Ok stay, why no gym or mini fridge in room

Hotel is good, very good breakfast. Room was ok. My only disappointments : no mini fridge to cool something and no gym! I think for a small town like this they should make parking free

Great place, will stay here more often

If you take the new rooms, they are nice and compact. The TV screen is a bit out kf proportion, but I actually enjoyed the size more and more watching from bed. Food in the restaurant is good, the chef has been given a lot of freedom, this shows in a good way. Friendly people and the know how to make a good mocktail. Take the sauna. Good and relaxing place to chill with a alcohol free Heineken.

Viihtyisää asumista lähellä kaupungin keskustaa

Vastaremontoitu huone oli kauniisti valaistu ja mukava. Sängyt eivät olleet (onneksi) upottavan pehmeät, toisin kuin joissain hotelleissa. Huone oli siisti.

Tyylikäs hotelli järven rannassa lähellä keskustaa. Remontti tulossa vuoden lopussa. Hyvä perinteinen aamupala.

Matkalla pyörätuolin kanssa

Esteetön huone oli siisti ja apuvälineillä hyvin saavutettavissa. Huoneiden äänieristys on huono, muiden huoneiden äänet kuuluivat häiritsevästi seinien läpi. Muuten hotelliviikonloppu oli oikein onnistunut. Henkilökunta oli ystävällistä ja aamupala hyvin runsas. Hotelli on pian menossa remonttiin, joten äänieristys tulee luultavasti remontin myötä parantumaan huomattavasti.

Elämyksellinen kokemus teatteri-illan jälkeen. Uskomattoman upea ja lämmin elokuun lopun ilta huipentui terassilla järven rannalla nautittuun ihanaan illalliseen. Kaikki oli kohdillaan!

Miellyttävä hotelli

Huone oli oikein siisti, simppeli sisustus on helpompi pitää puhtaanakin. Ei kokolattiamattoa. Viihtyisä huone, kaunis näköala. Muutenkin hotelli oli viihtyisä ja palvelut toimivat hyvin. Sijainti erittäin hyvä, jos kulkee junalla tai autolla.

Nukutun yön jälkeen

Sänky oli huono ja se nitisi ja natisi ja oli muhkurainen. Tyyny oli huono, eikä tukenut niskaa/hartioita. Käytävillä hirveää metakkaa yöllä (klo 2.07) Aamiainen oli hyvä, toki tila oli melko hämyisä.
