"Ein schöner Aufenthalt"

8.0

Die Lage ist perfekt für einen Städte Besuch . Das Personal ist immer für einen da und sehr freundlich. Wir würden es trotz kleiner Mängel wieder buchen .

Wir wussten das man keine Fenster öffnen kann deswegen haben wir extra eines der wenigen gebucht mit Fenster zum öffnen, nur das war ein komplett veraltetes Zimmer so das wir nach einer Nacht doch ein normales Zimmer bekommen haben. Beim Abendessen könnte man ein bisschen mehr auf Qualität und Abwechslung achten.

Ein Hotel in einem ehemaligen Gefängnis, diese Idee wurde perfekt umgesetzt. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen, gutes Frühstück und Abendessen, sehr gute Verkehrsanbindung zu den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln. Ruhige Lage und ein Spaziergang zur baltischen See.

Wir waren im 4. Stock und konnten leider kein Fenster öffnen.

Sehr zentrale, aber dennoch ruhige und grüne Lage auf der Halbinsel. Das gesamte Hotel ist sehr einladend eingerichtet. Stadtzentrum ist fußläufig oder direkt mit Tram Nr. 4 erreichbar. Frühstück, Fika am Nachmittag und Abendessen als kleines Buffet waren lecker und frisch. Das Zimmer war sehr geräumig mit bequemen Betten und absolut ruhig. Uns hat der Aufenthalt sehr gefallen.

Wir haben das gebuchte Zimmer erst ab dem zweiten Tag und nach Intervention bekommen. Das ist uns bei Buchung über booking.com schon öfter passiert. Das Restaurant befindet sich im UG, hat kaum Tageslicht und ist sehr dunkel. Die Stühle dort sind z.T. dreckig und abgewetzt und entsprechen nicht dem Standard des Hauses. Mehr Auswahl bei Kaffee und Tee (Schwarzer Tee) wäre schön, ebenso mehr Abwechslung bei der Fika (an 4/5 Tagen gab es Apfelkuchen). Aber das ist wirklich Jammern auf hohem Niveau.
