Groningen hotellia

Plussat: almost everything perfect - very nice!

Miinukset: they don‘t have curtains in the rooms - only a wooden blind, but this doesn’t darken the room properly.

Plussat: the view on Martini tower, the location at the edge of the city centre, complimentary minibar.

Miinukset: allocation of the room

Plussat: Perfect quiet location downtown and a gorgeous breakfast

Plussat: I chose not to have breakfast as I was invited for a breakfast meeting elsewhere.

Miinukset: I liked everything!

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Service. No A/C Restaurant was closed

Plussat: Staying in a historical building, but with ease of access and fantastic amenities. Great restaurants for breakfast, casual and formal dining.

Plussat: Excellent hotel. Perfect blend of old architecture and modern design. Clean and very reasonable food and bar prices.

Plussat: Located in the most historic part of town, the location is unbeatable! Friendly staff and good service

Plussat: Fabulous location, beautiful room and extremely friendly and helpful staff

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Well appointed comfortable bedroom, free minibar. Food was amazing

Miinukset: Shower blocked and flooded the bathroom. Window shutters decorative but needed curtains as well to shut out the light! Not sure about the tight wooden spiral stair base as a fire escape...

Plussat: Breakfast freshly cooked and generous. Bedroom spacious and (at front) a nice view.

Miinukset: No iron in bedroom that we could see. Pillows too bulky. Bed actually two small single beds. Hotel could not facilitate even a slightly late time for checking out of room (30-60 minutes extra sought)

Plussat: The beds were comfortable, great shower.woonderful location.

Miinukset: Steep stairs,no shower curtain, no air vent in WC,mini bar not cold

Plussat: Incredible staff. Great location. Just amazing.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: We have been to this hotel before and the first time (February) the room we were given was perfect. Wide, great sight and luminous. This second time however, the room we were given was half the size the first one. This second time we got room no. 27C, if I recall correctly. It was literally squeezed between buildings and overlooking a patio, meaning there was barely natural light and we were just in front of the kitchen of another establishment. The smell of the food and the loud music from the restaurant was noticeable both nights until late at night. Moreover, the room was really small for both of us. I it surprising how paying exactly the same amount of money you can get such different rooms. Moreover, my mother was kicked out from the room by the cleaning lady, who threatened my mum not cleaning our room if she wouldn´t leave it now. She was extremely rude and made my mother rush out from the shower, something I still can´t understand. However, the location is perfect and the people working at the reception were very nice, professional and approachable. Unfortunately, this second time I don´t think the room was worth the money we paid for.

Plussat: Really nice apartment with modern facilities. Great location within 10-15 minutes walking distance of everything in the city center and the train/bus station.. Great views. Friendly staff. Lots of bars and restaurants close by.

Miinukset: Stairs are very steep, but that's typical of Dutch buildings. Contact the property in advance if you have have accessibility requirements. The junction is quite busy from early in the morning, earplugs are provided and would be necessary for light sleepers if you sleep with the windows open. No air-conditioning in the room and it was the middle of a heatwave. Keeping the shutters closed during the day was required.

Plussat: Great tastefully decorated rooms. Respectful and very responsive staff.

Miinukset: In some of their houses, there are steep and somewhat slippery carpeted stairs. Typical for old Dutch houses. So be aware if you not surefooted.

Plussat: Lovely room lovely staff and great location

Plussat: Great location, great facilities. Plenty of room. Nicely decorated

Miinukset: Nothing. It was all great. The only thing is the stairs to the apartment were are very steep. We didn't mind it but it might be a problem for some people.

Plussat: Excellent location, friendly and helpful staff.

Plussat: Spacious and clean room , window view. Modern building in historical center.

Plussat: the rooms are spacious and nicely decorated. the bathroom has a great design with the toilet behind a door on one side and the walk-in shower on the other side. buffet breakfast is well equipped with eggs and omelet made to order. Free parking!

Miinukset: there is nothing to complain about. the food in the restaurant Green is ok but a bit old-fashioned. must admit that we are bit spoiled when it comes to dining out though ;-)

Plussat: Great opción, few meter from a park and ride to the city center

Miinukset: Some noises at night

Plussat: Uusi siisti hotelli hyvin sijoittuneena matkani varrella.

