A strange place...
We chose this hotel because it looked good on the website and had a saunsa/fitness facilities plus a bar, selling drinks and snacks. As we visited in December, we thought it would be good to come in from the cold and have a sauna then a snack.
Sadly this wasn't possible as the sauna and fitness facilities have to be pre-booked and paid for on top of the room costs. The bar closes at 9.30pm each night and all the staff then leave the hotel.
If you need any help after this time, forget it as there's nobody available.
The good points were that the rooms were large and very clean and the buffet breakfast very good. It lacked any atmosphere however, and was stark and minimalist.
It's a good 45 minute walk into the town, which was fine for us as we're pretty used to hijing, but anyone less mobile would need to use the public transport which in this case means two different buses each way,
I wouldn't stay here again under any circumstances.
