Old world Nordic charm
A small and charming hotel. Parking is a bit of an issue as it's offsite. Room was small but clean. Lousy view of a rockface. But comfortable. Choose it as it's on way to Torp Airport. Solid. Pretty. But lacks a wow factor

Small bathroom, but still good
Very nice only downside was the basic and very small bathroom. Good selection at breakfast too, which is an improvement on the scandic standard options.
