Väldigt trevlig personal, men lite slitet och omysigt rum. Funkar bra som konferenshotell när man bara ska sova, men inget jag rekommenderar som myshotell.

The blind in our room would only go up half way. It would have been nice to be able to appreciate the beautiful view.

The room was small but clean. The location on the river but a short walk to town and to the park and 2 museums was great. Breakfast was lovely. The staff was friendly and warm.
