Nothing.

Nice location by the river. Paths to walk along the river, nice picnic benches outside the hotel. Centrally located.
We were told we could not leave our dog in the room even though he never barks and had to, therefore, cancel our plans for sightseeing. The toilet and plumbing were defect. The owner, or person in charge was helpful and we finally were offered to change rooms.

Nice place in the heritage port of Rjukan, close to city. Very friendly staff, room was clean. Coffy was served by the entrance even if you didn't order breakfast. Parking right outside the entrance 😀 good WiFi
Nothing to comment on.

Too expensive.

It is close to the town's center. Staff is nice.
The worst experience I had in any hotel in Norway. Unfortunately this was the only place that could be booked at that time and I had to get it. There's almost no reason to book a room in this place and here's why:
*There was old, rotten food in the fridge, which was turned off.
*The floors, walls and furniture were filthy. The last time the floor was washed was at least a month ago. There were dirt drips on the closet doors. The couch and chair had both brown and white stains all over them.
*One of the beds had a huge hole in the middle of the mattress due to how used it was.
*The hot water would take 10 minutes to come through.
*There were spiderwebs on the ceilings, a dead bug covered in dust on the windowsill, and the bathroom ceiling and ventilator were filthy
*Not all light bulbs work
*The internet is as good as no internet - it is almost impossible to watch a youtube video without interruptions
*Due to the poor maintenance, the doors to the whole building had to be slammed very hard and loudly in order for them to properly close.
*It's incredibly expensive for what it's worth. Sleeping in a tent would be a better choice
*Even if most people say that the breakfast is very good, I disagree. It's just decent. For half the money in Oslo I received a far superior breakfast experience.
*If it were clean, the property would have been just one of many "low-cost" and slightly worn out properties in Norway. Wouldn't be the first one with wonky doors or missing light bulbs. The big problem here is that it is NOT low cost.

Excellent location and view of town. Breakfast was ok - no more. But this was probably in part due to corona restrictions.
For some reason this guesthouse had decided not to install blinds or drapes in the room. This is no good when the suns sets at 3 and rises at 5 in summer. A bad nights sleep was not the ideal start to our mountain hike.
