This was a nice hostel in a good area. The only thing to be aware of is that you need to take off your shoes any time you are inside, you may want to bring slippers/flip flops to wear while indoors. Also, they have multiple fridges but the freezer is only accessible by the staff so they have to be on site for you to put things in or take things out of the freezer.

Very clean property. We were a little skeptical to stay in hostel, ie sharing bathroom and kitchen, but it went very well. There are enough bathrooms and the kitchen is big enough for multiple families to share. Staff is friendly and accommodating.

The place is definitely new. Everything was very clean and nice. I had a suite so it was nice having a private bathroom. Laundry is quite expensive 2,500kr for 1 load. Overall I had a good stay.

The receptionist was nice. However, the owner was rude and did not think for customs, not even wanting to help.
