The host/receptionist was amazing! The hotel is dated but rooms were clean, big spacious bathroom.
Room did not have a window that opened to outside it opened onto corridor.
No kettle tea or coffe as promised.
Room was super hot with no air con or fan.
Had to sleep covered in a wet towel to survive heat.
No hot food at breakfast.

Het hotel lag in een verbouwing. Het restaurant en de bar waren gesloten. Hier kon ik vooraf helaas niets over lezen.
De kamers waren prima.

Hyggelig by
Lidt kaotisk indtjekning. Morgenmad glimrende. Hotellet meget gammelt men fu gerer fint. Byen er hyggelig
Ik vond het enorm jammer dat bij het inchecken niemand aanwezig was, we moesten ons kamer maar zelf zoeken , de sleutel lag op de balie in een envelop , dit was mijn eerste maar ook laatste bezoek, het hotel was ondermaats

Zeer tevreden
Ik verblijf al drie jaar bijna wekelijks in dit hotel wegens mijn werk. Ben uitermate tevreden over de kwaliteit: gemakkelijk incheck, altijd schone kamers en lekker ontbijt! De kwaliteit is zeer goed en constant! Helaas het uiterlijke van het hotel doet te kort aan de kwaliteit wat het te bieden heeft!
Dommage qu'il n'y ait pas quelq'un a l'accueil au moins pour la journée , il y avait seulement une personne le matin pour les départs .
Hôtel très propre et le personnel très professionnel, aimable et gentil
Ik vond dit een slecht hotel vensterbanken kapot gaten in de muur plinten in de gang kapot 3 soorten kit in de badkamer alleen om een bad af te dichten tijdens het ontbijt 17 e eeuws muziek nee nooit meer

Centralt läge nära torget med många restauranger, men ingen reception efter 21:00 om du kommer sent. Lite enkla rum och gammaldags.
