Highly Recommended

Amazing Hotel, Staff are very friendly and helpful! Next to the Safari Park, I couldn't visit as I was travelling for business so arrived late and left early for the Airport but will definitely visit again. Amazing for families but I felt very comfortable and welcome as a lone traveller. Very Clean.

Bra

Gode senger. Rent. Pent bad. Litt trangt rom. Restauranten burde hatt take away og noe annet enn buffet for slitne familier på kveldstid

Helt ok standard men ikke noe mer.

Litt rart bad da det ble oversvømt ved dusjing. Flate oppbrukte fjærputer burde vert fiberputer grunnet allergi. Sengen var ok men ikke opptimal.

Gjennomsnittlig norsk = dyrt og litt kjipt

Mye penger for lite rom uten frokost eller annet inkludert. Veldig hyggelig personale, men litt kjipt at man ikke får mer for pengene.

Jevnt over veldig fornøyd!

Bra utvalg på frokost, men syntes ikke eggerøren var så god. I tillegg var dynene veldig lite pustende.
