The rooms are dated and uses the traditional key to unlock. We had some issues with the key during our stay. The room is pretty small although you have a spacious balcony with a view. The hotel breakfast is not something to look forward to.

There is also international breakfast with an abundant choice, instead dinner based on typical and more or less international dishes. Last thing: consider that the hotel is 8.9km far from the...
