We had 3 people in four person room and were by ourselves for the first two nights. The room had it's own bathroom and kitchenette, and a window overlooking the roof terrace. the bathroom was quite large, but prone to flooding.

The location was excellent for sightseeing and wandering to restaurants and cafes. The staff were helpful without being exceptional. Internet can be purchased at reception. There's a cute guest book in the common area, where you can read previous guests' messages. There's a supermarket across the street and a laundry up the road.

A good place to explore Bergen from.

The other 4 people in our room were considerate, so we slept pretty well. There's free wifi and the kitchen had everything we needed to make dinner, and their breakfast (which costs an extra 65 NOK per person per morning) was great and very filling. The hostel is located within sight of the tourist information building, and less than a 5 minute walk from the Bryggen. The 6 person room was bearable for 2 nights, though I wouldn't have wanted to sleep in the main dorm area after reading the reviews. If we went back, we'd pay the extra for a private room, to avoid having to tiptoe around in the mornings and nights.

We had booked for 5 nights but left after 2- the 32 bed dorm was unventilated and stuffy, the lights never went off during the night, and was really noisy. Barely got any sleep. The fridge in the kitchen smelled of rotten fish and clearly hadnt been cleaned out in a very long time. The bathroom facilities were borderline clean, the female showers were simply one room with shower heads where you had to press a button and got about 30 seconds of water- which made showering difficult as you had to constantly have your hand on the button. Toilets were all unisex, which meant they werent very clean at all. We met some really nice people there and hung out with them even after we changed hostels, which was nice, the communal areas were good places for socialising. Definately overpriced for the poor quality services.

Great value and location. Around 27 dollars a night and right on the water, across the street from the fish market, Bryggen area, and tourist information. Nice common room with TV and couches, we met some very nice people there. Free Wifi or you could pay money to use one of their computers. Lockers and a luggage room for your stuff and a rather nice kitchen. Slept in a room with 30 other people in bunk beds. They were comfy enough but in the morning some people are rather inconsiderate with their alarms and let them ring and ring at 6am. Apparently there are smaller rooms and we just did not look into it enough in advance. Discount at the restaurant downstairs that has decent food, good for vegetarians which is hard to find in Norway
