Room was much smaller than we thought it would be. Bar staff were great but serving staff were insouciant. Had to call for room service at 330pm because our room had not been serviced. Our 3rd stay here, so we lnow the Olsen well. Just not up to par this time.

Run down, 3 star service, restaurant breakfast very ordinary but I will give them full marks on excellent coffee. It’s a great central location but it’s expensive for what you get. The pool was grubby and very little atmosphere and the gym was let go and dirty, disorganised and no water in the gym the whole time.
