Pros:

Beliggenheten, god frokost, hyggelig personale.

Cons:

Ekstremt lytt mellom rommene i annekset ved siden av. Gulvene knirket sånn at det hørtes ut som at bygget skulle falle sammen. Man hørte meget godt at de på naborommet var på toilettet.
Dessuten var det arbeid ute på bryggen, som var sagt å vare kun mellom kl. 8.00 og 17.00, men de startet 06.40. Sov veldig dårlig på dette hotellet!

Pros:

It’s the second time we’ve used the family suite which works perfectly for us. It’s a great location with great breakfast and helpful staff

Bathroom in suite is a bit squashed and would be better as shower only.

Overall, my stay here was excellent. I loved everything about it. The room was perfectly sufficient for one and although
Pros:

Quaint property with a gorgeous view! Currently some construction happening by the dock but otherwise, the view was a 10/10. I loved waking up and going to bed looking at the mountains and the glistening water.

Cons:

Really don’t have many complaints. It is a bit of a walk from the main train station but there is also a bus that runs so really not a huge issue.