Plussat: Very wide and clean rooms, nicely decorated, staff very friendly and polite.

Plussat: Very clean and silent room

Miinukset: 10 to 15 minutes drive into citycenter of groningen

Plussat: Everything was on high level

Miinukset: Palvelu ravintolassa hieman hidasta

Plussat: Hotel was lovely friendly staff.. very comfortable rooms couldnt fault it

Miinukset: Bar staff were a little slow at serving but it wouldnt stop me going back

Plussat: beautiful hotel with lovely staff and the food was very good quality, great portion size and very good value for money. the bed was very comfortable

Miinukset: the air conditioning was quite noisy but it didn't stop me having the best sleep in a long time

Plussat: Room is nice and big.

Miinukset: no

Plussat: This is hotel design and management of the highest level.

Miinukset: That we didn't have the time to stay for a month.

Plussat: check in and check out went smoothly, room was good and clean. personel was friendly

Miinukset: all was fine, no complaints. the room we had had an open shower, maybe not for everybody so pay attention which room you book.

Plussat: It was convenient for us to park our bikes. The room was clean and neat. The view from our room was amazing.

Miinukset: Still using plastic cups in the bathroom.

Plussat: The property’s location is fantastic, lots of cafes and Restaurants around the corner and not far from the main square. Check in was simple,the staff are all very friendly. Rooms was big and clean, yes it’s all a little dated but it’s a 3 star and it’s great value for money. Our rooms were on the 3 rd and 4th floor and we got some really nice views of Groningen. Car garage is a big bonus if you’re traveling with bikes, like us. The gym is well equipped. Would definitely return!

Miinukset: Hardly any staff at reception during our checkout (6am) and we had to wait for 10-15 minutes to check out and pay, which was a bit of a hold up due to needing to catch a ferry. Water pressure was terrible. Other than that, nothing that we didn’t like.

Plussat: Great location, clean rooms. Coffee available 24/7.

Miinukset: Overall overpriced. Parking hall was a piece of art, managed to find a good spot still. Lots of improvement could be reached by investing thought in the breakfast.

Plussat: Keskeinen sijainti kaupungin ytimessä. mutta rauhallinen kadun puoli kirkon suuntaan. Aamiaistarjonta runsas ja ravitseva.

Miinukset: Autotallista hotellin sijainti huomioon ottaen lisämaksu ok, mutta talli melkoisen pieni loukku jos siellä on enemmän ajoneuvoja.

Plussat: Rooms, bathrooms, windows, view.

Plussat: Everything

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: Great location. spacious and comfortable rooms. Free coffee and tee for everyone in the lobby.

Miinukset: There was a bit stale smell in the room.

Plussat: Hyvä aamiainen, ystävällinen palvelu. Rauhallinen sijainti, mutta kuitenkin lähellä keskustaa.

Miinukset: Huoneessa ei ollut jääkaappia. Äänieristys heikohko.

Plussat: Groningen shopping

Miinukset: Easy to drive to and leave. Ideal location for centre. Nice bars nearby

Plussat: The service at the hotel was second to none! Everyone was brilliant.

Miinukset: No air conditioning but only really noticed because it was so hot. The receptionist gave us her last fan which was so helpful and kind.

Plussat: Clean good location

Miinukset: Would be better if tax’s were included in the price when booking. Car park layout should be better as we were boxed in

Plussat: Unlike Amsterdam, the people actually spoke Dutch with me. That made me feel good.

Plussat: The view from the 7th floor over the city was nice

Miinukset: I had booked a 2 persons room for 1 persons use but got a 1 person room. The rooms are very noise, you can hear everything happening on the hallway and the room next to you.

Plussat: No big surprise with this Hôtel. A good price/quality ratios for NL, confortable rooms with simplist design. I recommand for business trip.

Miinukset: I had to wait 20min for re-planishment breakfast buffet and actually add no time for. It was also a bit cold because of a very large wndow without double glass.

