Good hotel with affordable prices

A simple, but good hotel. Very clean, nice staff, affordable prices. Breakfast is not that good. Bacon overcooked, ham, cheese etc was dried out and not very eatable. Check-in and checkout was very effective without all the stupid questions. Can really be recommended for a short stay

Small room, difficult to find electrical outtake. Smoking area outside that gives smell in the rooms near by. A shopping mall next door other than that very limited in area. Will stay in central Stavanger next time

Dag Martin, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Rommet var ikke bra. Lite ukoselig ø, ingen ting på veggene, dusjen så trang at er du lit kraftig er det vondt å komme seg in og ut av dusjen. Plasseringen av hotellet er bra med ett stort senter som nabo med flere spise alternativer. Frokosten på hotellet er ikke verd 195 kr.

Rimelig seng og dusj.

Bra beiggenhet. Rent rom. Enkel standard. Passer best til kun overnatting uten frokost. Sparsommerlig og dyr frokost buffe. Gratis parkering forand hotellet om det er lite gjester.
Tor, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Bra

Hotellet er rent, lite og effektivt. Tv lødningen er dårlig. Men det er dårlig med parkering for høy bil, og det er alltid noe galt på rommet. Sist lakk dusjen.
Egil, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Ikke noe luksusrom.

Rommet var kaldt uten mulighet til varme. Ovn virket ikke. Fjernkontroll til TV virket ikke. Senga var ikke dobbel som bestilt. Litt stor enkeltseng med tilgang kun fra en side.

4/10 Fair

Leider eine einzige Enttäuschung. Lediglich der junge Mann an der Rezeption war wirklich freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Einzelzimmer war das Geld definitiv nicht wert
