Das Hotel ist schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber immer noch ok, weil sauber und gut geführt.
Wir hatten eine "Suite" mit zwei Ebenen, die aber nur für Reisende, die sehr gut zu Fuß sind (enge Treppe zum Schlafraum), Sinn macht.
Das Badezimmer ist wg. der Größe immer nur für eine Person geeignet, also ist sequentielles Benutzen angesagt.
Matratzen sind ok, die Kopfkissen katastrophal durchgelegen und riechen z.T. wie die ungepflegte Kopfhaut alter Männer.
Die Tiefgarage ist ok, aber für heutige Autos zu eng.
Die Lage ist gut, nur wenige Minuten zu Fuß in die Stadt.
Das angeschlossene Lokal ist gut für einen Absacker, aber nicht mehr.

Trevligt hotell med pooler
Mycket trevligt hotell med både utomhus o inomhus pool. Rymliga rum med uteplats. Bra parkering. Tyvärr lite dålig kudde o badrummet kunde behövas uppdateras. Väldigt nära det fina slottet som verkligen är värt ett besök.

Das Hotel ist sichtbar in die Jahre gekommen. Die Zimmer Ausstattung und die Materialien entsprechen weitgehend nicht mehr dem heutigen Geschmack. Das gilt auch für die Bäder. Duschen in der Badewanne ist nicht sehr bequem und in diesem Fall auch gefährlich, weil man leicht ausrutscht. Der Umweltgedanke wird in erster Linie zum Wohle des Hotels gedacht. Während die Zimmerreinigung nur noch jeden zweiten Tag erfolgt aus Umweltgründen hat man ein riesiges Flachdach mit Kies ohne Begrünung. Frühstück mit 24 € einfach zu teuer.
