Reviews
Room is modern and comfortable
Only issue is there’s no tissue paper in the room and a bit cold. Also pool table equipment is not in good shape.
I would say the additional charge for the sauna and hot tub isn’t worth it and to skip it. Was quite surprised at the additional charge for those services given the price of the hotel / normally those are included. The saunas are very small 1-3 people and hot tub nothing too special/very icy and cold when getting into.
The only negative was the fact that the hotel charged a separate fee to use the hot tub.
