It looked differently then on the site. Disappointing actually. This hotel (or better to qualify as a motel) needs serious renovation. Cold, old and worn-out. Little bit creepy in the night, hearing different sounds and poor electricity (weak lights). Not pleasant stay!

El utaget vid sÀng var förlÀngning sladd uttag och skitet och inte mer Àn 1 ledigt uttag. SÀngbordet var rangligt o borde vara ett vid varje sÀng och mer praktiskt. Hall mattan nÀr man kommer in pÄ rummet var sÄ hal sÄ man glider ivÀg pÄ golvet varje gÄng man gick in eller ut. Borde nog bytas. Förslag till olika belysning pÄ toaletten. En över handfat o en i taket att vÀlja olika ljusstyrka och Àven inne i rummet i taket. En vid korridoren och en inne i stora rummet. Frukosten kan förbÀttras med inte dela pÄ bullen till kaffet samt pannkakor till barnen eller nÄgot lÀttare Àven till frukost.

Perfekt för shopping. Frukosten lite kalla varmrÀtter. Var slitet skrivbord sÄg ut som man hackat i bordet. Stod en lapp om man var tvungen ha dörren helt stÀngd nÀr man duschade annars gick larmet. DÀrför duschade vi inte. Eftersom toaletten var liten. Blir det en klaustrofobisk kÀnsla.
