This hotel was easy to find, and the shower was the best we have had in weeks. After a 26-day cruise, we spent 20 days driving thru Europe and slept in 14 different places. This room was spacious with easily adjustable temperature control and comfortable bed. There was a sport bar run by Gunnar and Camilla that had excellent food that met our needs. Being a sports bar, the menu was limited; but the food was great! We would definitely recommend staying here.
