Gym and pool closed for refurbishments

The gym and pool were not available due to refurbishment, but I was not informed. Given this must have been planned, I am surprised that I wasn't informed and that it wasn't made clear on the hotel.com site. I could have paid less in other hotels

Room needs repairs, avoid rooms near lift.

Noise from lifts kept me awake until late then woke me early in the morning. The sink had a crack in it, the shower went hot and cold, and the grout on the tiles was black in places. However, the hotel has a nice gym and swimming pool with great views. The breakfast was good also. It's a shame the room I stayed in was not better.

1980 ringte og ville ha hotellet sitt tilbake!

1980 ringte og ville ha hotellet sitt tilbake! Hvis du er fan 80 talls estetikk og slitent interiør med en aircondition som lager lyder som kun kan minne om tropiske fuglers paringsdans på tilfeldige tidspunkt hele natten (med garantert våkne garanti, her snakker vi sikkert 95 db!) så anbefales dette hotellet 😅 Ellers er beliggenheten bra med T bane like ved. Rolig strøk. Frokosten er helt grei, ikke fantastisk, men bra nok til at du kan kose deg. Airconditionen kan lage nordpol temp på rommet ditt hvis du vil det.

Mediocre stay

This is a so-so, mid range hotel with marginally comfortable beds and furniture that needs repair. The shower room is quite nice. It's also very difficult to find if you are not driving.
