“The location stands out, especially for those using the Moss-Horten ferry; it's hard to argue with that convenience. Updated rooms and the breakfast service are pluses, along with unique dining themes, but some experiences are more consistent than others, based on the location in the structure. In my opinion, this hotel offers a mixed bag of convenience and potential.”
