Nice art and style. Bed was comfortable. Staff very friendly. Room equipped with Bluetooth soundbar. That is very nice. I don't use the TV in the hotels, but good sound is appreciated!

Everything! This hotel is amazing! Quiet and comfortable. The breakfast is great and offers a good selection of coffees and teas. One can ask for glutenfrei bread which will be given to you with a smile :) great experience every time I strongly recommend!

Amazing location, ample parking (paid). Very modern atmosphere with friendly staff. Spacious rooms, comfortable bed! Although we slept on the first floor near the highway, it was amazingly silent in the room.

Design, location, the warm welcome, and the room art. Room was cleaned daily with everything in place. The Entertainment system (TV, Internet, Speakers) were a cool addition to the room. Parking was available daytime just by the hotel and at night it won’t be hard to find a spot close by. Lobby felt unique to any other.

Lacking adequate furniture in room, it was good to have access to tables and chairs at any time so we could play games, despite the excessive piped music. Breakfast pretty good, and it was great to have real tea with properly boiling water.

Too much unwanted background music in restaurant. No proper chair in bedroom. Central heating hard to control.

Generally we were really happy. The only thing would help they could put some glasses in the room for water/taking medication. But this is just a suggestion.

The breakfast was quite basic. The location is not too good. Especially it is not good if you need to use public transportation. It is about 15mins to 20 mins walk from the main train station. There are no shops, no shopping center, nor kiosks near the hotel etc.

“CLEAN WITH EXCELLENT WHEELCHAIR FACILITIES BUT NOT A HOTEL”
- • Business trip
- • Group
- • Stayed 14 nights
I WOULD CLASS THIS HOTEL AS A 1 STAR ACCOMMODATION. IT DID NOT PROVIDE THE FACILITIES OF A HOTEL. IT DOES NOT HAVE A CHEF AT THE WEEKEND AND SOMETIMES DURING THE WEEK AND THIS HAPPENED SO RANDOMLY. THE STAFF WAS ALWAYS OUTSIDE SMOKING. PARTICULARLY THE BAR STAFF AT NIGHT. THERE WAS NO WAY TO TELL WHAT MEMBER OF STAFF YOU WERE TALKING TO DUE TO NO UNIFORMS. IT IS NOT GOOD VALUE FOR MONEY. THE PRICE NEEDS TO BE MUCH LOWER AND IT NEEDS TO BE ADVERTISED AS A BUSINESS B&B. IT IS A ONE NIGHT ONLY ACCOMMODATION. .
IT WAS SPOTLESSLY CLEAN. THE WHEELCHAIR ACCESS WAS EXCELLENT COULD NOT BE FAULTED, BEDROOM, BATHROOM IN THE ROOMS AND OUT IN THE COMMUNITY AREAS, ALL LOCATION OF THE HOTEL. AS A BUSINESS B&B FOR ONE OR TWO NIGHTS AS LONG AS YOU DONT NEED AN EVENING MEAL, IT IS ADEQUATE.

There was a bad smell from the bath. When I opened water it disappeared for some time but then was back again and again. There is some problem with ventilation of the canalization system probably. Shower was impossible to fix, it was failing all the time, so I had to keep it all the time to wash. I could not find how to change temperature in the air conditioning. Ended up sleeping with open window.
Nice art and style. Bed was comfortable. Staff very friendly. Room equipped with Bluetooth soundbar. That is very nice. I don't use the TV in the hotels, but good sound is appreciated!
