If I come to Fossavanstgangan once more, I'll try to get a room in the same place. Yes, it is 50 km from the event centre, but it is in a calm, cosy location, not in the town with the traffic, noise, etc.

“pleasant stay with very friendly owner .”
very friendly lady owner , who lives right behind the house. Good kitchen and a nice dining table adjacent. Not far from the busstop. Clean , quiet , I can recommand. Thingeyri is very small. Have food with you if you arrive after 5 o clock , because no shop is open after that !!! Nice swimming pool close by for your evening entertainment.!

“2 days stay”
The rooms are large and clean. Beds are simple but comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped. The location is very nice next to the fjord. Very easy check in and check out, you find the key in the door of the room and leave it there when you leave.

We receved an upgrade of our room. Thé kitchenette and eating room were seperated by a door and they were nice. There was a really big television screen. We had a problem with the lock on the door and the owner was available to help us immediately.
