Kesklinn
8.8 out of 10, Excellent, (3 reviews)
"Clean, well thought out space. Loved the feel of it and the effort made to make guest feel comfortable. Personally rooms were a bit too small for me, if you have bigger luggage it’s hard to store. Beds also need privacy curtains. The beds weren’t as comfortable for me so I had to use the blanket as a cushion and pillow because pillows was wayyyy too flat. Loved that the team stopped in front of the building."
