Dragesmauet Apartments
"Apartment is very nice and as described. Communication with the owners is spotty at best. Even following the directions in the guest guide only resulted in one response to one question. When I enquired about an item left behind, there was no response at all."

Radisson Blu Royal Hotel, Bergen
"No rooms available as hotel close due to strike. Hotel cancelled rooms 2 days before check in. Had to book last minute at different hotel and paid high price for rooms with very little choice. Radisson made very poor management on their part to leave guests in this situation."
