This place was unique and the property and building is just amazing. The old vibes and goth grooves had me feeling like i was in a movie. Place is amazing.

Small rooms, otherwise ok hotel
Comfortable beds, clean sheets and towels
Free parking close by
Breakfast was ok
Really small room, difficult to open suitcase or move around in the room
Only one girl working during breakfast so it must have been very stressful for her
Comfortable room in a sprawling hotel, often empty while I was there - thought there were enough people for a party on Saturday night. Huge variety of places to sit and hang out, the games room and free food for evening snacks were highlights.
This is a solid two star facility. If all you require is a cheap clean spacious room for a night, it'll do the trick. If you want service, minimal decor, amenities - don't go there. Didn't see any stuff. You pick up/leave the room key on the counter of the front desk.
The room was not very clean and the skirting board had falling off the wall.
Shower room floor was not clean; I had to do that before I could take a shower.

Fint rum, enkel incheckning. Toppen att kunna ta sig en kvällsmacka. Frukosten var helt OK. Sist men inte minst, att man hade gratis parkering o motorvärmare. Rekommenderar!
Perfekt att hunden var välkommen. Helt ok rum och boende till det billiga priset. En äldre byggnad men rummet funkade bra (kalldrag från fönster) och badrummet även så, trots avloppslukt där.
Frukosten spartansk och lite tråkig men en macka och kaffe så var magen nöjd. Fint att promenera kring kyrkan.

Väldigt lugnt boende under en helg i början av november. Bra budget val. Stort plus för bastun och kvällsfikan som ingick i priset. Kul med ett spelrum, men det skulle behöva rustas upp. Familjerummet var stort och tyst. Lite nergånget inredning, men som sagt bra budgetval.

Rummet var bra och personalen trevlig men omklädningsrummet till bastun skulle behövas städas bättre.

Lite slitet och gammalt men det dög att sova där.
Frulosten var okej men inte mer

Disliked: Cleanliness
En uppfräschning av badrummet skulle vara aktuellt. Saknade mörkläggningsgardiner på rummet.
Rummet var rent och fräscht, sängen var mjuk & skön, och frukosten var bra. Är mycket nöjd med vistelsen

Kaikki toimi, vaikka saavuimme iltamyöhään. Erityiskiitokset, että iltapalaa oli tarjolla. Hyvä ja kattava aamiainen.

Enklare hotell med bra service
Enklare hotell. Bra städning. Frukosten innehöll det viktigaste man kan önska. Personalen var mycket lyhörd när vi ville byta rum. Vi var också mycket nöjda med rummet vi bytte till.
