“Good hotel, good food and good location”
The room was clean, staff on reception were friendly and helpful. We ate dinner in the hotel - the food was good as was the service. There was a good breakfast buffet which you eat in the historic part of the building - so a good atmosphere. The hotel is conveniently situated - right in the centre of Sandnes and right by the train station. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
