Not handikapanpassad but still Ok
Comfortable bed and good breakfast.
My room was not handikapanpassad but it was OK. It had a good noise reduction... So no problems to sleep.
Personal was really friendly and helpful.
I will recommend it.

Mycket trivsam vistelse. Gammal byggnad så rummen hade höga fönster, högt i tak. Frukosten var en upplevelse. Stort utbud och smakfullt serverat.
Trevligt bemötande från all personal.
Återvänder gärna till denna lilla pärla till hotell.

Mycket bra! Enda minuset var att kaffe till frukosten var ljummet och inte så gott.

Usch, hit vill jag aldrig igen. Personalen var det verkligen inget fel på tvärtom super trevliga allihopa. Men städningen var under all kritik. Toan hade papper kvar i botten och sängen hade blodfläckar hock långa svarta hårstrån samt smulor i sig. Väldigt lyhört man hör allt som händer i hotellet och grannarna som har tv på.helt ok frukost fanns inte jättemycket men endå ett bra utbud men inget extra.

Trevlig personal, hotellet låg bra till 5 minuter till torget. Vi hade bastu på rummet, så kvällen avslutades med bastu. Frukosten var bra fanns ett bra utbud av mat.

Litet mysigt hotell men Ingen städning på rummet på 4 nätters vistelse, drar ner uppfattningen om hotellet.
