Categories

Cleanliness
6
Multiple mentions of dirty or stained bed linens and curtains, bad smells in rooms and corridors, and flies in the restaurant — cleanliness is a notable negative issue.
Service
8.8
Numerous comments praise staff and reception (friendly, helpful, specific staff helped rebook); service is consistently reported as a strong point.
Location
8.4
Frequently noted as conveniently located (near E6, easy access to town, parking available); location is a clear positive.
Room Quality
6
Many guests report problems: no air conditioning leading to very hot rooms, noisy/thin walls, occasional rooms without windows, poor beds and small room sizes for families.
Amenities
6.2
Mixed: family facilities (kids areas, pool) and breakfast facilities are good, but several mentions of missing in-room amenities (no kettle/coffee, no mini-fridge), small fitness centre and cold pool reduce the score.
Value for Money
7.6
Guests often call the hotel reasonably priced and family-friendly with good kids' options, though some service/room issues temper perceived value.
Food and Beverage
8.8
Breakfast is repeatedly described as very good/excellent and varied; occasional complaints (flies in restaurant) are noted but overall F&B is a strength.
Overall Experience
6.6
Overall mixed impressions: many families satisfied and praise staff, breakfast and location, but heat, noise, cleanliness and amenity gaps negatively impacted stays.

Jeden nocleg przejazdem
Pros:

Ładny pokój- przestronny. Łóżko wygodne, fajna kanapa. Duża łazienka. Fajna siłownia.

Cons:

Śniadanie troszkę za wcześnie. Byliśmy w trasie po objazdówce po Norwegii i chcieliśmy się wyspać, ale śniadanie od 6-9 to troszkę za krótko. Nierozumiem też dlaczego kazano mi dopłacić za śniadanie dziecka skoro pokój był zarezerwowany dla trzech osób ze śniadaniem.

Glemte å registrere at de ikke hadde mer rom
Pros:

Personalet var hyggelige

Cons:

Hadde bestilt rom for 2 netter. Når vi kom ditt fikk vi beskjed om at det var fullt så vi sto der og måtte sove i bilen istedenfor hotellrommet. Du kan si vi var mildt sagt forbanna. Vi bestilte en annen plass etterpå,så ringer de oss og spør hvor vi blir av jeg svarte bare at vi har funnet en annen plass så jeg fikk refundert pengene tilbake. De må ha kke glemme å registrere når de er fulle slik at ikke sånt som dette skjer. Hilsen en familie på 3

Lidt larme i natten
