Pros:

Frokost var god, bortsett fra at den var uforholdsmessig dyrt. Burde vært inkludert i prisen. Burde også være flere brødtyper, for eksempel noen andre rundstykker enn maisrundstykker.

Cons:

Når vi kom var det ikke redd om på sovesofaen selv om de tydelig viste at vi skulle være fire folk på rommet. Vi ankom ca 00:45 og de har da hatt hele dagen til å re opp sengen.

Pros:

Måtte betale dyrt for frokosten men den var veldig bra i flotte omgivelser

Cons:

Når vi søker og booker med kjæledyr og så får vi etterpå beskjed om å betale ekstra. Prisen er da misvisende

Kommer alltid tilbake hit pga beliggenheten og de supre ansatte i resepsjonen
Pros:

Beliggenhet, veldig serviceminded ansatte.

Cons:

Litt små rom og ekstremt varmt på nettene selv nå i midten av august. Vi overnattet 3 netter, og kun én dag fikk vi renholder på rommet. Søppel ble tatt ut håndklær byttet, men gulvet trengte sårt å bli støvsugd, men det ble ikke gjort.
