PrisvÀrt boende i Motala

Bra hotell nĂ€ra Motala centrum. Trevlig personal, snabb och enkel check in/checkout, bra och fritt wifi. Ingen hiss i byggnaden, bra att tĂ€nka pĂ„ om man har svĂ„rt för att gĂ„ i trappor, i sĂ„ fall boka rum pĂ„ bottenvĂ„ningen. Bra frukost, fanns allt man behövde i trevlig miljö. Fint, rent men varmt rum, litet kylskĂ„p pĂ„ rummet, komfortabla sĂ€ngar. Parkering pĂ„ gatan alternativt pĂ„ systerhotellet om hotellets P Ă€r full, inga problem att bli av med bilen. Överlag bra stĂ€lle

Trevligt hotell men tyvÀrr mycket slitet rum.

Frukosten och allmÀnna utrymmen var bra. Gratis parkering gÀller endast ett fÄtal platser. VÄrt rum lÄg i suterÀngplan och var tyvÀrr mycket dÄligt underhÄllet. DÄlig ventilation, ej öppningsbart fönster, slarvigt upphÀngda mörklÀggningsgardiner, eluttag tejpade och lösa sladdar pÄ golvet. Bilderna pÄ rum motsvarar definitivt inte det rum vi fick.

En sÀng att sova i och chans till tidig incheck..

Vi kom tidigt sÄ vi fick checka in tidigare vilket var bra, men nÀr vi kom upp till rummet sÄ hade de inte ens pÄbörjat stÀdningen i det rum vi fick, sÄ ingen bra kommunikation emellan personalen. Vi fick inte koden för att komma in till hotellet efter receptionen stÀngt, den fick vi frÄga efter. Restaurangen och receptionen stÀngde 20:00 pÄ en lördag sÄ det var tur vi frÄgade efter koden.. rummet var dÄligt stÀdat med damm och spindelnÀt bland annat pÄ taklampan samt lortiga kakelfogar i duschen som ocksÄ saknade duschvÀgg sÄ hela badrummet blev blött. Frukosten var bake-off bröd med lite pÄlÀgg för att avslutas med ICAs minimuffins till kaffet. Vi hade en sÀng att sova i men det var inte mer Àn sÄ. Ligger lite utanför centrala Motala Àn vad vi rÀknat med, hade nog varit roligare att bo mer i centrum för oss tvÄ.
