Little off the main route , but should not matter if you have a car. I was not familiar with Rorbuer concept so was little surprise to not see any toiletries provided. But owner was nice to provide bedsheet and towel. Please be aware that breakfast not provided.Local people may be aware of this concept , but going from US I did not know that you are supposed to carry some stuff with you. Over all good experience and cost economical

Mycket bra boende på lugn plats. Bra utgångsläge för utflykter på Lofoten. Vi bodde i en stuga som var utrustad med allt man behöver. Fisketurerna som anordnas är toppen. Värdparet är vänliga och serviceinriktade.

Séjour okay. Cependant, il n'était pas clair lors de la réservation qu'il fallait rajouter 100 NOK par personne à l'arrivée pour avoir des draps. Si jamais su, j'aurais choisi un autre hébergement.

Rorbua var veldig slitt , dårlig luft siden ingen lufting. Badet «luktet» litt surt og veldig møkkete på rør under vasken.

Flott plass, med hyggelig vertskap og rolige gjester rundt oss. Hadde lader til elbil og rorbua vi leide inneholdt alle nødvendige redskaper slik at vi kunne ordne oss selv. Ballstad er en fantastisk plass å besøke med hav og fjell 👍

Lovely place, modeled on being a bit cheaper. You need to pay extra if you don’t want to do your own cleaning of the place. But, if you are a group it is great value, and the place and staff are lovely

Totalrenovering må utføres

Her trengs det en totalrenovering og oppgradering av alt interiør, inkludert utstyr til kjøkken. Renholdet må bedres og alt av senger og sengetøy må skiftes ut. Rett og slett for dårlig standard.

Billig, men ikke så bra

Veldig enkelt møblert, liten seng, lite egnet til opphold inne, veldig lytt. Vi kom fra annen rorbu i Å som var kr 250 dyrere per døgn for to personer, men det var verdt pengene: triveligere rorbu, bedre plassering og utsikt.
