Okay price/location

Check-in not impressing. They had a paper copy of my booking, but didn't know that I had already paid for the stay. Breakfast was not very exiting. Most bowls were almost empty, and it was random which guests was asked they wanted omelet/eggs/beans. I wasn't asked at all. The room had no window. Aircon was good, but I had sweaty motorcycle clothes in the room, so not good enough to clean/dry the air. No hangers makes the closet useless. They didn't see, that my booking was for 3 nights, so room wasn't cleaned after first night. Friendly staff helped quickly when asked.

Bra men trångt

Mysigt ställe, dock lite små rum. Jättetrevlig personal, hjälpe oss med allt vi frågade om. Bra läge nära strand och restauranger. God frukost! Fin pool på taket
