Liked: Very friendly and helpful staff. Lots of good facilities and good social environment. Very central location too!

Disliked: Reception hours are limited, so you might have to let yourself in. Not too much of a problem though as the staff are very helpful at making sure everything is set out and arranged for you

Liked: the late entrance with the codes worked perfectly. I liked my welcome package waiting in the safe for me. The location is perfect. Very clean.

Disliked: The rooms for 6 people are small. It is a bit hard to move when everyone packs and/or unpacks.

Liked: The location was totally awesome, within walking distance to the Fish Market and Bryggen. It was also very easy to get around to other attractions and the Tourist Information is just across the road, which makes it convenient to purchase tickets to the various tours/attractions in Bergen.

Disliked: The short duration that the reception counter was kept opened.

Liked: I liked the common kitchen and dining room! And the location was good!

Disliked: When I wanted to cook something in the night, there was no pot or pan to use because people didn't wash them after use. I want you to consider deposit for using utensil.

Liked: Facilities. Every room's got their own toilet and shower and some kitchen stuff. (But you're not allowed to cook food in your room) They've got a great kitchen downstairs with a dishwasher and free access to all the kitchen stuff.

Disliked: It was pretty expensive. But thats the price for a hostel in Norway. And the two of the ribs in my bed fell off when I slept. And no one is guarding the luggage room and everybodys got acces to it.

Liked: Best location ever, one street back from bryggen and the fish markets

Disliked: Room was quite cramped as was the bathroom (and only one for 6 people, difficult in the morning when everyone is trying to get ready at the same time) Pillow was terrible. Quite expensive for what it is, but everywhere in Bergen is.