Plussat: My room on the top floor was quiet and had a nice view. Breakfast was very good. Free wireless internet.

Miinukset: Shower drain was blocked.

Plussat: Good rooms.

Miinukset: Windows are not soundproof, so the sound of traffic can be heard at night.

Plussat: free tea/coffee service, great buffet breakfast

Plussat: Ystävällinen palvelu: 1) pyysin vettä aamiaispöytään ja sen jälkeen sitä oli joka aamu; 2) vastaanottovirkailija tuli kysymään puuttuvasta katuosoitteesta postikortissa: asia oli ok, mutta huolenpito oli miellyttävää. 3) saimme aamiaiseväät junamatkalle, koska lähdimme ennen aamiaista.

Miinukset: Huoneen ikkunat olivat likaiset ja kokolattiamatto on mielestäni epämiellyttävä; toisaalta ne ovat käytössä Euroopassa.

Plussat: Hotelli on hyvällä paikalla, lyhyen kävelymatkan päässä keskustasta

Miinukset: Huoneessa ei ollu parisänkyä

Plussat: Hotelli oli sopivasti lähellä kaupungin keskustaa, mutta kuitenkin rauhallisella paikaalla, lyhyt matka kaupungille. Henkilökunta oli kohteliasta.

Plussat: it was convenient to concert venue

Miinukset:

Plussat:

Miinukset: I did not like the atmosphere of the hotel. The room was very warm, there was no airconditioning and the windows hardly opened. The curtains were too short, so in the morning the room was much too bright to allow a good bedrest. Overall the building the hotel is situated in looks daunting. I was discomforted during my stay and would not go back to this hotel again.

Plussat: Central location.

Miinukset: Lack of safety deposit box in room.Lack of drink making facilities in room.Lack of soap rack in shower.

Plussat: more atmosfere, music and drink in the bar.

Miinukset:

Plussat: The room was perfect! A new bathroom which was sooo much better then expecting! Once in Groningen we will be back.

Plussat: Sijainti.

Miinukset: Ilmastointi puuttui.

Plussat: Tyylikkäästi sisustettu, persoonallinen hotelli aivan keskustorin laidalla yli satavuotiaassa rakennuksessa. Huone oli erittäin hiljainen vaikka keskustorilla oli vierailumme aikana tivoli ja paljon meteliä. Sisustuksessa paljon mielenkiintoisia yksityiskohtia ja upea portaikko sekä koristeltu katto.

Miinukset: Hotellissa ei ole omaa parkkihallia tai -paikkoja, joten auto piti jättää kauemmas maksulliseen parkkihalliin. Aamiainen aika yksipuolinen.

Plussat: Good location.Comfortable beds

Miinukset: Toilet in one of the rooms was not clean. When we told the front desk the next morning, she was not helpful. She said, she would have changed our room, but this was the first time we had used the toilet and we were ready for bed. We only wanted her to know so that the cleaners could be more vigilant.

Plussat: The bathroom was big and neat, clean. The hotel itself was clean and cozy.

Miinukset: The room was TINY, and warm.. Most sockets didn't work..

Miinukset: No air con in rooms only small fans!

Plussat: The room was super big, as well as the bathroom.

Miinukset: Too warm. The window could not be open entirely.

Plussat: Location!

Miinukset: Be prepared to stay in a room close to hell if you stay on the second floor during a heatwave. We have booked the hotel in February. When we asked if we could get another due to the heat in the room with no aircon, we were informed that the Hotel could not fit air-conditioners in the rooms due to regulations. A pity that the Hotel owners did not invest in portable air conditioners as we had in other hotels with similar historical status.

