Montana Hostel - Bad - avoid this hostel

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.
