Majatalot – Castellafiume

"First and last time at this hotel. If you travel with your bike, you most likely do not want to book a room at this hotel. I would have chosen another hotel if they had publicly announced more detailed information about the hotel's rules. I was locked out of my hotel room after returning from a bike ride. My key card did not work and I had to walk to the reception in my socks because this hotel does not tolerate cycling shoes. At the reception it turned out that I had committed an original sin the night before by taking my clean, 100% oil-free and grease-free gravel racing bike with ceramic bearings and a waxed chain to the private balcony of my Superior room on the second floor. The bike is modestly worth only 10-12 thousand euros, but just a few days before the European Gravel Championships, its value cannot even be measured in money, so I would have liked to keep it in my sight. Otherwise, the hotel was clean, the location was good, the breakfast was average but the breakfast room was a bit crowded, the air conditioning in the room was efficient but loud, the bed was quite comfortable but the sheets were so rough that I got a chafing on my elbow."
