Positive Reviews
positive:
Polite and courteous staff
The staff are all very friendly and very polite at all times
and they speak fluent English which is a massive help if your Norwegian is not
up to scratch. They will go above and beyond to fulfil any requests that you
may have and they are only too happy to give advice and recommendations on what
there is to see and do in the area including the best places to grab a bite to
eat.
positive:
Just a stone's throw from the city centre
You are within very easy walking distance of the city centre
which is just a stroll away and where you will find many different shops, bars
and restaurants in addition to the railway station which is around 20-minutes'
walk away should you wish to visit other towns and cities during your stay
here.
positive:
A hearty breakfast to start the day
The breakfast offered here has received many positive
mentions in reviews by previous guests who were impressed with the wide
selection of food available and also with the quality of food with the fresh
fruit particularly nice and the best of all is that it is complimentary and
included in the price of your room.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Faulty air conditioning
There are reports from previous guests that the air
conditioning doesn't work properly and in some cases it wasn't possible to
switch it off meaning that the room was very cold.
negative:
Fellow guests can be noisy
This is a family hotel and there are excellent facilities for children, but this also means that at times it can be quite noisy and there are doors slamming all the time which can be frustrating.
negative:
Safety deposit box in an odd place
The safe is in quite a strange place in one of the bedside
tables and near to the floor which makes it difficult to use especially if you
have back problems and the bedside tables are not fixed so can be taken away
quite easily.
