The check-in in this hotel has been terrible and still is. Too long waiting time. But the staff is very friendly. Also we could hardly notice any refurbisment except that cooling in the rooms was broken and the windows could not be opened like earlier. Very painful night, hardly any sleeping.

Sviitti sijaitsi 3. kerroksessa, joka on todella matalalla. Näkymät ikkunoista viereiseen kauppakeskukseen ja talon seinään. Ei todellakaan hintansa väärti. Huone oli kyllä remontoitu ja uusi sekä siisti mutta liian kallis.
