Our family of five stayed here in January 2017. Like so many other guests the private family accommodation we were promised over the phone was mysteriously not available when we arrived. The owner said he could only provide accommodation with a bathroom shared by other guests which was not what we’d booked. Another guest turned up in the middle of the night and took a room next to our teenage children who couldn’t sleep due to him leaving his door open & snoring loudly. The place was very dirty and if we hadn’t arrived late at night we would have cancelled our booking and stayed elsewhere. To make a bad experience even worse the owner talked about religion non-stop!! This is the worst accommodation experience we’ve ever had and like so many other travellers we were ripped off! This dishonest guy should not be allowed to continue in the accommodation business! 

Worst accommodation ever experienced anywhere! 

Best to call the owner and make the reservation, not via internet pages!! 

Positive: 
friendly and humorous owner
large and clean rooms, peaceful surroundings
good wifi
good and sufficient breakfast
washing machine in the bathroom

Negative: 
far from the restaurants - only pizzeria in that small village. 
The owner speaks about religion and God for customers. 
There was not so many kitchen utensils and cutlery so bring ready meals with you. 
No microwave oven. Big and large electric stove.

Peaceful B&B out in the countryside. Call them for making the reservation don't make it in internet!

We were a group of 4 people travelling around Denmark and we needed an apartment, so we made a reservation in accordance with our necessity. 

The day we were supposed to check in in the evening we received a call from the owner telling us he could not grant as an apartment, even though we had made a proper reservation. He said he had been trying to contact us since the day before but unsuccessfully. Even though this being true, we had problems with our mobiles the day before (no credit and there was no place we could not top up yet, and you need some credit when you are abroad to receive international calls).

By the way, this has never never been a problem when you have a reservation made through an agent company. Never before we bumped into this situation.

So we were informed by the owner he could not grant us the booked apartment, as he could not reach us (!!!!) and this ended up in the cancelation of our reservation. 

Once there he offered us a room with a private toilet and shower outside the room - our bathroom in the apartment was one of the reason we had booked an apartment. He promised that the bath would be for our exclusive use only, that he would warn the other guests about, but this turned up NOT TO BE TRUE. So we ended up having a shared toilet and shower.

We wish we could have moved else where but we had no chance nor time by him to find another place as everything needed to be solved on the spot. 
Worse thing, he asked us to cancel the reservation made through the agent ourselves, as the apartment was not anymore the accomodation he could offer us. We know that, In this case, of course, he would not have shown up guilty, because it would be our choice to cancel the reservation, and, more than that, he would not have received negative feedbacks later on (this is why I come up and warn you here, and see our experience has not been his first time ever for a very annoying and disappointing behaviour). We were forced to cancel the reservation made through the agent because of the circumstancies to have a place where to sleep during the night.

By the way the place is not that clean as well - hair found in the shower, sticky breakfast table are just an example - and the organization of the spaces is quite "arranged" at the very last minute.

This man is trying to convince you he is doing this for your best, the fact is he is not complying to what he offers and therefore I believe is not a loyal host.

We had a reservation but the requested room was not available before getting there

Well... Lost for words... Discovered this gem too late really. Should of booked it right from the beginning of our tour. The owner was so friendly. Could not of done enough for all of us. (15). Arrived there mid evening.  Within 10 minutes the BBQ was lit. Joined in our group. Etc. Things we did not have were offered to us. Breakfast supplied. All fresh. Rooms/appartments self suffucient. Could not of asked for more. Would we go back. ?YES! 

Fantastic..

Very disappointing experience: when we arrived the surroundings looked quiet and nice. Perfect for people who enjoy walking like us, but all went wrong the moment we entered that little gate.

We had to wait some time until the owner finally turned up, even though we called him three hours in advance (not just one like he asked on the booking). He did not mention any problems over the phone, but the moment he walked in he announced there was actually a double booking and another couple was occupying the room we booked since the day before. Would have been nice if he just told us before our arrival. He promised to give us something better ONLY if we cancelled our booking via our official agency. When we asked why he gave a shady explanation about this agency and how they are the reason for our trouble. He ignored the questions we had and just talked about everything you could see in the the neighbourhood and about a befriended pizza place close by. Suddenly he announced we had to pay right then and there and when my husband gave his Master Card; he just told us ONLY CASH. We had even more questions after that, but he kept ignoring everything and just gave us some general directions to an ATM and sent us on our way. He added some extra to the price without properly announcing that. When we asked why he changed his story from exchange rate to breakfast upgrade and some other vague things.

The room we booked was with a private bathroom, but what he gave us - remember he promised SOMETHING BETTER, especially after the unannounced price raise - was an unfinished room, cables everywhere, badly aired and just big enough to fit the two beds in a communal part: shared bathroom, everyone could enter our room, no privacy, no way to lock the door. He kept on talking: about drugs, about fraude, about his faith (Jehovah's witness),... It felt like he was just buying time so he was sure we could not go somewhere else. On the other hand this gave us a very uneasy feeling; story's about Polish friends involved with drugs and in the prison system are not the story's you share with your new guests if you are any kind of professional, it almost felt like intimidation. Especially because he has a lot of Polish friends permanently living over there as well, between his guests. 

Late in the evening he "disappeared". One by one his Polish friends came up to our room to "look for him" and this made us even more uneasy. We were not able to lock our doors and sleeping like that was almost impossible. We felt so scared we just started to pack all our stuff back together an put it in the trunk of our car. We only kept a toothbrush and some underwear in the room. The next day he was nowhere to be found, so we could not ask for another room or complain about the filthy kitchen or because no breakfast was served, but we paid in advance for it so you could say we've gotten ripped off.

After two days he appeared again, when we told him no breakfast was served he just told us it was not included - always in his way to friendly overacting way of course. Nothing we could do about it: he didn't gave us a biljet when we paid and he forced us to cancel our first booking via the agency, so we had no way put down a complaint over there either. Nothing we could do about it. Suddenly he started talking about adding some extra days to our stay, what we found very strange because he was complaining about all these double bookings and the amount of guests. We declined, we just wanted to go home after this horrible experience. 

This place looks like a sham business: only cash, guests in unfinished rooms "double booked" with permanent guests, story's about drugs and prison, we did not get what we paid for,... He's probably not only ripping of his guests he also abuses online booking agency's. We reported him to the agency, hopefully they will take care of it. Never again!!!

Never Again

we went there for  a short break as a couple. first night our beds were single, when we requested double ad second night we were conned into sleeping on floor. propritor promised to give us other room before we went out on the second night but when we returned to the B & B we only found mattresses on floor. propritor was no where to be found so cold not complain. the tird day when we were leaving there was nobody around either. no breakfast was served on any day. money was asked from us as soon as our feet touched the inside of hostel. no shoes were allowed in as other people have mentioned. propritor is an active Jehovah's witness and talks to guests about religion to try to change their opinion. we think he shouldn't be allowed to con people with his sham business
