Tack för ert vänliga bemötande i ert mysiga och fräscha pensionat! Hit kommer jag gärna fler gånger. Är även väldigt smidigt med mobilnyckeln. Gillar även utererassen och att pensionatet ligger så nära centrum. Kan varmt rekommendera detta!

Booking through a third-party website, I was initially booked into this motel's annex, which proved to be a disastrous experience. See my review of Villan Annexet. When workers finally showed up on Monday morning, I had breakfast at the buffet, which was small but adequate. After eating, I asked to speak to Nina, the lady I'd talked to on Saturday (and learned that no one worked at the motel or annex on the weekends). I explained how I'd been left high and dry, in accommodations that were inadequate and sub-par, and left me totally isolated from the world with no cell phone or the promised wi-fi. I expected an argument or serious discussion, so I was completely amazed when she offered a very sincere apology. And it was obvious that she'd not dealt with U.S. customers before as she was completely unaware that U.S. cell phones do not work in Europe or Scandinavia, so she had no idea I was unable to make any contacts, including calling her, except for the wonderful kindness of strangers. She then asked if she could try to make it right by moving me into the main hotel, for the same rate as the annex, for the remainder of my stay. I agreed. What a complete turn-around. My new room was huge, with a very large bath. It was also very quiet and extremely clean. Unlike the annex room, this one did have a fan for cooling, it had the information as to how to connect to wi-fi, and it had information regarding the motel and Mellerud in both Swedish and English! Thus my disastrous first two nights in Mellerud, turned into very pleasant ones for my next four nights. I cannot thank Nina enough for her gracious apology and kind offer to make it right. It's what we all expect businesses to do, but which, unfortunately, they rarely do without a huge fight. By the way: the free wi-fi was excellent. Notes: There is no taxi service in Mellerud ... unless you contact the motel about a week in advance to book something; there are no workers at the establishment during weekends (except the month of July); the restaurant is not open for dinner until July; you enter the motel through the restaurant entrance, and the check-in is at the end of the bar; although the third-party booking site took my American Express card information it failed to inform me that this motel does not accept AmEx. The only thing that saved my bacon was my Visa debit card.

I booked this through a third-party booking site. It was NOT made clear that this is an annex to the one true hotel in Mellerud. Neither the third-party site nor the establishment bothered to inform me that there is no taxi service in Mellerud (unless, as I later learned, you prearrange a week in advance)! Thus I arrived on a very warm day, and faced a more than mile walk. About half-way there, I stopped in a convenience store to double-check directions and a customer there graciously offered to give me a ride. I'd not have found it otherwise. The main entrance to the hotel is through their restaurant, which was closed (Saturday, about 1:00), so the gentleman dropped me off at the "second" entrance. I went inside and found no one there. I sat there for about 2-hours just trying to quit sweating, and no one showed up. Intending to go outside, I discovered that the only reason I got in was because someone else had not shut the door completely! I was reluctant to leave until I found something to prop the door open. After doing so, I then walked across the street to where three workers were taking down scaffolding from a building they'd been working on. One gentleman suggested I try the main door, so I did. There I found a note, taped to the inside of the door, asking me to call one of three folks. I'm from the U.S., our cell phones don't work in Sweden! I walked back to the workers (after copying the first phone number) and asked where I could find a phone. The worker graciously dialed me the number and handed me his personal phone. The lady who answered (Nina) was nice and I explained that I'd been waiting for about 3-hours for someone to show up and she said that no one works at the facility on the weekends (!!) except in July. She then directed me back to the room I'd first entered, and in the mailbox by the door, she told me to reach in for an envelope. That contained the room key and room number. Only it was not in the hotel. Instead she asked me to walk to the end of the motel, stand facing the garage, and asked me to see the house (on the next street) immediately behind the garage. That's where my room was. Also, my key would let me back into the room I'd first gone into at the motel, where the foods in the refrigerator were for my breakfast on Sunday. I gathered my things and went to my "room" in the 2-story house. I was upstairs in a large room which was very clean, with two twin beds. Sweden was experiencing a heat wave and the house had no air conditioning (common) and NO fan to move air. The room faced west so the heat build up was horrific. Even though I opened the door fully, the good breeze was blowing south and kept trying to close the door, thus not letting much air into the room. Another surprise was when I found that the room did not have a private bath, but a shared bathroom. As it happened, I was the only person staying there at the time, but someone had been there that morning and left the bathroom sort of a mess. I was not a happy camper. While promised free wi-fi, there was NO information in Swedish or English about how to access it, and the only sheet of information in the room was in Swedish. Thus I was left Saturday and Sunday with no means of communicating with the outside world. My breakfast featured typical bread, meat, cheese and veggies for open faced sandwiches and fruit juice. There was a coffee maker, coffee and sugar ... but NO source of water! If it had not been for the good fortune (and kindness) of the workers across the street, I'd have either slept on the couch in the first room I was able to enter in the motel, or I'd have gone in search of a phone to call the police. Things were salvaged on Monday: See my review of the hotel Wardshuset Pa Dal. If I had intentionally booked a hostel, this would have been fine ... but I was expecting a motel room and was in a very unpleasant surprise.
