We loved having an authentic Danish experience while staying at the hotel. We could have stayed elsewhere in a hotel that was like any other hotel but this hotel has an interesting history. Plus the property is gorgeous! The front desk staff were great!

Det er et fint sted - god beliggende til strand og skov. Sengene var meget dårlige, ikke særlig brede og hele sengen vippede når den ene vendte sig. Kloak lugt fra toilettet.
