8/10 Good
"Unfortunately they had an internet outage the day we arrived and had accidentally given the room away that we booked. They found a solution that worked for us. The meals were excellent at the restaurant. The view was amazing. The rooms were OK. They have a hot tub but it’s very expensive to reserve (1400nok) and they make you reserve for two hours, so we did not see it get any use while we were there. I wish it had been more reasonable, we had a very physical day before our arrival and would have appreciated the ability to soak especially since the bathroom showers are small, and the water temperatures not consistent."

Holiday Home in Olden

Holiday Home in Olden

8/10 Good
"The cabin is great and quiet w/ a great view on the surrounding mountains (hence the “good” overall score). However a few points of disappointment which need to be improved: 1- We met 2 staff members and both barely spoke English, although the check-in instructions (Dan Center) said that staff can speak Norwegian, English and German. The 1st person was friendly though and showed us the cabin. 2- More problematic: there are unclear/hidden fees not documented on Expedia web site nor on the specific check-in instructions we received from Dan Center: linens, towels. For the electricity, the 2nd person we met asked us to pay an amount not at all in line with what is documented on Expedia web site (0.15 Euro/kWh). Also we were very careful to turn off the lights and the heaters at night and during the day when we were not there. When I asked the 2nd person for an explanation for the electricity fee, he was not able to explain it to me in English and I didn’t have time to go through a Google Translate conversation. And he asked us to pay in cash, although the specific check-in instructions said we could pay any incidentals by credit card. So at the very minimum Expedia needs to clearly document these various fees (linens, towels, electricity) for this property to avoid any bad surprise afterwards."
