Fantastic City Stay!

easy check-in ample amenities great restaurants

The location is AMAZING!!! Taxis and great restaurants are easily accessible. Check-in was easy and I was happy to see ample amenities. The historic Bryggen is close by. The train station is only a 10-minute walk.

I noticed a slight lack of attention to cleanliness. Some surfaces needed a bit more dusting. The kitchen lacked a few essential utensils. I believe these small adjustments would enhance the overall experience.
