"This was a lovely place to stay. The staff were friendly and helpful at all times, breakfast and free teas and coffees were wonderful, as were all the waffles we bought. The guest kitchen meant we could feed ourselves cheaply in the evenings. We were skiing and the location was perfect for us - train platform on one side of the building to get us from and to the airport, buses on the other side to get us to the higher places where we could ski.

"Veldig hyggelig og imøtekommende personale. Vi bodde i Nordtunet 2. Hytten trenger oppgradering. Det var to kokeplater som fungerte svært dårlig, brukte 30 min på å steke en pølse. Veldig lytt mellom badet og rommet ved siden. Hodeputene var for litt for tykke. Pluss for god liggekomfort i de to enkeltstående sengene. Vi kommer gjerne tilbake, men vil da heller velge en av de oppussende leilighetene eller selve hotellet (evt en oppusset hytte). "
