Nice location near the sea, but the grumpy man in the reception killed that advantage fast. And when I had to change rooms to be able to get some wireless internet (which actually didn't work very well in the second room either) I wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone. When there's storm outside, it would be nice to stay in the room and surf the net to kill time (business traveller). The rooms are old and need to be freshned up. If the weather is nice, Ålesund is a beautiful city and then you'd just sleep there and that would be ok. Anyway, I would rather go for one of the other hotels in Ålesund - in case the weather is bad (as it often is).
