The reception was very friendly and check-in went smoothly.
The room was large enough and well equipped.
The breakfast was really good, there was a lot of choice.

Litet men trevligt hotell
Litet hotell, trevlig serviceinriktad personal i receptionen / bar. Lite slitet skick, inte helt städat. Fin mindre frukost men ändå med gott utbud. Ingen egen parkering men gott och allmänna parkeringar i närheten.

Bra frukost
Trevligt hotell centralt i Karlstad. Sköna sängar och mycket bra frukost. Vi hade ett rum med fin utsikt över Klarälven.
