För friskusar

Lågbudgetställe för friskusar. Otroligt obekväma översängar - ej för vuxna. Otroligt dyrt med middag och aktiviteter som rafting och badtunna. Stort kök om man vill göra egen mat.

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!

Helt supert

Kjempe god service. God mat, fin avstand til mye aktiviteter. Rom var helt ok. Pluss at det var dyrevennlig. Det eneste som var negativt var vanntrykket og manglende mulighet til å styre temp i dusjen, men det gikk greit hvis du sto lenge nok.

It was a lovely place to stay with very friendly hosts near Otta and Rondane Park. Fantastic breakfast was included in our booking. I recommend this place. They also organize rafting.

Stille og rolig

Hostel skal være enkelt, men funksjonelt. Slik sett som forventet, men det blir litt trekk for herpet dusjforheng og dorullholder.

4/10 Fair

Dårlig opplevelse i flott landskap

Mye støy fra hytter eller camping. Brannalarmanlegg fungerte ikke, det ulte i en brannalarm store deler av natten. Ingen informasjon underveis. Det ble heller ikke tatt ansvar for å få den høylytte festen avsluttet. Dette var veldig dårlig av de ansatte/verter.

Enkel overnattingsplass i landlige omgivelser

Enkel plass, ikke alt var ok da vi kom. Men når vi sa i fra ble en vesentlig feil med rommet ordnet umiddelbart = god service. Fin eiendom.

Good base for exploration

Accommodation is perfectly suited to use as a base for exploring the area. Close to a couple of rafting companies and not too far a drive from town.

An idyllic hostel in the hills

The hostel is in a beautiful area with plenty of opportunity for outside activities such as walking and there is water rafting available on site. The facilities are ideal for a quiet break with the opportunity to either use the self catering facilities or the limited hotel menu and bar. There is a good breakfast provided and I would definitely return when I am next in the area.
