Since the area is very safe, even though our room was on the ground floor, it felt very clean and comfortable. Bottled water was provided, and we didn’t have any problems during our stay. You can also walk to the town of Solvang for a nice stroll. It’s very quiet at night, which makes it even more wonderful. This is definitely a place I would love to stay at again.
