We were met by the boat from Håholmen on time. The driver was welcoming and seemed genuinely friendly. It took a few minutes only in the power boat to the skerry/islet. Upon arrival we were welcomed by reception. Efficient check in and also a friendly greeting. The 'room' was a wood cabin. The view from our room on one side, was completely blocked in and in shadow from the high stone embankment and no view was possible - the other, any view of the sea was almost completely obscured by other cabins. Cabin itself was 'basic' but clean . No TV in the room - I can understand this probably doesn't fit in with the intended experience by the management but there was not a great deal to do here and watching TV might have given a modicum of relief from the ennui. If you are not lucky with the weather here, it can be very depressing. Dinner was pre-booked by the hotel - you have to cancel it if you don't want to eat in their restaurant. Since eating in their restaurant is the only option if you don't want the hassle of travelling to the mainland you have just come from, we decided to try it. This is where service fell way below what I expected. The staff were friendly enough but they didn't know what they were doing. First, I wasn't happy with the choice of meal ; it was either klipfisk or salad. That was the choice. If you had the salad the main ingredient wasn't available. Also, the choice of dessert was a grand total of one choice and this was a sweet accopmanied by ice cream except they didn't have any ice cream. The fish meal took one hour and fifteen minutes to arrive (there were very few people in the restaurant) and when it did arrive it was nothing special - tastless, meagre fish portion with style over substance its main attribute. I enquired why it had taken so long and the waiter said there had been a ' few problems'. I am not a big eater but I was left still feeling hungry. The worst of it was you couldn't even order a burger or anything else not even chips - it was the set menu of a sald or fish and that was it. There was no atmosphere in the restaurant as the place was almost empty. I would advise against eating here. I went to the pub the second night to get a nightcap at 15 minutes before closing . I asked the barman from Czech Republic for a beer. He refused saying he was shut. I said 'you are open until eleven, aren't you?' and he said 'yes' . Then he explained that he had cashed up the till. No offer to put a drink on my room , nothing. The main thing that upset me was the barman was so proud that he had cashed up early and din't seem to realise that if you say you are open until eleven that doesn't mean you shut it fifteen minutes early. One more thing, I asked for a second key so we could have one each. The second key didn't work . In conclusion, this was a regrettable experience. Terrible, slow, unprofessional service in the restaurant and bar with a terrible service offering. To make matters w
