Bra hotell for folk på ferie
Et bra hotel med det en trenger, men nå på sommeren så åpner ikke frokost før kl. 07.30 dette er alt for dårlig for alle som er på jobb reise, vi var 10-15 stk som stod å ventet på at det skulle åpne og det var ikke snakk om å få slippe inn litt før🙈😡

Litt vel mye luft i ventilasjon inn på rommet da vi hadde små barn der og baby! Så ble ikke så komfortabelt på rommet.. babyen var kald da hun våknet på natta.. reiste hjem 1 dag før tiden.. skulle ha 2 netter, ble bare 1 desverre.

Behagelig opphold.
Vi hadde et behagelig opphold. Rent rom og bad. Deilig frokost. Stille og rolig, selv om det var mange gjester.

Ferietur
Brukt Ernst mange ganger - og kommer til å gjøre det igjen. Rolig. God seng, Stort bad. God frokost - i rolige omgivelser. Fin service i resepsjon. Sentralt.
Rommet vi hadde var veldig lite og dobbeltsengen var smal. Så er det noen år siden hotellet ble renovert - noe som sees enkelte steder.

Kaldt rom
Sov dårlig i for hard seng. Rommet var kaldt og det var ikke mulig å stille varmen. Det tok hotellet tre netter og ikke få til og reparere dette. Vi fikk ekstra poeng, men ville heller hatt et behagelig opphold
