Worst night I’ve ever had at a hotel. My room was on the 6th floor and was super small. It could barley fit a queen size bed. The main problem was that there was no air condition in the room and they did not have an extra fan for me so it was a sleepless night. I would not recommend this hotel at all. The staff just suggested to open the window which was not safe at all because a big window with no safety strap is not okay. I had the window open but the noise from the street and the warmth made it impossible to sleep.
God beliggenhet på hotellet. Vanskelig med parkering da parkeringshus i nærheten var stengt. Dårlig utsikt fra rommet. Ellers grei frokost og hyggelig betjening. Ingen kjøleskap på rommet.
