uninspired buffetthin walls
The breakfast buffet was, let's say, uninspired. The platters looked rather sad with their meager offerings. my room had a view of.. a parking lot. how thrilling! and the walls? paper thin. i could hear my neighbors' lively discussions about the intricacies of lutefisk preparation. the price did not quite match the experience.

the cabin was a typical former fishing house. it was fully refurbished. i appreciated the nice views. it was also well equipped and heated for the winter season. i found it very clean too.
the room had a smell. it seemed to be coming from the bathroom sewage. the bed was soft. it was quite difficult to get a good night's sleep.

Cozy Cabin Escape

cozy seatingwell-equipped kitchencomfortable cabin
My Rorbu XL cabin was a delight. The well-equipped kitchen allowed for preparing small meals. The living area included cozy seating, a comfortable spot after a long day of exploring. The warmth of the cabin, especially during the chilly evenings.
The breakfast selection felt a bit limited.
