Finland
Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The only positive was the pool and sauna, which we did enjoy, but unfortunately that alone doesn’t justify the price.
Negative: Not worth the money. This hotel feels completely soulless and lacks any warmth or character. Breakfast was disappointing, with canned fruits and horrible coffee from machines that tasted cheap and stale. The common areas were cold and uninviting — no carpets, no cozy elements, nothing that makes you want to spend time there. Overall, the atmosphere felt sterile and uncomfortable.
