Hotellet ligger väldigt bra i stan - nära till allt. Servicen är mycket vänlig och hjälpsam. Rummet var ganska litet men bekvämt med bra sängar. Mycket trivsamt hotell.

Mysigt och personligt hotell
Bra och lugnt läge innanför murarna. Fint rum med sköna sängar och bra komfort. Trevlig uteplats att sitta på för relax eller frukost. Bra frukostutbid. Ett hotell att rekommendera!

Dejligt hotel
Lille hyggeligt hotel hvor man føler sig velkommen. Det ligger tilpas tæt på gaderne hvor alle restauranter og barer ligger, men også langt nok væk til at det er meget stille og roligt omkring hotellet.
Morgenbuffeten har et tilpas lille udvalg af hvad man kunne tænke sig. Pandekagerne var især meget lækre 😋

Skulle bare bruge det som start på Gotlandsleden og vi kom sent ind på færgen, men alt var på plads og det var nemt at komme ind med kode som var blevet sendt inden. Værelset var dejligt og morgenmad gave en god start på cykelferie, vi var lidt kede af vi ikke var der en dag mere.

Viehättävä ja hyvällä paikalla.
Meille sattui varmaan pienin huone, mutta hyvin yksi yö sujui.Tuuletin olisi hyvä kesällä, kun ilmastointia ei ole.

Extrasäng och varmt
Extrasängen var mycket obekväm. Bokat för 3 vuxna till ett relativt högt pris. Våning 4:a (direkt under tak) bör utrustas med AC då det var för varmt på rummet, trots två fläktar och öppna fönster.
Frukosten var mycket bra och personalen trevlig. Mycket fint hotell och fin miljö i övrigt.
