Clarion Hotel The Hub
"Nice place to stay. Very busy and bustling. Friendly staff. Long line of people and wait at check in. My husband and I like milk in our coffee rather than creamer. This was the only hotel in Norway, Sweden or Portugal where we’ve stayed that wouldn’t give us a little cup full to put in the fridge ..."
