The hotel lobby and room are clean and appeared to have had a facelift recently. It is conveniently located. The check-in counter staff, Magdalene, if I am not mistaken, was very helpful and patience.

Trångt

För trånga rum, det fanns ingen plats för min snarkapparat bredvid sängen. Och att packa upp två resväskor på golvet var också trångt.
