Egilsborg Guesthouse

An additional kr3,000 for bedding and kr4,000 to park for just a few hours doubled the cost of the stay.

Very average accommodation for the cost,

The owner was rude to us, the place is dirty and full of things in common areas

The owner is rude, not at all friendly, he was disrespectful, he does not comply with what he offers. I’d like cancel my reservation

The place is not adequately kept and looks terrible. I got many e-mails insisting on paying in cash and pushing me to pay for parking on the property when parking in the street and the area, as the whole country, is highly safe. She insisted so much that we paid even though we did not use it and left the car in another place. They also offered a drive to the airport and the driver was nice and courteous.

Nice location with great access to the city center and bus stop number 13. Nice staff and very responsive.

It was ok in cleanliness, nothing bad comes to mind but it was not the cleanest place i have been.

The room was ok, very basic (one pillow? Really?), but at least it was warm. The hostel was very very noisy, lots of partying downstairs, from the owners/managers of the hostel, not the people staying! I got minimal sleep last night. Free wifi was great, location great too. Shower facilities needs a massive makeover, old, grimy, cold.

Had a late arrival and was still greeted no issue. Only had one night and an early morning shuttle so did not have opportunity to follow up on the two issues. Unfortunately never got the key to work in the door and never found a towel to shower in the morning. Did find face cloths so managed a basic cleaning.

The hotel itself is not too bad. What I disliked about this hotel was the staff. The lady who works at the hotel swindled and coerced me into buying a trip to the airport. Because of the way she went about it, I believe she, or the hotel, maybe gets some type of commission or bonus for every trip they help them sell. This lady basically made me believe that this bus was the only option back to the airport. Right away she even “took the trouble” of “helping me” by getting on her laptop and ordering the ticket for me. When she asked me for my card, I of course very reluctantly gave her my card, only because I felt almost forced to believe her and that it would’ve been awkward telling her I wanted to shop around. Later on I found out I could’ve easily gotten on public transportation for less than half the price. I tried to return the ticket, the bus company told me I had to go through the hotel, when I did that, she told me that she had emailed the bus company but couldn’t get them to refund the ticket
