Verdde Hotel Lakselv

Spent two different Times 4 days on this Hotel. It is not fancy but ok, with a good location in the centre of the village of Lakselv. The room has shower, toilet and waterkettle. Breakfast included is very modest. Maybe two high price for value, so we have chosen different location after last Time.

One of the most bizarre experiences. Checked in on a Thursday afternoon for 4 days, paid up. Staff were there, customers eating and a few at the bar on Thursday night. On Friday after a day exploring, I found a note on the door and everything shut. I managed to find a back door open and spent the next two nights in the hotel all by myself; no staff, no food, heating had been turned off i think as it was getting colder inside every day.

This place was hard to find with navigator, but it's located on main street (not the back street!) next to Statoil. Breakfast was very limited, and room design was almost vintage 80's. Bathroom was ok. There is a quite popular bar downstairs. I think this is pricey, but hey, Norway is..

Every year when I stay a weekend in Lakselv, which is the name of the place, I use this "hotel". It's a pub, restaurant with rooms. It's clean and nice and in the very center of Lakselv. You have to pay for the internett and that service is very poor. Even the hotel admitted it this time and they would do something with it. I have been using this place at least 7 or 8 times now and find it ok. No posh place.

We booked a room to spend the night. Of all hotels I've been in, this is one of the worst. I don't even know where to begin. The front desk and the restaurant looks great. It's a good first impression. But then.. The hallway doesn't look good. There are trash in the corridor. Other guests said it has been there for days. Carpet is full of stains. On top of the door or the elevator it looks like there was a leak once. That still is very visible. But that's ok. It's not where we are sleeping anyway. Then the room. It's very bad air. There's no ventilation so the only way to get fresh air it to open the windows. Bathroom look like the last time it was fixed up was in the 70's. Its dirty, your feets stick to the floor of you don't wear shoes. The bathtub don't have a front panel, so you can see right in under it. The toilet is not attached to the floor, be careful so it doesn't fall over. Lamps and floor are full of dust. We didn't check anywhere else. The covers on the bed are dirty. There's brown stains. Also here are the carpet dirty with stains. Worst of all, there are silverfish on the floor. The ones that crawls into your clothes and baggage, and come with you home. The ones you need an exterminator to get rid of. At night the restaurant is use as a bar where people are partying. The next day the restaurant is where the breakfast is served. Only thing is it's not being cleaned between those two. There are dirty tables from the night before. Bathrooms not cleaned, with stains everywhere. At breakfast the eggs are hardly fried. They're still raw. Other food is great. Still all I can say is; Stay away!
