Hotel rooms themselves are relatively basic (and reminded me of student accommodation). It’s well located for visiting Bergen though, and I really appreciated access to a gym two minutes away (which opens from 6am). Gluten free breakfast options were also excellent

Half great, half awful We were in a “queen size” bed room, but the bed was pushed up flush against the wall in the corner. The room was so small we were unable to lay our two carry on bags open on the floor. But, the breakfast (we paid extra) was fabulous and worth every penny. Obviously, a great location, but just an awful room.

We stayed two nights in different rooms with a family of four. It is convenient to the docks for the Fjord tours. The first room had four beds which were nice. The second room had two beds from pullout couches which were uncomfortable and then the bathtub leaked all the water onto the bathroom floor. It was a rough morning getting a bad night's rest and dealing with a lot of water on the floor. The breakfast was good both mornings.

2 nights stay

This hotel is very conveniently located just 10 minutes walk from bus station and 10 minutes walk to the city centre and ferry terminal. The room was a bit small, but it is common for hotels in Norway. My room was facing a street with traffic, but it was not bad with closed windows. The breakfast selection was excellent.

I wish there was AC. As a minimum, the hotel should supply all rooms with fans as a standard so you do not have to ask the staff and wait till one becomes available. Breakfast is great and staff is wonderfull.

Property was clean. Breakfast had good variety. A lot of hotels in Norway don't have AC. There was a heat wave when we were there but unfortunately, the hotel ran out of fans so the temperature in the room at night was barely survivable. We were at the back of the hotel and our room was overlooking a courtyard of an adjacent apartment building housing students. The students were very noisy during the weekend.

The staff here were fantastic. So friendly and helpful. Breakfast was always fresh with plenty of choice. It is very conveniently located. The bus station, shops, Bryggen and the Floibanen funicular are all within a 10 to 15 minute walk. The rooms are a little dated but this is a minor issue. We had everything we needed and enjoyed our stay.
