Reviews
Aside from that, really nice norwegian breakfast with alot of fish!
Stayed here for one night on our way to Geiranger. We were greeted warmly and got offered a fan because the temperature was quite high. The room was a bit warm and humid, but it was allright since we opened the window and put the fan on. Room was clean and tidy. Bathroom was on the smaller side but well equipped with shampoo, conditioner and bodywash (all of them from Rituals, big plus). Breakfast was a good selection of warm meals and bread as well as plenty of fresh fruit ( the croissants were above the average 😁). Unfortunately we didn't have time to experience the pool, but it is available. Overall, a pleasant stay!
