Grötfrukost är en härlig lyx
Tre varianter på grötfrukost var härligt. En lingonshot kompletterade. God variation även i övrigt på frukostbuffén.
Sängen något för hård för mina höfter men fungerade ok för ett par nätter.
Vänlig personal som alltid tog ögonkontakt och kändes tillgängliga.

Omoderna rum, mögel i fogarna i badrummet och allmänt gammalt och slitet. Extremt lyhört mellan rummen och därmed svårt att få en god sömn.
Bra frukost och hjälpsam personal.

Blir ikke bedre når en reiser med hund
Veldig hyggelig å føle seg så velkommen når en reiser med hund.
Rommet var utstyrt med hundeseng, vannskål, hundegodis og bæsjepose 👍
Alt var rent og pent, deilig frokost med mye å velge i og egen avdeling å spise i hvor vi kunne ha med hunden.
