Amazing location and very clean. Decor and beds need significant improvement
Pros:

Location is excellent. Parking is great.

Cons:

We have stayed here many times over the past 22 years. Unfortunately the beds are probably that old. Very uncomfortable. The bathroom was clean but lighting was poor and the shower head barely made it over my husband’s head at 5’10”

Relaxing and Homey
Pros:

The breakfast was excellent! The staff was SO friendly! Parking was available on site. It was clean and picturesque. But our last night, the smoke alarm started beeping at 3 AM and we couldn’t sleep! But other than that- LOVE Hofsas House!❤️

Cons:

Change smoke alarm batteries before they go off in the middle of the night!

Wunderschön gelelegenes Hotel
Pros:

Wir hatten ein Wunderschönes Zimmer mit Panoramablick und Terrasse. Von dort aus konnten wir abends Wale beobachten. Wir hatten ein Fernglas dabei. Das ganze Haus war rosa. Einschließlich Dusche. So funny. Es gab ausreichend Parkplätze. Das Personal war sehr freundlich, lustig und hilfsbereit.
Insgesamt war die Lage das Beste.

Cons:

Naja das Frühstück war eben amerikanisch. Süße Teilchen, Banane, Mandarine, Joghurt, Orangensaft, Kaffee. Aber so war es auch angesagt. Wir haben uns aus dem Supermarkt Würstchen, Brot, Käse e dazu gekauft. Das war dann okay .
