Worst place I've ever stayed. Smells bad, no soundproofing and doors that slam extremely hard. Breakfast shouldn't be called breakfast. The standard does not match the price. Paid 1200 sek/night should have cost a max 500 sek. Will never stay here again.

Inte toppen.

Mycket enkelt och slitet motell som vi vid ankomst trodde var övergivet. Vi bodde en natt pÄ vÀg till Göteborg och vi var helt ensamma pÄ motellet sÄ det kÀndes lite öde. Restaurangen skulle vara öppen till kl 19 men personalen ville gÄ hem 18.30 sÄ vi fick skynda oss att Àta. Varmt vitt vin till maten, men mycket god Ceasarsallad. Frukosten var en frukosttallrik med bröd, Àgg, ost, skinka, yoghurt. Fint upplagd men ingen juice och vi fick frÄga efter smör. Vill inte bo dÀr igen för det priset. 1150:- Bra att vi fick parkera vÄra hojar under tak iaf.
