What Our Clients Say
“Wonderful views from my little balcony made this stay extra lovely for me. The service was impeccable when I was there, some remodeling occuring on neighbouring buildings, but not too much bother. Food was really tasty and the placement of the restaurant on the edge of the river was perfect. Comfortable bed.”
Anne Karen Stokke
