    "Pris og kvalitet er ikke sammenhængende. Lille hotel, der mangler vedligeholdelse og god rengøring. OK seng, som til gengæld fylder hele værelset. Ungt personale, venlige - placeret i den mindste reception som var en pc og et skrivebord. Meget stor og livlig bar (hvor også morgenmad kunne indtages). Super beliggenhed i et livligt kvarter."

    "The hotel hosts wedding receptions in the restaurant, complete with a DJ, which we could hear from our room, and which kept us awake until 1am. Then the next night they had a ceilidh which kept us awake until after midnight. They need to decide if they are a hotel or a nightclub/entertainment venue, because they do a terrible job of being both at once. I would not stay here again."