Plussat: We had a magical stay at de Doelen. At check-in, we were told that we were being given a room upgrade. I am always sceptical of such claims, but lo and behold - the room was absolutely enormous with a lovely sitting area and the biggest bed I have ever seen, and the bathroom had a large bath and its very own sauna! Needless to say we were delighted. No view to speak of from the windows and little natural light, but that also meant no noise from the square at night - worked for us; it was quiet and we had a wonderful night's sleep. Our room had a door which opened onto a little courtyard. There was nothing there but it was being painted during our visit. It could become a wonderful addition to the room with some plants, who knows. The breakfast was excellent. It had everything we could have possibly asked for, including freshly pressed orange juice. Everything was fresh and the buffet was refilled constantly. We loved the decor as well. Most importantly, all the staff were warm and friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed. It is so rare to find a classic hotel of this quality that is not pompous. Well done.. We would love stay here again on a longer visit to Groningen.

Miinukset: more than 40 °C - no aircondition

Plussat: breakfast: good fresh fruit, though basic coffee, same stuff everyday good choice of teas for free at the ground floor

Miinukset: -

Plussat: The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was good and only 10 minutes walk to the university.

Plussat: Staffs were very kind.

Miinukset: No refrigerator in the room

Plussat: Extremely welcoming & helpful staff made the stay feel very relaxed and comfortable. Very well located for both train station and town centre.

Miinukset: Hissi oli rikki eivätkä saaneet kahdessa päivässä kuntoon. Myös huoneen lukko oli rikki ja sen sentään korjasivat.

Plussat: Mutkaton netin käyttö.

Miinukset: Kokolattiamatto huoneessa

Plussat: Hotellin sijainti keskustassa ja kanaalin reunalla oli erinomainen, kuten myös huoneemme sijainti 5. kerroksessa. Saimme istua välillä suurella kattoterassilla ja ottaa vaikka kahvit automaatista (kuului samaan hintaan).

Miinukset: Ei ollut mitään sellaista mistä emme pitäneet. Yövyimme 3 yötä.

Plussat: Henkilökunta oli todella avuliasta ja ystävällistä. Aamiainen oli monipuolinen ja herkullinen.

Miinukset: Hotellihuoneen mukit olivat erikseen muoviin pakattuja muovimukeja. Olisi ympäristölle ystävällisempää vaihtaa mukit laseihin.

Plussat: Hyvä sijainti, hiljainen, kahviautomaatit, wlan...

Plussat: Nice new bathrooms with tubs. Nice buffet breakfast with hot and cold entrees. Good, friendly service. Staff made suggestion to help us save money on parking.

Miinukset:

Plussat: Good breakfast

Miinukset: Only 2 English speaking channels (BBC1/BBC2) on the TV.

Plussat: The room was really clean and well organized. The staff was super helpful, even when they were a bit busy.

Miinukset: I can't even say, my expectations where definitely met.

Plussat: Comfy bed and excellent breakfast

Miinukset: Extraction in bathroom didn’t work

Plussat: The location was superb. Just a short walk to the centre of the town where you’ll find lovely cafes and restaurants. Lots of high street shops as well. It was ideal for going to the Moto GP. A 20 minute walk to the train station or a quick 5 minute taxi ride. A taxi from the station to the hotel will cost about €10 and there’s no problem getting a taxi. Also the staff at the hotel were really friendly and very accommodating. I will most definitely book again for next years Moto GP.

Miinukset: There is a type of bar/cafe located in the hotel but it isn’t great. You would be much better off heading to the bars cafes and restaurants in the town centre instead.

Plussat: Breakfast was super!

Miinukset: View

Plussat: I liked modern rooms, comfortable beds

Miinukset: first floor when you have to put all curtains to hve privacy

Plussat: The design and shared spaces are nice to hangout. The gym is good and the bath is amazing!

Miinukset: The location is not good compare to the city center. The staff weren't always helpful and room cards are not working often.

Plussat: it was clean and comfortable

Miinukset: expensive

Plussat: Modern Hotel with clean rooms. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Reception, housekeeping, kitchen - great hosts, all of them.

Miinukset: n/a

Plussat: Very helpful nice reception

Plussat: Excellent breakfast. Quiet location but not far from centre. Good public transport links.

Miinukset: Not much to improve. Maybe tell folks on booking site you can get the 10 bus to a stop 5 mins away.

