"Just a good hotel with lovely staff"

"Breakfast is really nice! Room is cozy and the sauna and gym has a very beautiful view of tromso. "

"A little difficult finding the correct building upon arriving on Sunday. A very nice local pointed us in the right direction. Quiet area of town. Very new, clean, apartments. Easily walkable. Comfortable beds. Good internet. Minimalistic. Nice to have a washing machine. Great bus system to get to some of the sights. "

"3bed house was a great choice. Wonderful waterfront views. Parking and charging was very easy and right by the property we had. No wifi but 5g worked fine. Remote, rural location. The restaurant at the property is good but nothing else for miles. We self catered in part. "

"Second day room not cleaned, lobby told me need hang the sign "clean my room", Third day we hanged sign, but still not cleaned, then lobby said we need inform them... so our room no more clean, dirty towels piled up, trash can full..."

"Bel établissement, idéalement situé en pleins centre ville. Propreté et confort était au rendez-vous. Néanmois il manquerait dans l'espace publiques ou les chambres un frigo ou micro-ondes pour se restaurer convenablement "

"The room was comfortable and clean - very warm and cosy. The bed is quite soft and they gave me two pillows - one normal and one massive - which actually made sitting up and reading in bed very comfy. The duvet was quite thick for the summer, but that might just be me.The windows do a really good job of blocking out noise from the outside. I had a single room with its own bathroom - there was ample space for me. Yes, the towel rail is over the loo, but the rooms are compact so I am not really sure where else they would put them. My only complaint about the room is the lack of space for me to put my clothes. As I was staying for a week, I wanted to unpack and had to just stack all my stuff on the desk in the room provided. Not a huge hassle, just a thing. Certainly not severe enough to reduce the stars. Breakfast was good. Lots of variety, really nice fresh bread, and the staff were good at keeping everything topped up. For me though, the best thing was the location. It's really central with everything you need within a five/ten minute walk. I have read some of the comments about the lack of tea/coffee facilities etc. but that is clear in the room description so I don't know what people were expecting. Overall, I was really happy with my stay and would definitely use them again. "

"The staff was great. You need to know to ask for a spot with a vehicle charger if you have an electric car. If it is hot out, you will be hot as there is no A/C. We did not leave the window open because of the concert outside and the sea gulls in the morning (would be too loud). The shower is very small. Breakfast is traditional and nice."

"Very clean and comfortable hotel. Easy to have dinner and breakfast. Nice view and location. Would recommend to my friends if they visit Sommaroy."
