Bott på Skansen flertal gången men den här gången var det ett väldigt trist rum. Vägg i vägg med hissen som lät, vägg vid säng vibrerade när hissen åkte upp och ner, som tur var det inte många som bodde på vår våning.

Frukost var bra . Kan eventuellt påpeka att skyltarna inte var uppsatta till de olika yoghurtalternativen. Fick fråga om detta. Dock kom skyltarna direkt på plats så det var inget att klaga på. Väldigt trevlig personal som var hjälpsam. Jag fick med mig kaffe i termos. Var fint!!

Fina och rena rum, trevlig personal och bra mat. Rejäl frukost med stor bredd. Enda smolket var att den stackars bartendern fick springa som en skållad råtta för att hinna med, kunde varit ytterligare en