Miinukset: Poor WiFi in room. Limited lighting in Bathroom

Miinukset: Duvet was stained with blood and we saw it the next morning

Miinukset: En pitänyt siitä, että huone oli niin pieni. Matkalaukulle ei riittänyt kunnolla tilaa.

Plussat: Sängyt, suihku, aamupala

Miinukset: Äänieristeet

Plussat: The bathroom new and clean.Smart way they utilized the room size. Doors opening and closing on their own.

Miinukset: The rugs due to the color never seemed clean. When we arrived at reception area it smelled of food. More ventilation in kitchen, might help.

Plussat: The service, the staff.

Miinukset: Too expensive for breakfast

Plussat: Bed

Miinukset: Nothing

Miinukset: Across the highway and therefore very noisy if you don’t ask for a room in the back

Plussat: The staff

Miinukset: Just the location for the city centre. Taxi’s expensive.

Plussat: Sijainti suht hyvä, rautatieasemalle n. 17min. kävelymatka, ja keskusta heti siinä vieressä.

Miinukset: Keittiö meni lauantaina kiinni klo 21. Sunnuntaina baarin palvelut alkoivat vasta klo 17.

Plussat: Reception and the all inc. minibar is nice

Miinukset: I had a suit room so everything was great. Breakfast could be a bit better with more options.

Miinukset: Respan nuori kaveri ei ollut asiakas palvelija

Plussat: Room spacious, comfortable and well-equipped

Miinukset: Restaurant was too busy inn evening so had to eat elsewhere. Hotel difficult to find even with Satnav. Parking location and access not immediately obvious.

Plussat: Henkilökunta oli ystävällistä

Miinukset: Huone ja hotellin matala siipi haisi hieman tunkkaiselle. Huoneessa haisi viemäri. Ilmanvaihto oli huono (vain poisto jota ei oltu puhdostettu). Hotelli on oikeasti kahden-kolmen tähden hotelli

Plussat: The breakfast and the room service meal were very good

Miinukset: My room looked out onto a balcony that linked to a stairwell so I had to keep the curtains closed all the time. No iron and ironing board (I bought my shirts in the suitcase not ironed).

Plussat: Nice place for a short stay. Super friendly staff

Plussat: Very clean. Friendly staff though sometimes not at the front desk with no way to let them know you were there. The location was also great, I was attending a workshop at the University and it was super convenient. Good wireless. Bedding was nice. Room was very basic.

Miinukset: There were no comfortable places to sit in the lounge area. No kitchen, or even a sink for filling a water bottle or eating some food you brought in yourself. There were tables with cube chairs (not exactly comfy). I was there for four nights, and they gave me a fresh towel every day, which felt excessive. No place in the room to set down a suitcase or backpack other than the other bed of the bunkbeds. It was nice to have lights next to the beds, but the bulbs were a super blue LED which is generally pretty unpleasant to read by, or even watch TV.

Plussat: Helpful staff and very convenient location. Rooms are clean and you can get your own kettle.

Miinukset: Rooms poorly furnished. A bit noisy outside.

Plussat: Staff went above and beyond on all my requests

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The staff was great, friendly and welcoming

Miinukset: Lighting of the room was awful. The room decor us dated.

Plussat: The staff was incredibly friendly, quite impressive.

Plussat: It was very quiet, very clean, and had super dark curtains so no light at all came in during the night/evening/early morning.

Plussat: Location, staff and availability

Miinukset: The beds were not comfortable

Plussat: Not too busy at breakfast

Miinukset: Tv only worked on 1 channel. There's no way to change it manually. You have to rent a remote control for 10 euros..

Plussat: The stuff were very kind and extremely helpful!! I arrived earlier than the check-in time and they kindly stored my baggage. Also the room was very clean and they gathered the trash every day!

Miinukset: The bathroom was extremely small and looked nothing like the picture. The shower curtain was a bit worn out and one of the towels had brown marks on it. Also, the food in the breakfast area was totally exposed (the yogurt, marmalades, fruits etc) and flies were lying on them so even if I had paid for that I didn't eat it. I addressed the problem to the reception so I hope they take care of it in the future. Generally it was not good value for money. You can find the same things in a cheaper hostel or pay slightly more to get a hotel room.

