kylpyläosasto kaipaa kunnostusta.
Huone oli kulahtanut, kylppärissä lattialämmitys ja pyyhekuivain ei toimineet, sängyn lukuvalot eivät toimineet ja seinävalo oli lukemiseen liian himmeä.
