WiFi did not work, and for the Fosshotel brand, this one is the most disappointing we have been at. Extremely costly paid parking, terrible Wi/Fi, and albeit some stay were so kind, no one wanted to be there… breakfast buffet was okay, but nothing to pay that much for.

Nice hotel close to the waterfront. Walkable to many sites and restaurants. Friendly staff. We stayed 3 days, went north and then stayed 3 more days. Rooms were a nice size. The first room was at the back. We couldn’t leave the window open as there was a really loud fan going. Second room was at front. Was quieter. We still slept well in both instances.
