Super cool & great place
Totally retro, like stepping back into the 1970th , retro perfection with decorative originals from the decade - even the.type of phone I had in my as a child.
Very welcoming staff, good food - however no big breakfast available at the time of our stay.
The hot tub and saune worked well.

Enjoyed our stay, only thing in the actual room itself was that there was no ability to turn off the fan in the shower which caused the room to be extremely dry and I had a hard time resting due to my allergies and nose bleeds.
Loved visiting the inlet and using the facilities in the hotel. Bike rental was extremely convenient as well - highly recommend as an activity for a day.
