Hotel Merikotka

Was it the luck I had a pretty clean, neat and cosy double room, or was it the warmth and unostentatious care of the staff that made my stay in Merikotka warm and convenient in that "Finnishly" cold beginning of May. Neither I expected much nor I missed a thing in the hotel: all was in, all was comfortable, cosy and clean. Good and clean bathroom, shampoo and shower gel available on the house; magically soothing and ergonomic bed with the pillow that must have been charmed to bring you to sleep immediately you put your head on it :)... The breakfasts were simple and tasty, the guests could use the microwave, toaster, kettle and dishes at their convenience; the room was cleaned daily. The young couple who ruled the hotel helped a lot at unexpectedly speedy change of my trip plans: I had full money back for one night off the hotel, was given plenty of time to wait inside for my bus after the check - out time had expiried, and they printed my flight tickets. The bar downstairs was fine and the "sea view" to the harbour was sooo calming :). The convenient paths to the town center to be mentioned and nice promenades across the harbour were so thought - conditioning too.
