Hotel Odinsve

"The hotel is right in the center of downtown. We were able to walk to pretty much everything. The bus stop for tours is just 5 min walk away. The bed was comfortable, staff was very nice and breakfast provided with your stay is just perfect. The restaurant is also convient for dinner w great food. The rooms are a good size for 2 people w a king bed. The bathroom is a little small but nothing that bothered us. Hairdryer provided , towels, and nice heater to beat the chill. There is no ac or refrigerator in case you require one."
