I spent four nights in this hotel, room “three”. Overall, I was satisfied with my stay. The hotel was located on the other side of the city center from University campuses where I had a conference. However, the walk through the center was very pleasant (although the city has quite a lot of hills, and thus ups and downs for walking). There are restaurants very close, as the city center and tourist area are right there next to the hotel. However, the hotel is on a side street a little bit away from the tourist area in such a way that the hotel area itself was very peaceful and quiet, even during a weekend. The breakfast was of good quality and there was nice variation in terms of breads, juices, fruits, and yogurts – considering that this was a very small hotel with probably slightly less resources than bigger hotel chains, they really made nice efforts with the breakfast. The desserts were sweet and delicious. It was also possible to order an omelet for breakfast – I did not do that but saw some others ordering. The breakfast time started only at 8 am, which was slightly inconvenient, but manageable. It is possible to enter the breakfast area through the elevator or through the stairs, but sometimes the staff did not unlock the door from the stairs in the morning so the way through the elevator generally functioned better if one was arriving early for breakfast. The cleaning was always done very well, and I am picky about that. The room had good space to place my things. There was also enough space in the bathroom. The air conditioning functioned well and it was relatively easy to adjust to one’s liking. However, during the first night I woke up feeling too cold and the system thus needed some learning to be able to use it the most effectively. The shower water ran well. The service was always nice and efficient. For example, I had asked for rugs to be removed from my room beforehand, as I have a dust allergy and can sometimes get an allergic reaction from some rugs. The hotel staff had done that, the rugs had been removed. So they clearly listened to guests’ wishes very nicely. They also replied promptly to my emails. My room had a shower in the room itself, not in the bathroom, which may not be convenient, if there is more than one person staying. I was fine with this as I was alone. The room also had a nice outside area attached to the room where it was possible to sit and, for example, work very conveniently until it got too dark in the evening. There was no view but that did not matter to me. The view from the third floor, where the breakfast was, was beautiful over several buildings in the city. It is worth noting that the reception closes at 8:00 pm and after that, one can only get to the hotel with one’s own key. So better hold on to that key, if you are coming late. Moreover, it is necessary to advise the hotel in advance if you are arriving later than 8 pm the first evening, so that the hotel may instruct you on how to get in. I
