First of, they do not have AC in the room. Unbearable, just a small table fan, a loud one at that. Second, need to get better at responding to messages. Tried several times without reply. Other than that the hotel is okey, very nice and welcoming staff. Nice breakfast.

Well, location is great, breakfast is good but room isolation needs improvement; you can hear noice from street. Bathroom needs also some renovation, shower curtains horrible. Further as a Silver member, I supposed to get an amount in DKK to use for drinks, reception had no idea how am I talking about

13 Euro for a small 0.3, non alcoholic beer. Absurd. The whole bar and reception area smells of kitchen grease. Rooms lack privacy curtains, but are clean and spacious. Hotel is located in city center close to the river.

Mycket trevligt hotell som är perfekt beläget i Aalborg. Nära till restauranger, shopping och flera av stadens lmdmärken. Perfekt att börja dagen med en joggingtur alternativt promenad längs med vattnet. Rekommenderas varmt om man vill bo på ett perfekt ställe vid besök i Aalborg.