Plussat: Location perfect. Ensuite bathroom very handy

Plussat: The staff was terrific. The place is a bit out of the way, but there is decent bus service into Groningen (and free shuttles for part of the weekend). A big plus for me was the bike garage...not locked, but very safe.

Miinukset: The room was a bit small for all the stuff jammed in there.

Plussat: The comfort of the room. I choose a Family room. The beds were especially comfort. The room really spacious. The cleanliness also was really appreciated. I would rather give the hotel more then 3 and a half stars. The staff was really kind and ready to help. Free parking in the hotel area. A beautiful lake near the hotel.

Miinukset: I would have appreciated if in the room was a refrigerator. During the summer you really need it. For me nothing else to dislike.

Plussat: The view from 6th floor very nice. The roo was small but practical. Very clean. The bathroom was very good.

Miinukset: The double bed consisted of 2 joint single beds, unpleasant! The air-conditioning was quite loud and difficult to use. The window did not open.

Plussat: The location is beautiful, very good for children as well, with a big lake and many facilities, clean and safe. The hotel itself is a nice building with beautiful architecture. The view is very nice and the room was huge. Executive room. The staff was very friendly and responsive to my requests.

Miinukset: Everything was good, I have no complaints about our stay there.

Plussat: Aamiainen oli ok, puuro puuttui. Hotellin ympäristö oli kaunista ja ulkoilu mahdollisuudet hyvät. Keskusta lähellä.

Miinukset: Huone oli todella remontin tarpeessa. Mutta hyvää oli se että remontit huoneissa olivat alkaneet. Meillä ikävä kyllä huone oli vanhaa mallia ja vaatekaapissa valmiiksi jonkun likaiset vaatteet, tämä ei oikein vakuuttanut.

Plussat: Nice building. Nice interior, nice surrounding. There were ongoing renovations in the restaurant... That should make it even better.

Plussat: Room was very spacious (comfort double room with tub). Beds very comfortable. Lots of shelf and storage space in room. Staff all seemed efficient. Easy to get into Groningen by bus, €2.70 each way. Air conditioning great. VERY quiet in room, no internal or external noise, which is very unusual. Can walk around the lake from the hotel. We stayed 3 nights and were sad to leave, really enjoyed our stay.

Miinukset: Hotel not quite as grand as it looks in photo, what look like two wings are in fact commercial properties nothing to do with hotel. Not much storage space for toiletries in bathroom. A fridge would be very useful as it was 30+ and cool drinks need. Restaurant was being refurbished so only temporary restaurant facility which was very limited so didn’t eat there. Minor but sometimes slow to replenish things at breakfast. Safe wasn’t working when we arrived so reported it. Not dealt with that evening but quick response the next morning when we reported it again.

Plussat: Mukavasti vähän kaupungin ulkopuolella

Miinukset: Tylyhkö palvelu

Plussat: Cleanliness and staff friendliness

Miinukset: Rooms slightly too small and air con stopped on one night

Plussat: Great location, nice pool, wonderful terrace.

Miinukset: Breakfast to be improved. Should have more fruit variety, Dutch specialities like poffertjes etc

Plussat: Lovely clean, friendly and slightly unusual hotel. Its location is perfect if you are touring but a little harder if you are visiting Groningen.

Miinukset: Having cups in the room instead of paper cups would have been nice. TV didn't work and wasn't repaired even after we had reported the fault.

Miinukset: Swimming pool is closed afternoons until 19:00 for children’s lessons. So unavailable. This is not clear in advance.

Plussat: I like the design of the building construction.

Miinukset:

Plussat: The hotel was quite good value for money, the service was fairly good and the room and bed both comfortable.

Miinukset: It was located further from town than I would have liked. The room could definitely have had tea/coffee making facilities and I found the lack of this annoying. On my second day my room was not made up. Some used towels were removed but not replaced, used tea cups were not removed and the bed not made. There is no excuse for this. Also on the second day there was no hot water in the morning due to a fault, which was obviously a nuisance. At breakfast everything was removed in an instant exactly on the dot of closing, giving no time for 'seconds', even though there was still lots of food available. I can understand closing the dining room doors at this time but I thought it was extremely poor service to remove everything so quickly.

