I would have preferred if you had told me that you were doing construction everywhere before I booked TWO rooms for 4 adults. Noisy flapping white tarps and ZERO views from any of the windows of BOTH rooms I rented.

it is a great property, but while the advertisement said a restrauant, it was not working and a big problem to go down the steep hill to town which did not have any great restrauants.

Nice place.

Nice views of the area. Hotel was nice and good breakfast. Be aware that if yiu have alot of luggage that you can not drive the car to reception. So you will need to carry your baggage from the car park. No problem fir myself but may cause issues to ither people.

Verdt et besøk

Flott beliggenhet midt i festningsområdet. Greit rom, grei frokost. Slapp mottagelse i resepsjonen, dårlig med opplysninger, virket svært lite profesjonelt, på grensen til utrivelig. Supert å gå tur rundt på festningen. Anbefales. Morsom omvisning i fengselsmuseet.
