My stay at the hotel was delightful due to its Scandi-style decor in the rooms and the excellent service provided. However, the dining experience was a bit lacking with limited breakfast options. The location offers beautiful nature watching experiences but could benefit from being closer to the fjord. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few minor downsides worth considering.
