€100 PENALTY IF YOU SMOKE IN YOUR ROOM!
Convenient location from the railway station and not far to the city centre on foot. The rooms are fine. Note that you have to call the owner on your phone when you arrive. No one works at the reception. The price is OK, but almost everything is charged extra; breakfast, towel, even WiFi (although I was not charged, I don't know if I just got lucky?). The registration form asks for credit card data in case you smoke for which the penalty is €100 (I refused to give that information as I am a non-smoker). The shared bathroom smelled badly after 2 days, and the bad smell stayed for the last 3 days of my stay. I only saw someone working for the hotel very briefly once. It is not a nice place to stay, but generally OK.

Centrally located...
The hotel is only a few minutes walk from the city centre, and is also only 2 blocks from the station. Door handle was coming off the shared bathroom door. Bed was comfortable.

Harriet hostellin majoitusarvio
Kiitos, pidimme majoituksesta. Meille oli tärkeä levätä muutama tunti laivareissun jälkeen. Aamulla oli aikainen lähtö junaan. Juna- asema aivan lähellä. Tämä oli tärkein kriteeri samoin majapaikan rauhallisuus. Huonoa oli pyyhkeiden puuttuminen. Vuodevaatteet olivat siistit. Wc ja kylpyhuone olivat käytävällä aivan vieressä.

Sisäänkirjaus oli helppoa myöskin saapuessani huoneet olivat selvästä merkattu. Hintaluokkaan nähden hostel huone oli ihan viihtyisä ja halpa. Tykkäsin majoituksestani ja sänky oli erittäin mukava nukkua.

Niin ja näin
Sisäänkirjautumisen alkaessa paikalla ei ollut ketään henkilökunnasta ja lähes puoli tuntia hotellin numeroon soittamisen jälkeen paikalle tuli henkilö luovuttamaan avaimia. Vessassa oli vain vessapaperirullan jämät ja huoneen saippuapullo oli tyhjä. Ei verhoa ikkunassa. Huone suhteellisen siisti.
