Overall Score5.0/ 5
We stayed here for the 1st time. All staff were very helpful and friendly. Enjoyed the Jacuzzi and firepit one night and the lounge the second night. Hotel is close to Solvang and a casino as well as wine tastings and great restaurants. Nice place to stay when you want to go to Solvang but don't want to stay in Solvang.
