Usch, hit vill jag aldrig igen. Personalen var det verkligen inget fel på tvärtom super trevliga allihopa. Men städningen var under all kritik. Toan hade papper kvar i botten och sängen hade blodfläckar hock långa svarta hårstrån samt smulor i sig. Väldigt lyhört man hör allt som händer i hotellet och grannarna som har tv på.helt ok frukost fanns inte jättemycket men endå ett bra utbud men inget extra.
