Very bland and worn down hotel right off of the highway.
We needed a place to sleep to cut a long drive in half, and it suited that purpose.
Breakfast was included and very decent.

Nice rooms. Hotel was old, and facilities mostly same, pool looked nice though we did not use it.
Hotel did not inform us about renovations. Hammering started 7 a clock, on top of that the motorway outside was constantly audible. According to staff, there was literally not a room we're you could not hear it constantly.
Craftsmen started at 7am, knocking and drilling on the floor above. Guests started banging on the walls to each other when there was no indication that renovations were taking place. It is unprofessional of the hotel to plan the renovation at times that dont take guests into account! This is a Hotel where you expect a good nights sleep. It can be planned at other times, for example 9am-5pm, as in other hotels. I have stayed at the hotel many times and had requested a room at the end of the hallway due to slamming doors, but this was not granted even though there were very few guests at the hotel.
Vi tog det billigaste rummet och fick troligtvis det sämsta rummet av denna variant.
Toastolen hade kraftig beläggning som gjorde att det såg helt ostädat ut.
Rummet var förövrigt väldigt enkelt och en av det sämsta rummet jag varit på i sverige på väldigt länge.
Ser ikke ut som på bildene
(Var ikke rent og lå ting fra di som var der tidligere) ( så ut som mug. På bade)
Når jeg bestilte så det ut som et moderne med en klassisk stil men rime eg fik så ut som eg skule bli lakt in på et gammelt sykehus hotel. Var ikke no hjelp heller hos di som jobbet der di foran meg så det same til hun bak disken og svare var bare at du Kune betale mer så Kune di få noe bedre så jeg dro å lå på et annet hotel

Ligger utmärkt när man skall åka vidare . Hotellet är ok men det behövs en uppdatering av underhåll. Mycket var stängt kring poolen. Pga att det skulle fixas. Fantastisk frukost . Bra laddningsstationer. Det här hotellet skulle mycket väl kunna bli mycket mer .
Bestilte et rom. På bilde ved bestillingen så jeg et rom med dobbeltseng man kom til fra begge sider. Men vi fikk et rom med en 150cm seng der den ene måtte ligge inn mot vegg. Og åle seg ned til enden når man skulle ut av senga.
I tillegg var det hengt opp en veggmontert lampeskjerm rett over hodeenden av senga. Den stanga man i når man snudde seg i løpet av natten. Helt idiotisk plassering. Dette var ikke billigste rom da jeg bestilte. Jeg mener jeg bestilte et standard rom. Men da jeg etterspurte dette i resepsjonen var tilbakemeldingen at jeg hadde bestilt det billigste rom . Resepsjonisten var ikke tilstede da jeg kom ned for å ta opp saken. Det tok litt tid før vedkommende dukket opp. Jeg opplevde ikke den hotellansatte som hyggelig.
I tillegg hadde vi støy fra E 18 rett utenfor rommet. Rommet var veldig varmt så vi måtte ha vinduet oppe. Fant ingen sted å regulere ventilasjon uten å åpne vinduet.
Veldig fornøyd med alt på hotellet. Hyggelig betjening, veldig god frokost med stort utvalg, rent på rom og ikke minst flott basseng.

Rummet saknade ventilation och fläkten som stod där var trasig. Golventilen i duschen hade lossnat med risk för fotskador. Kuddarna hade någon konstig storlek och var knöliga.

Man får vad man betalar för, valde ett av de billigare rummen, taskig ventilation, mycket buller från motorvägen, badrummet gav lite sjukhuskänsla.
Ikeasängarna ok.
De som rengör rummen borde bli bättre på att kassera trasiga glas, 2 av 4 glas hade skador med vassa kanter med risk för skador, inte ok enligt mig.
Frukost ok.
