Nydelig beliggenhet, og flott opphold. Har vært her før, og kommer gjerne igjen.
Pros:

Nydelig plass ved vannet i Ulvik. Nydelig mat. Blide og koselige folk som hadde sin jobb der. Har vært her før, og vil gjerne komme tilbake.

Dessverre var det bare kaldt vann på badet på rommet vårt. Begge dagene, så fikk ingen god dusj 😔

Pros:

Beliggenhet flott. Men hadde blitt fortalt at alle rom var med utsikt mot fjorden, det var ikke tilfelle. Stor skuffelse når man kommer med gjester fra utlandet. Til slutt fikk vi bytte mot en tillegg i prisen. Flott utsikt da vi endelig fikk det.
Ok frokost

Cons:

At de skyldte på feil info gitt fra en ikke fast ansatt. Men det kan ikke vi, kundene, vite om.

Pros:

Es verläuft sich,
Sehr gutes Frühstück

Nettes Ambiente

Cons:

In unserer dusche waren die Fugen leider etwas angeschimmelt.
Die Dusche allgemeinen lief ins ganze Bad, da der Abfluss gefühlt der höchste Punkt war.
