Recommended for cyclists

My wife and I enjoyed our stay. We travel with our bicycles and very much appreciated that we could store our bicycles in the hotel in the basement. The hotel is nicely located directly at the river and the city center is close by. There is free coffee at all times and the breakfast was appropriate. We can recommend the hotel for people traveling by bicycle.

Rent och fräscht. Centralt med bra pris och frukost som ingår i priset. Relativt låg avgift för avbokningsskydd. Gott om parkering i närheten av hotellet.

8/10 Very good

Trevlig personal, hjälpvänlig. Jättebra frukost och allmänt mysigt hotell med fina rum. Det som drar ner från en 5 är att badrummet höll en enklare standard. Åker gärna tillbaka till hotellet nästa gång

Kändes som ett vandrarhem, trista rum, otroligt lågbudgetfrukost med hög bullernivå skrapande stolar på det smutsiga klinkergolvet och frukosten uppdukad på receptionsdisken… trevlig personal men kommer inte boka detta hotell igen.

Jakob, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Hotellet var bra, rätt litet och jag tycker inte riktigt att det matchar bilderna på webben. Rummen var fräscha men man kan inte låsa dörrarna, frukosten var ingen höjdare väldigt liten frukost och väldigt litet i lobbyn allmänt! Personalen var trevliga så det är ett plus. Hotellet var ett okej hotell och funkar att stannar där en natt, men troligtvis inget jag tar igen
