Rjukan Hytteby

This was an OK place to stay but after four weeks of travelling it was the least impressive. The main reason for this was that the floor was dirty - evident when some of this dirt coated the lid of my suitcase. As a cabin with a kitchenette it should also have a microwave oven.

Unfortunately the cottages are equipped with a very narrow, steep staircase with irregularly shaped steps that leads to the mezzanine where the beds are located. During the night I slipped from the ladder and this required me to return home and check myself in hospital due to very serious bruises on my back, consequent reduction in mobility and a 15-day prognosis. The reception (in a fast food restaurant open from 11am to 11pm) was closed and there was no possibility of getting help. The ladder is definitely illegal and dangerous for adults and even more so for children. We add that the cottage was dirty and that a supplement of NOK 175 per person is required for the sheet kit and a single towel. Lack of pots and therefore you can't use the kitchen. No possibility to have breakfast. Traumatic and sad experience.
