Alldeles för dyrt, frukost ingick inte i priset. Bar och restaurang fanns, men ingen personal. Vi ringde på en klocka och ropade, men ingen dök upp. Mjölken till kaffe/tebrickan på rummet var så gammal att den var stenhård! Rummet var förberett till en person fast det var bokat för två. Dålig dusch och gammalt ofräscht badrum. Däremot skall personalen (1) som serverade frukost ha en eloge, mycket vänlig och hjälpsam. Frukosten var till belåtenhet även om den var snål, man fick be om extra allt. ##### inger Stayed 2 nights in May 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 13 May 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Room very comfortable and pleasant (a free upgrade).
