The hotel is not really very close to the fair and rooms are quite small. But the level is however high and the staff is really nice and helpful.
Dear Tom,
The stay was successful. Thank you for your help.
Best Regards,

Hi Brian,
All went well. Very nice hotel and no troubles at the check-in, even though we came late at night.
Thanks again.
Best regards / Med venlig hilsen
Good day.
I´m fine. I hope you too.
Thank you for asking. This is the second time my colleagues stayed at this hotel because of its proximity to the fairgrounds and comfortable facilities.
We knew it thanks to Megan and already accommodated in 2022 during the same fair.
Compared to the previous time I was informed by colleagues that the treatment was not that good.
On the other hand, the treatment with Megan Moore has always been very correct and efficient. I hope to contact her for other alternatives next time.

Hi Michelle
Hope everything is good.
Just wanted to thank you for the excellent service

Everything went as planned and we had a wonderful stay.
Thanks
Hi Megan,
Thanks
We were happy with this hotel, near the central station and the city
We think of booking it next year too.
Thanks
The location of the hotel was great since it was all walking distance. Facility was not as nice as I expected but the maintenance was good enough. However, although I booked for the twin bed, I got the room with a double bed. Nevertheless, again, the location was great. There was a supermarket right next to it and a nice cozy cafe across the street. I would stay at the same hotel again.

A great help from Ellie. She really was very careful with our trip. The hotel is more a guest house that a hotel, but for our needs was perfect - in a quiet area, near to the tram station, near to a good restaurant. We got the boarding pass in time and everything was ok. Thank you!