Plussat: Very kind personal

Plussat: Clean and very nice rooms

Miinukset: no transport to the city center

Plussat: Comfort, value for money, breakfast, bicycle hire. Free parking. Easy to find, short bicycle ride into the town.

Plussat: Henkilökunta oli erittäin ystävällistä ja avuliasta

Miinukset: Sisääntuloaluan värimaailma oli ankea

Plussat: Julkiset tilat tyylikkäät, 15 metrin uima-allas, 24 tuntia respa ja näppärä pääsy moottoritieltä suoraan hotellille. Aamupala tasokas.

Miinukset: Huone ei aivan yhtä funky kuin julkiset tilat, mutta aivan ok. Ei ole kävelymatkan päässä keskustasta (eikä lähellä ole mitään), eli ilman omaa autoa tämä on luultavasti huono diili.

Plussat: The promotional prices was good, also liked the swimming pool.

Miinukset: The room was not very clean and the window itself was completely dirty, with spiders and their web. Looked awful. Also missed the minibar.

Plussat: Friendly staff.

Miinukset: Carpeting throughout hotel stained and in need of replacement. Somewhat isolated. Need car or taxi to get around. Could use some drnk/snack machines.

Plussat: Modern, great architecture and location

Miinukset: One of the cupboards was dirty

Plussat: Facilities

Miinukset: More business related hotel: efficient but cold.

Plussat: nice location, quiet

Miinukset:

Plussat: Lovely, warm, friendly staff with a clean and comfortable room. Good menu

Miinukset: The only disappointing thing about this hotel is the lack of choice at breakfast

Plussat: Stayed at the hotel numerous times & will be back - work permitting

Miinukset: Friendly staff, food good, comfortable accommodation

Plussat: I am sorry ...did not try SPA...

Miinukset: It is a bit to hot inside...

Plussat: I liked the pool and sauna very much, perfekt holiday for us, just relaxed in hotel by bad weather that day.

Miinukset: I didn’t like that the hotel and spa are apart in different building, we needed to walk in the rain , through the gaden to get to the spa.

Plussat: Staff very friendly/ helpful. Food very good

Plussat: A good selection

Miinukset: Bacon & scrambled egg

Plussat: Clean and comfy

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: pleasant staff

Miinukset: Breakfast could be better, fe. fried eggs or ommelet, fresh fruits such as melon and cataloupe.

Plussat: Stayed at the hotel previously - will stay again all being well/ not fully booked. Staff friendly, food very good, very relaxed atmosphere

Plussat: the food in the restaurant is excellent, the staff are very helpful and the whole atmosphere of the hotel is very relaxing.

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: Staff were polite, knowledgeable and helpful, room had everything required.

Miinukset: Towels were a bit small. I'm a small person, but even for me, I felt the towels could have been bigger.

Plussat: Oswaldo the receptionist does an extremely well job, always with a smile. Locarion inside the old town, cannot get more central than it is

Miinukset: All in all was good, nothing to complain about

Plussat: Very bad

Miinukset: No

Plussat: - owner very nice - there was a microwave in the room - fridge - warm water - tea, coffee, sugar and cups

Miinukset: - dangerously steep stairs - the shower was in the room, it took a lot of space and it didn't seem too sturdy - the water heater for coffee/tea was very dirty - the wifi signal was weak at times - too few power outlets. There were some outlets near the sink which 1. isn't very safe due to the water 2. they were far away from the bed - the door frame was damaged and I think a good kick could have opened the door

Plussat: Siisti, huippu sijainti!

Miinukset: Jyrkät portaat.

Plussat: Very good location. You are given a fridge and a kettle with some instant coffee and tea which is a very nice touch. Good value for money.

Miinukset: Noise outside since there was a bar next to the pension.

Miinukset: It was too noisy because of neighbours, shouting from outside and banginig doors in a corridor.

