great stay at modern designed hotel

private setupcomfortable bedfree laundryconstant heat
I really appreciated how private the self-service setup was. The room had nice design and felt spacious. Beds were comfortable and there were two pillows for each of us. I liked the super clean bathroom. A fridge in the room proved useful and there was a full-size fridge in the kitchen area. The location offered a very wonderful view. I found the laundry service a great bonus, especially since it was free. The shared kitchen featured an electric kettle, so it was easy to make tea. It was convenient that we could park our car right outside our room. Entering the building and our room required just a code, i found the process very easy.
The heat was an issue. The room stayed constantly at 24 degrees. I tried to set the room temperature lower and open the window, but it returned to 24 degrees quickly. I felt very UNCOMFORTABLE.

The hotel provided door codes for self check-in, convenient. I appreciated the smart TV with Netflix and the in-room fridge. There was a hot tub available . I saw strong northern lights from the balcony .
I noticed there was no daily room cleaning during my three-night stay, despite the rainy weather making the room dirty.
