Sorry for giving only three pointsm: there is much potential to a great experience.||The hotel looks nice, kind of retro exterior and interior with matching decorations in the rooms. It is small and definately lacks the the chain hotel impersonality. ||There are also other things that would point out to high points| - the lady who gave us the room was very helpful and cheerful personality|- good parking facilities|- the breakfast was ok|- the sauna in our room was good (even though there was some strange odour in the showers outside of it)||This kind of a hotel is, however, very much depending on the details that make the visitors feel taken care of with special attention - and this is where they failed: even if they knew when we were coming the heating of the room was turned very low. It was not nice to go to a room with ”too fresh” an air and freezing cold floor. We needed to go into the sauna when it was just below 50 degrees centigrate - to avoid shuttering.

Breakfast at the bakery Antin konditoria was good, and we bought other delicious treats from there during the day. Warmly recommend, we...
Read moreLovely a bit quaint place to stay, simple and relaxed, quite worn out old-school hotel. Just across the river from the bus station or the center of the town. Sinks in room, but WC in the corridor. One shower per floor with not very clear rules of use. Quite comfortable beds. Kitchen with all necessary kitchenware on the both floors. Helpful and friendly hostess, some things might take time. Check up their office hours! Absolutely neat breakfast in the neighboring bakery (included), open since 6AM, till 10AM. With all...
