This was a perfect apartment for a 3 night stay, not too far away from the main town, probably a 10 minute walk. Couple of good restaurants close by. What we found quite strange was the fact that we were asked to make our own beds - as well as strip the beds on our departure?! The rental charge supposed includes a cleaning fee, so I have no idea why you have to do this for them.

Liked the location. Did NOT like the impossibly steep stairs that are dangerous. If you are over 35 years of age do NOT select room up stairs. Upstairs rooms are for mountain goats!! Trying to manage a suitcase up and down these stairs was tricky at best and downright dangerous at worst.

Perfect place in Bergen
Absolutely fantastic apartment for a stay in Bergen - great location in a beautiful and quiet area near the centre, clean and very well equipped (we did not struggle to cook here unlike in many other apartments we have stayed in) and the communication from the host was excellent. The list of recommendations for things to do/places to eat were also fantastic and made our stay even better. Really stylish and comfortable flat - we did not want to leave!

Lovely stay
Enjoyed our stay in the apartment for 2 nights. Very useful to have facilities such as a washing machine and a place to store and prepare food- a cheaper and convenient alternative to going out to eat every night after a long day exploring. Lovely clean apartment and very homely. Appreciated the local recommendation list too. Very steep stairs up to flat for awareness of others, but not a problem if your mobility is good. Thank you :)

Absolutely super stay - just a couple of things...
We hired 3 separate apartments of different sizes - the separate entrances for different apartments on different streets were a bit of a surprise and a bit awkward with 1 group together but manageable all the same - it might not suit a family with children however so to be aware. The stairs up to our 2 smaller apartments are the narrowest steepest stairs I have ever encountered anywhere in my entire life - you have to be very very careful coming down especially if carrying luggage. However apart from these 2 things - absolutely brilliant - fautless, flawless - good location, would use again.

This beautiful studio apartment 5 minutes walk from central Bergen was perfect. Lovely building, beautifully fitted out and facilities for cooking and washing. Steep little staircase to the first floor! Full of light, very comfortable. Could not fault this place.

Comfortable modern apartments
Clean, modern apartments and nicely styled. Good email communication. Street itself is a bit average but walking distance to everything. Steep stairs to higher floors, might be difficult for some people, but ground floor apartments are easy. The only major negative which unfortunately has lowered my rating is the fact that you must put on the bedsheets yourself and then remove them at the end of the stay. This unheard of in any serviced apartment or hotel, and I've certainly never seen it before in 2 decades of travelling globally. Nowhere else asks this of the guests. A cleaning fee is already incorporated into the charge so can't understand why they make the guests do this.

Great location and nicely presented apartment. Communication from the host was effective although outlined a lot of conditions and rules which takes away a little bit of the pleasure of staying somewhere. Would have been nice if the beds were made, instead you have to do your own bedding. Equally the bedding was very cheap linen and made us sweat a lot in the night. Then followed by a checklist for check out - stripping the beds and placing in a certain place, removing the rubbish etc… with a cleaning charge you would expect some of this to be done for you.

Lethal stairs but great apartment
Lovely apartment. But very steep and dangerous stairs up to entrance on first floor. Not recommended for people with mobility issues. No handrail on stairs - I ended up at emergency doctor with concussion after falling down stairs. Manager promised to get handrail installed, but check this before you book.

Hi Samantha and thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately some of these old houses has some quiet steep stairs, and we are considering getting a handrail installed after your accident. I guess we also have to check the details on the booking page about access to the apartment - it should say access by steep stairs. We are so sorry for your accident and hope you are doing a lot better. Note that we also have apartments on the ground level and. Hope to welcome you back some day!

Nydelig leilighet og flott opphold!
Oktober 2023. Vi har hatt 4 alle tiders dager i Bergen, storkost oss. Mye opplevelser disse dagene. Da vi kom inn i trappeoppgangen hvor leiligheten lå i 2.etg, luktet det såpe og rent. Samme med leiligheten, det var en flott leilighet, utmerket størrelse for 2 personer. Det så helt nyoppusset ut, rent pent og tilnærmet støvfritt. Varme i golv, alt fungerte som det skulle. Og leiligheten lå supersentralt. Stille og rolig strøk under oppholdet. Alt under oppholdet fungerte egentlig perfekt. Så bare positivt her. Overkommelig pris, så hit kunne vi tenke oss å leie neste gang også. Tommel opp!

The location is quite convenient and the room is good. Recommended to stay in the flats on ground floor; otherwise, you have to go up via a sharp slope stair with your baggages. The host cannot be contacted at weekends when we had some problems on handling the dishwasher (we only stayed here for one night at weekend). They finally replied us on weekday but it was close to our checkout time. We have already washed all the used dishes ourselves before their reply.

Parfait pour visiter Bergen
Petit pied à terre parfait pour séjourner à Bergen. Très cosy, avec tout l’équipement nécessaire pour faire ses repas comme chez soi. Très bien insonorisé ( n’ayez pas peur de la route qu’on voit sur les photos, ça n’est pas du tout gênant). A deux pas de tout : centre ville, restos, supérette, stations de bus et taxi
