Untidy room,poor brekfest,dirty floors, Dirty furniture.Sewer smell on the toilet. The lifts didn’t work.A run-down room. Dirty carpets in halkeaisi.

I stayed in this hotel for one night for both business and pleasure, room 243. There was enough room for one person, even two would have been quite comfortable, and the bed was good to sleep in. There was a patio outside. However, in case one wanted to have extra airing to the room, it would have been a risk to keep the patio door open during the night, as the patio was on street level and it seems that pretty much anyone had access to that parking lot at the back of the hotel where the patio was. Luckily I did not need additional airing. The air conditioning seemed to function well as the room air felt generally fresh. My nose got a little stuffed at first but it appeared that the reason was the material of the armchair to which I seemed allergic, and when I covered the chair (with clothes), this problem vanished. The view from the room was, as said, to the parking lot. There were no chairs or tables on the patio though, I don't know if they are brought during warmer time or if there are none in general. However, if one wants to move quickly between the parking lot and the room with heavy bags, that would be very convenient. There was very good space for storage. The bathroom also had good space. The cleaning had been done well, and I am picky about that. The hotel staff was very helpful. The breakfast was very nice, with a selection of breads, vegetables, and desserts. However, it would have been nicer to have a little more yoghurt types. There were several restaurants in walking distance from the hotel in the centre. However, I found the hotel area very peaceful in the evening. Overall, this was a good quality hotel. I would recommend it. However, I am not sure if the quality for money ratio is that good.
