Dejlig overnatning i hytte. Den var ikke prangende, sofaen trænger til udskiftning osv, men vi forventede heller ikke hotelstandard - og der var det, som vi havde brug for. Sød og venlig betjening, rent og pænt - og fantastiske omgivelser/beliggenhed. Vi kommer gerne igen.

En blandet fornøjelse

Vi rejste en familie med to børn under ti og havde lejet en stor hytte i tre dage. Vi ankom sent den første dag til en hytte, der var ved at få lagt tag. Der var stillads på hele langsiden og vi kunne ikke komme ind med bagage. Da de ufortrødent fortsatte med at hamre og banke efter vi havde fået løftet vores bagage ind over terressen og var begyndt at pakke ud, måtte vi tilbage til receptionen og bede dem, om at bede håndværkerne om at stoppe, da der ikke var til at være. De pakkede så sammen og fjernede heldigvis stillads foran indgangen. Desværre efterlod de en masse affald fra de shingles, som de havde sat op på hele terressen. Alt i hytten var beskidt: service havde madrester, i ovnen var der brændt en stor klump fast i bunden og ovnristen havde madrester brændt fast. Emhætten var meget fedtet, der lå støv på alle lamper, hylder og vindueskarme, og gulves var beskidt. Så vi gik i gang med at vaske og tørre af, mens en anden måtte til receptionen igen. De beklagede meget og bad os komme igen dagen efter - hvilket vi gjorde og de var meget lydhøre. De tilbød os gratis morgenmad dagen efter som kompensation og at vi selvfølgelig ikke skulle gøre rent efter vores ophold. Alt i alt var hytten rigtig dejlig, udsigten og området fantastisk og personalet utrolig behageligt - der var bare lige den flue i suppen, at vi måtte bruge den første aften først med larm, så på rengøring og renden frem og tilbage til receptionen.
