Eikum Hotel

As the other reviewers have already written: it was getting old. The carpet in my room was very worn. The furnishings in the room were coordinated. At first glance, the room was clean, but unfortunately on the last day something rolled under the bed and there were some paper towels there. The terrace was freshly cleaned and the garden was well-kept. An item found in the cupboard (from the previous guest in the room?) was not cleared away by room service, even though I had put a note with this request next to it (in English and in Norwegian using an online translation program). When I took it to reception, the junior manager immediately apologized for the inconvenience. There were a few mold stains in the bathroom, which are probably structural and unavoidable. Breakfast was very "British" with fish in sweet and sour and sweet mustard sauce. Packed lunches were available for 70 NOK. Dinner was youth hostel-like: there was meat and sauce, both fine. The potatoes were bought cheaply (some of them were sweet or brown inside), but mostly OK. The completely unseasoned frozen vegetables were half raw on the first day and partly raw and lukewarm on the second. The soup was from a packet, but an effort had been made to round it off a bit. Dessert was always a pudding with whipped cream. On the last day, the food was actually delicious: salmon, rice, salad and mustard sauce. The very young employees were very friendly, as was the junior manager. Only the senior manager always pulled a grumpy face and didn't seem to speak very friendly to the employees. The lake near the hotel is great: in just a few minutes you can be at a small beach and in summer you can swim. The Spar directly in front of the hotel is also pleasant.

We had a bad experience in the room, not so with the food, apparently it was the last one in the hallway on the first floor and they must not have used it at all (old tube TV (CRT) with remote control not working, dead batteries not use), the carpet gave us two severe episodes of allergies, with shortness of breath, which was repeated two hours later (1am and 3am), we had to open the windows and spend the night like that, breathing from outside. a real scare that almost ruined our trip. THE CARPETS IN THE ROOMS THAT ARE NOT USED NEED TO BE THOROUGHLY CLEANED.

Pleasant hotel located in a large, lively town. The location is ideal for a leisure stay, with the lake in the heart of the village and all the sports and outdoor activities on offer. The hotel is well maintained and the services are of a very good standard.
