The location was excellent. It’s so close to Market Square that I could hear the bells and bugle every hour. Although there’s a disco club downstairs, I couldn’t hear any noise from the club. The staff are also friendly and helpful. The free breakfast every morning was simple but it was nice to not have to look for breakfast.

Evangeline, Italy

The hostel is located in the old town area, it was easy to get anywhere, new furniture in the bathroom (we stayed in a separate room for 2 people). All the staff we met spoke English. For the one-night stay, it's a great place. The prices are reasonable.

Kristina, Ukraine

Loved my experience on a solo trip to Norway and this hostel. The location is superb! The bed was comfortable with it's personal lighting and charging point. They also had free lockers (no need padlock) that you can use and I liked this feature best! They have everything necessary.

Jskely, United Kingdom

The staff were super friendly and informative. The location itself, right near the city center was easy to navigate too. Cleanliness of the facility was top-notch as well.

Ray, Poland

Awesome location and I appreciated the free breakfast! Complementary champagne and cookies to bring in the new year was very thoughtful!

Donna, United States of America

Perfect location. Very clean and cozy environment. Friendly staff. There was free breakfast. Definitely value for money. I highly recommend this hostel.

Just off from the main square. The whole hostel was very clean. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful. The common area/kitchen was big and a great way to meet others. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, with lockers and keys provided. The bathrooms seemed to always be spotless as well. A great hostel all round.
