Poor Food, Lovely room

The Room was fine, all the activities for kids was great. But the evening menu was very poor. The beef filled have the size of the bun, the ketchup was selfinvented and tasted mostly like pure tomato pure, not kid friendly.. Just a poor experience dinning

Terrible breakfast

Nice Hotel. But as for all Scandic hotels in Sweden the breakfast is terrible. especially the bacon which doesn’t look or taste as bacon, the pancakes which should not be allowed to be called pancakes and the sausages are made from chicken which make me feel sick. Most other Swedish hotels serve a great breakfasts, but not Scandic.

Her bor du godt.

På tross av opp mot 30 varmegrader fikk vi et rom med levelig temperatur. Hotellet hadde i tillegg satt inn ekstra bordvifte, som gjorde god nytte. Oppholdet frister virkelig til gjentagelse.

Alle hund rom er opp mot veien, ingen aircon

Hadde hund med og da får en hund rom opp mot veien, ingen aircon så åpent vindu og vifter i døgndrift. Gammelt hotell men virker til en natt, ikke vert 2000 nok for familierom.

Bra personal men dålig standard

Stark avloppslukt i rummet vid ankomst. Vid kontroll av toalett så låg något slemmigt kvar i toastolen. Efter spolning fanns lukten ändå kvar. Spolade även syfonen i duschen men lukten fanns kvar. Meddelade receptionen och de sa att det kunde bero på att rummet stått tomt ett tag. Dåligt städat vid våningssängarna med kvarglömt kvitto och fläckar på ytorna. Fruktansvärt dålig ventilation och varmt på rummet. Vi var tvungna att sova med öppet fönster men det var heller inte lätt eftersom det var tung trafik och en massa lastbilar som backade och höll på på utsidan. Blev inte mycket sömn.
