Decent and clean apartment but it was different to the one in the photos that we booked. It was clean. Only annoying bit was the bathroom drain was blocked and there was no dish soap. Overall, great location to see the northern lights and cute surroundings with a lake at 100m.

Liked the lakeside location and coziness. Stayed in one of the double bedrooms 3 nights. Everything was good but there are signs letting you know of quiet times due to noise carrying throughout the building very easily. Unfortunately, not everyone adhered to the quiet times and I was woken up multiple times throughout my stay with people moving around, talking, and slamming doors. Something to consider if you’re a light sleeper.

Erittäin viihtyisä paikka, pienenä miinuksena huoneiden olematon ilmanvaihto (pakko pitää ikkunaa auki).

Hyvä ja halpa hostelli
Oli todella sympaattinen paikka, todella kodin omainen ja maanläheinen. Ihan pehmeät sängyt. Seinät ohuet, joten muiden äänet kuuluvat. Pieni, mutta siisti yhteiskeittiö.

Tolle, ruhige Lage direkt am Wasser. Viele Aktivitäten direkt vom Hostel. Süßes Café und allgemeine Räumlichkeiten. In unserem Appartement war teilweise etwas wenig Platz für 4 Leute, z.B. war der Esstisch extrem klein. Ein paar mehr Geschirrhandtücher wären als Ausstattung ganz gut, wenn man länger als 2 Tage dort bleibt. Alles in allem eine sehr schöne und preiswerte Unterkunft, vor allem für die Lofoten. Man darf natürlich nicht mit Hotels vergleichen. Es ist und bleibt ein Hostel.
