The interior was recently renovated: private sanitary facilities in the room and a well-equipped shared kitchen.
Extensive breakfast buffet.

Mysigt hostel med hög standard som rekommenderas!
Fantastiskt! Fint belägen i en dal på promenadavstånd från älven. Lugnt ställe. Möjlighet till familjerafting (forsränning).
Standard, storlek och skick på rummet överträffade våra förväntningar.
Vi hade ett rum med eget badrum. I rummet fanns ett litet pentry med 2 spisplattor, kylskåp och diskho.
Lakan, badlakan, städning och frukost ingick i priset.
Gratis parkering precis utanför stugan.
Ingen tv eller mikrovågsugn på rummet.

En pärla vid vatten mitt i naturen. Huvudbyggnaden är i typisk gammelnorsk stil. Vi bodde i ett nyrenoverat rum m dusch och toalett. Rekommenderas starkt!
