Huoneen siivous ei toiminut vaikka pyysimme siivousta 2 eri kertaa. Wc paperi loppui....piti "lainata" yleisestä vessasta. Muutoin kaikki toimi hienosti.

Hei JarmoKiitos arvokkaasta palautteestasi. Suuret pahoittelut, että siivous ei ole pyynnöistä huolimatta toteunut. Tässä on käynyt jokin valitettava virhe meidän osaltamme. Toivottavasti kuitenkin näemme vielä uudelleen ja voimme palvella teitä paremmin. Mukavaa kesää!Ystävällisin terveisin,Sirja / Vaakuna vastaanotto

Hei Juha,Kiitos arvokkaasta palautteestanne. Toivottavasti vierailunne meillä oli muuten mieluisa. Meillä on useita eri tyypin huoneita, joista avautuu näköala joko kaupunkiin tai sisäpihan puolelle. Pyrimme aina saatavuuden mukaan tarjoamaan asiakkaillemme mieluisan näköalan toiveiden mukaan. Mukavaa syksyn jatkoa teille ja tervetuloa vierailemaan uudestaan!Ystävällisin terveisin Anna, vastaanotto
