Kulturhistorisk goding

Mycket bra boende centralt i Alfta. När till Edsbyn. Prydligt och en väl förvaltad kulturbyggnad. Väldigt god frukost. Trevlig personal och allt fungerade enligt avtal.

God frukost, trevligt bemötande men tråkiga rum o tråkig standard på badrum. Rummen känns mer som en institution än ett mysigt gästis
