I would like to address the one star review that's been posted by "John" (I unfortunately can't directly reply to it). I want to stand up for Anne and Moritsgarden as I think this review is extremely harsh and really doesn’t paint a fair picture. I have stayed in Moritsgarden last September, and the person who I assume this review is from (it seems written under a pseudo name) was there too - someone who was quite critical and negative in general. Yes, there is some truth to the review, I won’t deny that. The house is pretty old and not super well maintained, that's something that could definitely be improved. It's a bit messy, not brand spanking clean. If you expect a fancy coliving place with a cleaner twice a week, this is not the place for you. However: it's extremely cosy and homey. The old farmhouse really has its charm and makes you feel like a local living there. It's well equipped and well heated. It's a unique opportunity staying in a remote little village in Norway. The surrounding area is just breathtaking. Anne was maybe not super involved (she seems to have a lot of projects running and I think her rationale is that the coliving is its own self-managing community), but she was very kind and generous and let us use the hot tub outside, the kayaks, the bikes, the car, for free. We were even allowed to use her cabin up in the mountains. I had a truly incredible time. In my eyes, Moritsgarden is really a hidden gem. Expect to find peace here. <3 P.S. And for all the fitness freaks like me: there is the most incredible gym (with a view over the lake) only 5 minutes by bike.
