literaly they don't let you check in until 4 pm even if your room is ready because they want you to pay a fee to check in early. After a 10 hour flight I got there at 3:30 and I had to wait until 4pm to get my room. I never saw any people cleaning or vacuum or cleaning the place. The carpet was fillty. Breakfast was good, the person at the counter was very pleasant. They don't clean your room, after I requested the service for 5 days, I stayed there just one time they came to clean my room.

Avoid if you travel by car

Room, staff and breakfast were all good but you will get fine from the outside parking eventough you pay for it. Plus the chargers outside didn’t work so I had to pay for the garage aswell. Whole parking ended up costing 1000 NOK plus the time spent on writing a complaint to the parking firm. Staff was nice but unable to do anything to the parking situation, which was a bummer.

The hotel was lovely, modern and the staff were great. Daily room service was available if you want it. And a good range of options for breakfast buffet. Main downside is the beds were really uncomfortable- we booked a queen bed and got two single beds pushed together.
