Bør vurdere andre alternativer..
Medioker frokost - ikke veldig spennende utvalg utover det vanlige. Frokosten stengte kl 9.30 som også er kjedelig når man har ferie og kunne tenke seg rolige morgener. Veldig kaldt bad/rom.
Tildels sur betjening som ikke var så oppmerksomme eller interesserte i sine gjester. Ikke helt rent rom. Veldig lydt så man hører alle dører og andre gjester dunker og bråker.
Et veldig undertrykk så det suste og trakk/blåste så kaldt på badet.
Oppsummert leverte ikke dette oppholdet varene, men hotellet ligger sentralt og det er et pluss.
