Good place to stay for a weekend

We were two girls staying for a little more than a weekend. The room was cozy and had a good kicthen with just enough supplies to make a good meal, close to nature and a good place to stay if your going by car.

Fantastiska rum, gamla arbetarbostäder från 1800-talet. Kaféet också det lysande, våffelparadis. Och frukosten för en knapp hundring var fantastisk den också. Bodde för konsert i Lokverkstan, tar några minuter att gå längs kanalen. Drömställe!

Personalet var utroligt hjælpsom og søde vi blev lidt skuffet da vi trådte ind i lejligheden vi følte os 50 år tilbage i tiden med kakkelovn og komfur men der manglede ikke noget og vi sov godt i sengene og så var det fantastisk at bo lige ved Gøtakanalen

Ett nytt smultronställe som vi hittade. Vackert beläget vid Göta Kanal utanför Motala. Personalen var trevlig och behjälplig. Rummet mysigt och enkelt, sängarna var helt ok. Hit kommer vi tillbaka.
