I recently stayed at this hotel and found it to be clean and comfortable with friendly staff. The location is fantastic, right in the center of Mikkeli, making it convenient for exploring the area. However, the rooms were a bit dated and could use some improvements, and while I appreciated the dining options, it didn't quite meet my expectations.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. On the positive side, the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, making check-in and check-out a breeze. The hotel is conveniently located near the town center, which was perfect for exploring. However, the rooms could use some attention, as they weren't cleaned daily even when requested, and the dining experience was quite disappointing. Overall, it offered decent value for money, but there are definitely areas for improvement.

Overall, the hotel offers decent value for money, but it could use some improvements in certain areas.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which was located in a quiet part of town and offered spacious, clean rooms. The staff members were friendly and helpful, making my experience enjoyable.
