Helt ok, men litt å klage på allikevel

Ok opphold, men det var iskaldt på rommet og frokosten var ikke bra. Appelsinjuicen på tappekranen var dårlig og smørpakningene var harsknet og bar preg av å ha vært ut og inn av kjøla flere ganger, men datoen var innenfor. Veldig flott rom og god seng. Det var et moderne spyle toalett på badet, men det virket dog ikke…. Folkene som jobbet der var vennlige og imøtekommende. Kommer nok tilbake når det er sesong…

Verd å besøke igjen!

Fantastisk beliggenhet og vi hadde stort rom med fjordutsikt. Veldig hyggelig vertskap som sørget for et minneverdig opphold. Veldig god og variert frokost. Stedet anbefales også for fplk med hund.

Gammalt och ofräscht

Det bästa med hotellet är dess läge – i övrigt var det en stor besvikelse. Hotellet är slitet och typ 80-talsstandard och inredningen ser ut att vara från någon loppis. Kan vara charmigt att inreda med gammal stil men detta såg bara billigt ut, trist. Må hända att det är en liten stad med litet utbud av hotell men detta var rent ut sagt hutlöst dyrt för låg standard! På mitt rum satt TV:n väldigt snett – inte för det betyder jättemycket men säger lite om att man inte bryr sig om detaljer. Rummet jag fick var mot baksidan och i gathöjd vilket gjorde att förbipasserande kunde se rakt in i rummet när fönsterna var öppna vilket behövdes för att lufta ut då det var tokvarmt och saknades luftkonditionering. Välj ett annat hotell är min rekommendation.
