Bad - avoid this hostel by Spetz
Of the four youth hostels I stayed at during my trip to Norway, this was by far the worst. It is all set up in a very hostile manner to its guests. You have to pay 10Kr for 30 minutes of cooking, which no other hostel does and is incredibly unreasonable. You have to pay 1Kr/minute for internet access, whereas everywhere else offers it free. I have also heard rumours of the hot water going off during peak periods, like the previous poster evidently experienced.
This hostel is a 15 minute bus trip from the city centre. The bus that serves the hostel is also infrequent (every ~30 minutes), and costs 22Kr each way. Therefore, add 54Kr to the rate quoted as additional daily expenses.
Having stayed in many hostels throughout Norway during my trip there last year this was my absolute favorite. The employees are very nice and helpful and the rooms are very nice.
Located at the foot of Mount Ulriken, overlooking the city and surrounding fjords. Room types to fit all budgets starting at NOK 135 per person, all including a buffet breakfast. Offer rooms with or without shower. Ample parking. Only 17 min. by city bus 31 to/from the city center/down town. Guest kitchen, washing and drying of clothes. Internet Corner, TV lounges etc.
The rates quoted are membership rates, for those holding a membership card for Hostelling International or any affiliated national hostelling association. All others please add NOK 25 per night.
Please bring you own bed linen and towels to fully enjoy our low rates.
