This facility is not staffed. They send you an email with codes to get into the building and into your room. The room was a bit small with a small round table for a desk (barely laptop size) and a chair. The beds were two twins pushed together. Breakfast was a bag stored in the fridge of a cheese sandwich, banana, yogurt, apple juice (or orange juice). However, there was some cereal there and you could make your own coffee/tea and porridge. Toilets and showers are central (separate lockable doors for each toilet and each shower). Robes and slippers are provided. Location has a view of the mine from the breakfast area and is walkable to the mine museum and underground tour pickup point. There is a nearby trail to hike around the mine.

Wake up by a Unesco-herritage!

If you want to wake up by a Unesco-herritage this is the place, next to Falu copper mine. It is also in the same area as the copper museum, the mine and local restaurants in old style Swedish red wooden houses. Good breakfast, friendly staff, comfy beds. Good to bring is a bathrobe, since WC and shower is placed in the hallway. Extra bonus, there is a sauna. We had a very pleasant stay.

Mycket trevligt ☺️även om vi inte träffade någon personal så fungerade allt perfekt. Frukostpåsen var god också. Kanske priset borde justeras lite nedåt om man ska ha en synpunkt.

Trevligt B&B med mycket omsorg om detaljerna, Fint mottagande och all information man behöver. Saknade möjligen ett mysigt rum där man kunde umgås, den stora festsalen är inte riktigt så mysig.
