this is essentially a best western, no real amenities, breakfast was better than we thought it would be, room has limited space, bathroom is very dated. somewhat off the more popular area of town
Sliten byggnad, lite äckligt toaletten med suboptimalt städning. Vaknade mitt i natten med någon som ropade ”spy! spy!” på gatan bredvid (d.v.s dålig ljudisolering). Bra läget mitt i stan (fast Jönköping inte är kanske en megalopolis) och ganska bra frukost. Inte värt pengarna i allmänt. Skulle rekommendera att sluta med ”boka frukost dagen innan” systemet, det är bara jobbigt och stressig.
I stay here twice a year and really enjoy the morning buffet and the easy parking when doing events at the Convention Center in town!
The location is central and the ease of getting in and out is always a must for me.
The hotel is very central to the town. The parking is about 2 mins walk away, which does not help if you have heavy bags.
There is a small gym and sauna which was ok.
Staff were very friendly and breakfast was great.
