Stayed at Fosshotel Baron for 7 nights, excellent location close to everything bus stops, attractions, shopping, ocean. Nice size room with mini fridge and comfortable beds. Very hot water which is nice for showering after long trips in the cold weather. Very nice breakfast, i would rate breakfast above average and much better selection then in other countries. Appreciated healthy options such as dry fruits, nuts, yogurts, fresh fruits. Good coffee. I had nice views of the ocean and mountains from my room. Very happy and recommend, will stay again.
