Goeie plek om een nacht door te brengen
Pros:

Het is een half uur van het vliegveld dus lekker om een nacht te verblijven als je aankomt. Prachtig huis aan het water. Personeel vriendelijk en een goed diner en ontbijtbuffet. Ruimte is gezellig ingericht. Kamer is netjes.

Great location near EVE, but far too noisy and outdated.
Pros:

The hotel is conveniently situated on the way to Evenes Airport (EVE), boasting a truly great scenic location. The breakfast room offers a beautiful sunrise view directly over the water. Additionally, the interior has a charming and distinctive rustic decor, blending traditional western and maritime/fisherman aesthetics.

Cons:

Unfortunately, our stay was quite disappointing regarding rest and room quality. The rooms are dated, poorly maintained, and have very poor soundproofing. Although we had specifically asked for a quiet room, getting inside was an ordeal in itself: the door lock to our room was faulty and required the assistance of a waiter, making us feel like locksmiths just trying to wiggle the key into the exact right position to get into our own room.

The noise issues made a restful night impossible. A loud party was happening at the hotel bar, and due to the lack of insulation and thin wooden floors, we were repeatedly woken up throughout the night by seemingly drunk guests stomping around on the floor above us. On top of that, the breakfast buffet was rather mediocre. Nowhere near the standard you would expect compared to chains like Scandic. It is really a shame given the fantastic location, but I would only recommend this place as a last resort for an overnight stop before a flight from Evenes.

Pros:

在罗弗敦最惊喜的一家住宿，本来是为了最后一天返回机场随便预定的一家，没想到被惊艳了，酒店的湖景非常美丽，应该多住一晚的，全天都有免费咖啡供应，距离eve 机场开车大概30分钟车程，很方便

Für einen kurzen stopp-over absolut zu empfehlen
Pros:

Das Hotel ist sehr schön gelegen. Zwar etwas abseits aber dafür hat man eine tolle aussicht, egal von welchem Zimmer aus.

Cons:

Es ist schon etwas älter und das Zimmer war nicht beheizt bei unserer Ankunft.

Quarto minúsculo
Pros:

Nada em especial

Cons:

Do quarto. Extremamente pequeno, mal dava para colocar uma mala e a cama não tinha espaço nas laterais para entrar e sair.

Bedingt gut
Pros:

Sehr schöne Lage am Wasser. Freundliches Personal. Service gut mit kostenfreien Kaffee und Säften ganztags.Sauberes Zimmer.

Cons:

Altes Haus mit kleinem Zimmer, nur rudimentäre Ausstattung. Ein Sessel für zwei Personen, Foen völlig alt und vergilbt, im Bad keinerlei Ablagen. Für Raucher nicht eine einzige Unterstellmöglichkeit/Überdachung rund ums Haus bei Regen. Parkplatz relativ weit vom Haus entfernt, bei Regen wird man richtig nass, wenn die Koffer aus dem Auto oder ins Auto müssen. Insgesamt nicht ideal und sicherlich deutlich besser zu lösen. Fuer eine Nacht reicht es gerade so, mehr aber auch nicht. Insgesamt für das Gebotene zu teuer. Keine Nachlademöglichkeit für E-Autos.

Not great not terrible
Pros:

The location is lovely, the houses themselves look great from the outside, and the staff is helpful and friendly.
The breakfast was also very good.
Great for a one-night stay, near the airport.

Cons:

The photos are far from reality. The rooms are tiny and creaky - you can hear literally everything your neighbors are doing and saying.
