There is a kitchen, a semiautomatic washer/dryer, breakfast buffet. It is very thoughtful. There are pots and pans utensils, very convenient. The washer is a plus. The Only thing that is not as expected is the water flow/sip out of the shower stall, we need to wipe it dry from time to time.

Absolutely great. Never expected the hot tub or dry sauna. Also full kitchen setup in room. Dinner here was very good. You have to try the cod stew and rye bread. I will ask for recipe.

Excellent location right off the Ring road. The room is excellently appointed - especially the kitchen. There was even an oven! Situated in a pretty area next to a stream - there’s even a little picnic area. I’d gladly book again!

We had a wonderful stay here. Arrived much before check in time because of our overnight flight from the US. The staff made us a late breakfast even though the restaurant was closed. They asked the staff to prepare our room while we ate. The room was spacious, clean, and with a kitchen and washer / dryer. Highly recommend! Bvb BB
