The staff showed great care from arrival to departure, feeling like i was at home. The rooms were very clean (i really loved that!), breakfast and dinner buffets were good.

The hotel included both breakfast and dinner and there was a lot of choice, amazing. Even fika, a late afternoon dessert with coffee, is included as part of the service. This allows a very convenient and cute option.

the windows in my room did not open. also parking was a bit complicated because the garage is shared by offices clinics the grocery store and the hotel. i understand i should have made sure i understood the parking situation before arrival.

the hotel room was very good. i appreciated the accessories, like the microwave, fridge, and stove (very useful for a longer stay). i found it quiet and conveniently close to the city center. breakfast and dinner were delicious, and i really enjoyed the variety.

i noticed a bit of water came out of the shower unit. this meant the floor towel got wet rather quickly.
