  : Good location to go to Cauma lake, very nice staff
  : It was very hot in the room, an airco or at least a fan would have been great. Breakfast is minimal

  : Location is excellent for the lift.
  : Poorly maintained (elevator doors screeching so loud they can be heard in room, extractor fans broken), dated interiors (no power sockets by the bed and only one socket in the entire room), lacklustre breakfast (small selection of deli items which often ran out, and ran out of boiled eggs on 3rd morning, ostensibly because the egg boiler broke - no cooked egg options), and wellness/sauna is so small you wont get to use it unless part of a large group, which will otherwise hog the facility (theyd also run out of towels by 6pm and there were no staff to replenish these).Reception is in the other building across the road (connecting tunnel at -1) and only staffed mornings and evenings.Some single rooms are located adjacent to the elevator shaft making sleep impossible until everyone else has gone to bed, and all face the street and the loud church bells that go off every 15 minutes. Room is too hot to sleep and an open window invites in the noise of the bells and cars.Double rooms have nice views but again are too hot and also suffer from a lack of amenities, for the price.In general overall feeling was that its overpriced and understaffed, and does not offer hotel services, more like self catering rooms at approximately hostel level of quality.

  : Breakfast was good. Location was superb for me since I was heading to Pinut and the bus stop was just steps away. The Laxx rental shop is also just across the road. Very convenient.
  : If you're a light sleeper, you should ask for a room that is away from the breakfast area. The room I had was on the 2nd floor and just above the breakfast area which can be noisy for some people.
