CABINN Copenhagen
Hotel is located in a great spot, only trouble is you can’t check in till 3pm. Didn’t have breakfast this time but was good value for money. Bathrooms are a bit small especially when you have a little one with you

Wakeup Copenhagen Borgergade
Great location and value. I usually stay at higher end hotels but was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and how modern this place was. Except for a hair on the bathroom ceiling, the place was clean and comfortable.

Tivoli Hotel
Vi var super glade, dog manglede der conditioner på badeværelset, og man skal nu tilkøbe badekåber. Det er lidt ærgerligt. Vil hellere man bare lægger beløbet oveni prisen for værelset. Super dejligt med se ud tjekning sammenlignet med de fleste andre steder.

Copenhagen Go Hotel
Check in was very easy. My blow dryer did t work. They were out of the shampoo/conditioner/lotion package to purchase. In pictures online they were in the room and was not clear that you had to purchase them. Check out was fast and easy
