Old world Nordic charm
A small and charming hotel. Parking is a bit of an issue as it's offsite. Room was small but clean. Lousy view of a rockface. But comfortable. Choose it as it's on way to Torp Airport. Solid. Pretty. But lacks a wow factor

This is the second time in three years that i have stayed in this property . Not only is it clean and filled with friendly service, the area is charming. I highly recommend it. Special thanks to Gunnar, the man at the front desk who was particularly kind and helpful.

Business trip
One night stay for business - arrived late and left early although the TV/Wifi facilities were excellent. Breakfast menu looked pretty good even though I did not have the opportunity to sample the food itself. Parking was somewhat expensive but to be expected given the lack of available spaces
