Vi hade en fantastisk vistelse som familj med två små barn. Hotellet var mycket barnvänligt, personalen var hjälpsam och trevlig, och rummet var både rent och bekvämt. Perfekt läge och allt fungerade smidigt under hela vistelsen. Vi är supernöjda och kommer gärna tillbaka!

Rummet var okej, ingen utsikt mer än en bakgård med container nästan precis utanför fönstret. Personalen tipsade om pizzeria Lovis som höll till nere på caféet på området men när vi kom dit, hungriga efter en dag på ALV så kunde den arbetande personalen där inte servera varken pizza eller toast utan vi fick nöja oss med pommes och kokt korv.

Ruhiges Hotel, welches schon etwas älter ist, sodass man leider auch vieles von den anderen Zimmern mitbekommt. Eine Familie mit 2 Kindern war im 1. Stock untergebracht. Nicht direkt über uns, aber man konnte das herum rennen und das Geschrei sehr laut bei uns im Zimmer hören

OK hotell men dålig frukost.

Frukosten var under all kritik. Endast två sorters bröd där det ena var stenhårt och torrt. De "löskokta" äggen var gröna inuti. Hälften av baconen var stenhårda. Ingen apelsinjuice eller fruktyoghurt. Personalen la tillbaka den mat som hamnat på bordet i serveringsskålarna.

Ett bra hotell och trevligt personal. Många barn som skrek i frukostmatsalen så ett bra tips är att äta ute på uteserveringen så att man får lite lugn och ro. Frukosten i sig var bra och det fanns mycket att välja på. Hotellet ligger bra till.
