The check-in in this hotel has been terrible and still is. Too long waiting time. But the staff is very friendly. Also we could hardly notice any refurbisment except that cooling in the rooms was broken and the windows could not be opened like earlier. Very painful night, hardly any sleeping.

Very good Hotel for a one night stay in Tampere. There were too many people around in considering these times - especially the breakfast was a large space full of people, which felt wrong at such a times. So hotel was good - arrangements not.
