Remote & Quiet

This motel is in a quiet rural location. The room was large and had a wide view of the grassy back yard. There were all of the basic amenities, but they were not modern and there was a lot of deferred maintenance. This might be a nice place for those looking to enjoy some of the activities in the area. Also is a good place to stay for those looking to take the ferry to Denmark. But be sure to book your time on the ferry or you could spend all day waiting for an opening on the ferry. The continental breakfast buffet was not included with the room, but was reasonably priced and provided a very nice selection. Not a five star facility, but provided a quiet and comfortable night's sleep.

Schlechte Unterkunft

Die Unterkunft wahr schrecklich es lag noch Müll untern Schreibtisch Spinnweben überall. Großes Loch in der Tür Möbel könnten mal erneuert werden. Lärm von Betrunkenden. Und dafür 83 Euro viel zu Teuer. Nie wieder

Wir waren für eine Nacht da und ich muss sagen es hat mir gut gefallen. Was ich gesehen habe war sehr sauber, das Frühstück war übersichtlich, aber vollkommen ausreichend und das Personal sehr nett. Das einzige was etwas nervig war, war die Toilettentür. Sie quietschte nur vom ansehen und man traute sich nachts nicht auf Toilette, weil man Angst hat die anderen zu wecken. Aber alles in allem super

Helt okej för ett enklare stopp.

Helt okej för ett enklare stopp när man var på genomresa, kanske inget ställe man vill bo en vecka med familjen men skulle kunna bo där igen om det gäller en nattspaus. Fri WiFi var dock en tveksam sanning...fritt men ingen uppkopplingshastighet...

Basic stuff, but still somehow charming

Let's be honest, it really is a motel. The location is only good if you want to be there. Yet there's something charming about the place. It's also quiet. The rooms have everything you need if you don't need anything special. But it's a quiet place to have a good night of sleep. The breakfast (optional) is pretty basic as well, but then again it doesn't cost that much.
