Family vacation

Daniel was very friendly and helpful! If you have a skylight in your room there is a remote to close it. Would stay here again!

Excellent amenities and staff

Arrived late but wasn't a problem. Very lovely staff who weren't fazed by our young children. Room had lots of clever extras like power points at each bed and remote controlled blinds.

"Hostel" - nyrenovert og trivelig

Nyrenovert etter flom og dermed veldig rent og fint. Gode kjøkken/spisefasiliteter. Rom i forskjellige størrelser, familierom og sovesal (til 8 personer). Dusj/do til hvert rom. Trivelige folk der! Umulig å komme til med offentlig transport. Vi kom til fots og dro med taxi, som personalet bestilte til oss (det er nemlig bare EN i byen).
