good location. room was ok. shared bathroom could use some renovation, especially, for a start, come on, just use some regular soap, not that hospital stuff. Staff couple was really friendly and helpful. Thank you very much! All in good deal.

Arrived a bit late in the evening so got the last room available ( we did have a reservation) and it was TINY compared to all the others, and with a smaller bed. Got no compensation for this. Also got no info on arrival. Otherwise ok.

We arrived at this place at 2.30 am, looking forward to a good nights sleep after a long journey, having booked well in advance. Howeverm we were told by the young man on duty \\"sorry we have no rooms, there was a mistake in the booking...go and find a party to go to and come back in a few hours and we might have a room". We went and found somewhere else to stay, at much greater cost to ourselves. Do not go near this place.

Guesthouse Egilsborg is tidy and facilities work properly. Very good breakfast. Guesthouse is centrally located, yet I found it reasonably quiet at night. Staff was straightforward and honest with me.

Great location, tour bus pickups worked well there also. Breakfest was good. They could get some hooks to shower room for clothes. We loved our stay and price is right.
