Hotellet har sett sina bästa dagar och skulle behöva renoveras och moderniseras. Handfatet i badrummet läckte. Det var rent och bra städat men sängen var väldigt hård.

Godt hotel

Godt rummeligt enkelt værelse, god seng, meget god morgenmad, desværre ikke aftensmad da rest. var lukket på grund af sygdom, meget venligt personale, gratis parkering, god beliggenhed når man skal til fodbold, 10min gang til S-Bahn, vil helst sikkert vælge dette hotel igen.
