Enkelt og greit, men hyggelig!

Dette er et vandrerhjem, og standarden er deretter. Vi hadde ikke fått med oss at man måtte bestille frokost, og det var ganske langt å kjøre til nærmeste mat, men på den andre siden fikk vi sjekke inn lenge etter oppsatt tid. For å oppsummere: hvis man planlegger godt, er dette et helt fint sted å bo!

Super vandrehjem tæt på pisterne

Vi overnattede på Sælen vandrehjem natten før vi vores pakkerejse til Sælen startede. Dette for ikke at bruge den første dag på at være træt oven på en 8 timers køretur. Dette betød at vi var veludhvilet den første dag på pisten. Vandrehjemmet ligger perfekt, er billigt, pænt og rent og får mine bedste anbefalinger

Enkelt till hyfsat pris, nära Stöten

Enkelt boende till bra pris. Vi bodde i familjerum, med egen wc. Dusch är gemensam. Ok sängar (obs våningssängar), ingen tv på rummet. Tyst och lugnt på rummet. I gemensamma utrymmena beror det förstås på vilka andra gäster som bor där samtidigt. Finns tillgång till bastu för 30 kronor/timme. Man bokar tid och förfogar då över bastun själv. Finns därför risk att den redan är bokad... Gästerna städar själv rummet efter sig. Såg ok ut när vi kom, men när vi städade (efter en natt) hittade jag diverse spår efter tidigare gäster... Vi valde att köpa frukost på vandrarhemmet, bokas dagen innan. Helt okej med det mesta man kan önska.

Trevligt och lugnt läge och stillsamma gäster o atmosfär. Är nog mer intensivt inför Vasaloppet. Vi Bodde bra och åkte till Trysil på dagarna, o fixade egen mat. Det fanns frukost med vanlig svensk variation.

Convenient and about 40 km to Sälen and Trysil

I was there for skiing. This is good value for money and they even sell a really good breakfast. So it totally exceeded my expectations.But if you want luxury and ski in ski out this is not the place.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Absolut basic till en relativt hög prislapp

Om man söker ett vandrarhem där man är ok med att bo i våningssäng och får göra allt själv inkl städningen så är detta ett ok ställe. Ligger för off om man inte skall just till Stöten och är ok i renlighet. Dock var det galet mkt pengar för det lilla man fick. Å 50 kr extra för frukosten var droppen för mig. Det saknade helt finess och bredband fick man om man var själv som gäst på hela stället och satt mitt i huset så det där med tillgång till wifi var en på tok för brett begrepp för min smak.
