Shaun does construction at the moment you could hear very loud construction. No one in early that wakes you up. Also lift was broke for a day otherwise people like nice breakfast was really good.

Entirely average!
Centrally located right by the central station. Not a very attractive reception. Everything feels very closed and cramped with no outdoor areas at all. There seems to be a great deal of renovation going on so perhaps these things will improve. The entire stay was entirely average. Quite a bare bones approach to hospitality and comfort. Thankfully I spent very little time at the hotel, so I have no complaints and no glittering reviews. The price was perhaps a bit too high for what you get.

Under renovation
The hotel is under renovation. This lead to a lot of noise from 7 in the morning.
There was a lot of builder dust on the first floor, there was no heating in my bathroom (freezing), and the hotel had no option to move to a proper room.
Would definitely avoid staying here until renovations are done.
On the positive side the location is really good, and everything is close.

Fint til prisen
Central beliggenhed, venligt personale, god seng, lækker morgenbuffet.
Desværre overnattede jeg der i en varm sommerweekend, så jeg måtte vælge mellem at have vinduet åbent og få meget larm fra gaden eller at lukke vinduet for larmen og så have et alt for varmt værelse. Der var ingen anden mulighed for nedkøling.
Det skal siges, at jeg bor på landet og er derfor ikke vant til bylarm. Andre kan måske godt sove fra det.

Værelser der ikke lever op til standard på 5 sal
Vi havde desværre ikke en særligt god oplevelse da et af vores værelser var oppe på 5 sal og ikke holdt standarden man vil forvente af et standard værelse. Det var skrå vægge og slet ikke plads, udover det ville der være god stil at oplyse om at i renoverer med så kraftig påvirkning på hotellet så at man kan beslutte på baggrund af den information hvis man stadigvæk ønsker bo der.

Dejligt centralt i Århus. Vi fik dog et værelse med et meget meget lille badeværelse (sådan et nørrebrobadeværelse, hvor man skal bakke ind og hvor alt er vådt når man har været i bad(vær. 242)).
Skøn morgenmad, hvor de blødkogte æg faktisk er blødkogte.
Venligt og hjælpsomt personale.
Vi kommer igen og håber på et størrebadeværelse:-)
