    It's a good place near the station when travelling by train. People are very kind. The beds are very confortable and the breakfast good. This area is very wild : typical norvegians mountains

    The self service kitchen poorly equipped - difficult to cook especially if more quests want to use it. Better to be prepared with some instant/quick to prepare options if you need to use it.

    Beautiful surrounding to explore Snohetta and Dovre national park. Comfortable room and good breakfast.

    Suitable for a one-night stay if you're passing through the area. The price-quality ratio is good. The breakfast had a very good selection. The service was slow (we had to wait for more pancakes, eggs, and bread), but everything was fresh, tasty, and nicely presented. The showers on the ground floor were renovated and clean.

    Would be great to have some cheaper rate for people traveling alone. There are also not many other options. I wouldn't mind having like a drom room shared with others for a cheaper price.

    Good breakfast and very close to train station. The musk ox safari is lots of fun.

    We arrived and there is no reception because they are closed from 10-15, but finally someone appeared and we got to leave our stuff until check in. Also breakfast on the second day had some not so fresh fruit and cold eggs.

    Nice structure of the hotel giving a cozy and comfortable vibe, very chill, no city noises just some sheep roaming around, lovely being in the middle of nature. There is a common fridge for guests which was very useful.

    The room seems to have been renovated, but not the toilets (private toilet would have been great, but ok, this is a low budget stay). Upper beds did not have lamps. Some hooks in the room would have been helpful.

    Good value for money. Beds and mattresses were good. Convenient location near the road. Good breakfast for this price range.

    The toilets and bathrooms were a bit far from the bedroom, but the place was heated so it was ok. Unfortunately I went there and the restaurant was closed.

    The location is really special and it has a very good value for money.

    My girlfriend and I shared a 6 bunk-bed room, which meant that the price was not super competitive. If we had been 4-6 travelling together, this place would have been perfect.

    Exceptionally clean showers considering the amount of people they serve. Clean rooms too. Very convenient location for exploring Dovrefjell national park. Very great value if you are a family or larger group travelling together.

    Some of the bedrooms haven't been renovated in a while but I heard they are planning to do so soon. It's not broken down but has a rustic charm to it.

    Extremely friendly staff, nice and modern lunchroom. 5 mins walk from train station.

    Slightly hard bed, very loud creaky stairs (didn't bother me because I'm a heavy sleeper but must be hard if you are a light sleeper)

    Nice food, great location and easy tie-in with the Musk ox safari

    It would have been nice if the beds had some reading lights. Also, pluggs for charging the phones was in hard to reach places. The dinner was overprised and not much variation. The bathrooms on our floor did not work, one had no seat, the other one had no light. There was no kitchen to prepare food for hikes, only a fridge. There were no hooks for our jackets in or outside of our room.

    The location is great, and we enjoyed the musk ox of safari. Breakfast was nice and divers. Showers were clean and comfortable.

    Breakfast was amazing, varied choice and fresh bread, cheese, fruits and hot food as well. Coffee was good to even though it was from a machine!

    Everything was great!

    We liked the clean, spacious rooms and the comfy beds. Also the shared bathroom facilities are great, more than enough, and super clean. Breakfast was very extensive and delicious: bread, eggs, yoghurt, cereals,pancakes, fruit, cheese, meet, fish and some local specialties. Staff is super helpful and friendly. And the location is great, close to the trails to explore the area. Totally recommended, we would definitely stay here again!
