How could you not love being at the end of a mountain pass with a waterfall on one side and a glacier on the other. During the day, lots of people but at night very quiet and peaceful. Good value, basic accomodations. Drive up and back off the main road were awesome. Glad we made the trip.

The end of the glacier road, allowing for an early start to visiting the glacier (we didthe glacier safari on an inflatbale boat, which was fun). Excellent value for Norway - large rooms and bathrooms, very clean but basic. No phone or TV. Free internet in cafeteria. Basic breakfast (by Norwegian standards). Call ahead if you are coming late.

Other places were booked but saw this mentioned in a travel book. Found comments to be fairly accurate with it being mainly a restaurant at the end of the road from Olden catering to tourists to the Briksdal glacier. So I already wasn't going in expecting 5-star accomodations. Price was right and location perfect for hikes to explore the Jostedal glacier area. You check in at the restaurant. There are 6 rooms behind it down a ramp under the souvenir shop that are the "hotel" rooms (so you do get covered parking). Newer, fairly big and clean rooms with good size bathrooms. Don't expect room service and also no TV or phone. Cafeteria-style restaurant and dinners were good with reasonable NO prices (will still seem expensive to US-tourists). Simple European-style breakfast was included. Had the place to myself being the only guest staying there. Only negative was restaurant closing at 5pm being near end-season (open May-Sep), but think it's open later like until 9pm during their high-season.
