WiFi did not work, and for the Fosshotel brand, this one is the most disappointing we have been at. Extremely costly paid parking, terrible Wi/Fi, and albeit some stay were so kind, no one wanted to be there… breakfast buffet was okay, but nothing to pay that much for.

Nice hotel close to the waterfront. Walkable to many sites and restaurants. Friendly staff. We stayed 3 days, went north and then stayed 3 more days. Rooms were a nice size. The first room was at the back. We couldn’t leave the window open as there was a really loud fan going. Second room was at front. Was quieter. We still slept well in both instances.

Going from USA i was disappointed…We were 6 people and sofa bed didnt open first night my MIL had to sleep on my bed. Bunk beds were not very comfortable. Shower was clogged I informed them first day … no one came to fix it … last day it flooded in to the whole bathroom and all I got was extra towels. It was gross to use the bathroom with flooded floor. Location was amazing
