“Do not come here. Everything is dirty and smells very bad.”
Drive the extra 2 hours. Put up the tent. Pay a bit more some other place. But do not pay good money to stay here. We had made online reservations with short notice. We waited 20 minutes until staff came to the open reception, fair enough since we booked with short notice. However, staff wasn’t particularly pleasant and it was clear that the establishment do not survive on visitors coming back next year. The motel itself seemed like it came out of an 80’s on-the-run movie. Little to no furniture, everything was dirty, sheets already on the beds. What really appalled us was when we took the sheets off the duvets to put on our own sheets. The duvet was almost all-brown from sweat and whatnot, and the duvets had distinct spots from god-only-knows-what. We were so disgusted by this that we slept in our sleeping bags on the beds, feeling like we may as well have slept in our tent if not for the pouring rain and desperation. At morning, we showered and the towels smelled sour and old when we dried off with them, like they were neither fresh nor clean. The view was great from the room - the only positive thing I have to say for this place. Do not come here.

“Perfect base for exploring this beautiful area of Norway.”
The location, older construction with turf roof and views from the rooms and common deck in front of the rooms. Separate upstairs loft for the kids. Swimming platform in the lake. Parking outside of the room. Spacious grounds and seating areas. Food & drink available if required although we did not try it. Washing machine available for use if required.

We loved the terraces overlooking the river in the beautiful evening sunshine. We ate dinner outside and it was quite sheltered from the wind. The free all-day coffee from reception was good and they sell icecreams too. Lovely friendly staff and good vibes.

“I was just passing through. The weather was good. Peaceful location away from crowds.”
You get what you pay for. I read the comments on Booking.com and lowered my expectations. The location worked for me. Pleasant views over the lake and mountain. No TV's or WIFI in the room so very peaceful at night.

A cool motel situated on a cool lake, with a view of the mountain on the other side. Great starting point for many not too demanding nearby walking trails. We spent a few enjoyable days here.
