We had a large, bright and airy room on the first floor - stairs to negotiate, and a great view. The room had an ensuite with views too! Such a nice change from staring at walls or inner courtyards out of hotel windows. There was a good table, two chairs, and armchair as well as a comfortable bed and room to hang clothes. We parked nearby the guesthouse (free) and walked into town for dinner. Great location but the hill is quite steep coming back up. Worth it for the views.

We were there for 1 night as a group of 6 people. Wonderful location! Very close to the center, walking distance to everything. The apartment itself is on the 3rd floor, there is no elevator. The apartment is very elegant, refined, clean and comfortable. Sometimes it was funny because it's on the top floor and there are slopes and tall people had to be careful with the slopes, but it wasn't a problem for us. The apartment has everything you need for your stay. We really enjoyed our stay there, thank you. We recommend!

Excellent spacious apartment. Plenty of towels and comfortable living space. Beautiful views over the fjord, we saw porpoise playing daily. Next door to a popular ice-cream palour. We walked from the airport and also into town easily, no public transport required. A 15 minute walk to the swimming baths and 30.min walk to the forest lagoon ( although some parts of the busy road didn't have paths so not really recommended!) Large tv with Netflix. We did hear a lot of noise upstairs but I'm sure they could hear us too, more the nature of the old house than the guests. Wasn't too keen on the doll in the pram but plenty of great decor never the less. A great stay.

    This lovely guesthouse is a gem. The rooms are clean, warm and cosy. But the best part of the stay is the lovely host Elisabeth. She offered to prepare us dinner, because the stay is away from any other restaurants. She allowed us access to the washer and drier, so we could clean and dry our bathing suits and towels. All the little handmade details, the selected decorations and dishes give this place a special soul. The breakfast was delicious also, with everything you could want. Would really recommend this stay.
