Good stay
Ok stay for a couple nights. Comfy beds and spacious clean rooms. Indoor parking and generous breakfast options. The hotel had renovations in the restaurant during our stay but that was not a big inconvenience. Overall a good stay, nothing bad but nothing special either.

Nedslitt hotel
FÞrste hotelet pÄ vei inn til GÞteborg
Bygget er fra tidlig 70 tall
Noe nedslitt og en stor oppussing av inngang parti og lobby pÄ gang.
Vi bodde i syvende etasje.
Det fÞrste vi ser nÄr vi kommer ut sv heisen er en lang gang,som et sykehus.
Rommet er romslig men bĂŠrer preg av nedslitt og utdatert.
Noen stenger rundt ene veggen og grĂžnn rar tapet er nedtur.
Tv med ulike nordiske kanaler.
Sengen var ok.
Badet virker ok,men dÄrlig trykk pÄ vannet. Ellers ok.

Rommene ser gamle og slitne ut og kvaliteten pÄ ting (mÞbler, baderom osv) er ikke noe Ä skryte av. Skuffende hvis man ser pÄ prisen.

Blir aldri samme hotell igjen.