Plussat: Super nice staff, very close to station and city centre walking distance from everywhere, clean, good value for money !!!

Plussat: Good value. Bed was pretty good. Central location.

Miinukset: Noise coming from other buldings. The building is pretty old so you can hear a lot.

Plussat: Large room with double bed, fridge, shower & tv set. Right at the heart of the city center! It's still great going out around the Great market area at night.

Plussat: Nothing much but does the job if all you need is a place to sleep. The place was clean, and there were more than enough towels provided. The fridge and kettle allow having a simple breakfast before moving on with your daily activities.

Miinukset: The place is clearly outdated and in need of renovation. The sink was making noises for a bit after using it (I am guessing old pipes).

Plussat: Liinavaatteet ja pyyhkeet olivat puhtaat

Miinukset: Kuvat Bookingin sivuilla eivät vastanneet todellisuutta. Suihkukaappi oli asennettu tavalliseen huoneeseen. Makuuhuone ahdas. Sänky oli puolittain oviaukon kohdalla.

Plussat: This facility was clean. Staff was professional.

Plussat: Staff were faultless, interested in us as people but not intrusive and really helpful.

Miinukset: Food choice v limited for vegetarians especially at weekends, although staff did offer to try to find alternatives.

Plussat: Very nice breakfast.

Miinukset: We pushed our twin beds together, but that resulted in quite a gap in between.

Plussat: Free parking space. Fast check-in and 24h service is very convenient. The beds were comfortable.

Miinukset: We were assigned a room on the ground floor. The carpet in the hall through the rooms was smelling like smoke/weed. It was quite disgusting. The shower was not properly cleaned.

Plussat: Hotel joins main roads and bus route

Miinukset: Nothing to do local to hotel, stayed in busy hotel through week but empty at weekend less than ten people in hotel and car park for weekend cyclists “ non residents” but still paid full price. Requested reduction on second weekend nothing given booked into somewhere different at similar cost, won’t be back if can be helped. Some of the bar staff only gave attention to restaurant and not the single people / men sitting at bar wanting food ended up not ordering, saved a table. Most of the staff really good and friendly! Nice but try not to go back would pay more elsewhere for better service? I hope? Have stayed at other hotels in chain and more interactive and customer focused!

Plussat: Clean, simple and uncomplicated checkin, parking space

Miinukset: The surroundings are pretty „industrial“

Plussat: Friendly & Helpfull Staff , comfortable room and quiet .

Miinukset: The evening meal was average would not excite me . A bit out of Town but the No 74 bus gets my vote cheap and on time .

Plussat: Good parking places

Miinukset: Hairdryer defect, no refund or mobile Hairdryer. Dirty room under bed and Windows

Plussat: We did not have breakfast. The coffee machine was also very nice

Miinukset: The instructions to get to the hotel was inaccurate - we ended up walking about 1,2km. And the correct bus stop is in front of the hotel. A bar fridge would have been nice.

Plussat: Location is fine Breakfast needs to be improve at least an Omelet need to be added to breakfast based on request

Miinukset: Need to organize the Reception area better

Miinukset: Showers, breakfast could be better

Plussat: The reception staff were very very friendly and helpful and they truly care about guests. This is my second time and the service is as it has been outstanding. Highly recommend it.

Miinukset: Nothing. The reception staff made me like it.

Plussat: kindness of the staff.

Plussat: Perfect common area to study or chill, bus stop in front of it, really quiet to sleep at night. In general, way better than my previous stay!

Plussat: easy to reach

Miinukset: security and safety

Plussat: - nice Location - friendly staff

Miinukset: - shower could have better water pressure - rooms are crowded (dorm)

Plussat: It was close to the city center, and very easy to walk around the city.

Miinukset: Could be a bit more clean. The shower did not work properly

Plussat: I liked the courtyard. The staff were nice and sorted us with a fan and apologetic that our room had been baking all day in the heatwave

Miinukset: Sadly the courtyard. The bar in the courtyard opens until 12:30am so if you’re looking for some sleep it ain’t going to happen.

Plussat: location, staff

Miinukset: it was too hot
