The bathroom smells like mold. Windows don't open and the lights are so dimmed that outside is always brighter and you have to take you phone and use your flash light to go to bathroom. I DON'T recommend it

Good value - simple, warm, clean

Simple, warm, clean & quiet room with mini/bar fridge, kettle & hair dryer. Heating works really well including the bathroom. Good value budget hotel for the Lofoten region and Norway generally. Big window so you can look up at the night sky to check for aurora (northern lights). Conveniently located opposite the ferry terminal, Hertz car rental, and a 3 minute walk to the waterfront pier. Small parking lot is in front of the hotel - appears to be free from 7pm-8am on Monday-Friday, and 5pm-7am on the weekend. Free for first 15 minutes which is handy in case you forgot something and need to briefly dash back up to your room.

There’s stains (looks like blood stains) on the curtains. The water takes a long time to heat up. The worst experience is having the cleaner repeatedly opening our door without knocking way before check out time.

Looks like a newly built property. so its clean. convenient park in and check in facility. there is no staff its a self check-in hotel. Lift is small but available. the heater was not effective. They can do better on that. There are few restaurants nearby, for good breakfast options.

Mattress upgrade please.

I thought the no frills style was what we paid for. However, the mattress was poor. I feel, keep the no frills, but people need to sleep well to recomend to others. It would be good to replace the mattresses.

Excellent comfortable hotel, great location

Very clean room with spacious bathroom. Heating in both worked very well. Excellent convenient location across the road from the main ferry terminal (for the Hurtigruten and Havila coastal voyages) and Airport Express Bus stop. Local bus stops, supermarket, shopping mall with pharmacy, Tromso's pedestrian high street (Storgata) and northern lights tour meeting points are all within 5 minutes walk. My arrival was delayed by 17 hours due to the last minute cancellation of 2 long haul connections by the airline but the hotel held my room booking for me when I messaged them en route. The included buffet breakfast was excellent! Andy at the reception desk was very kind and nice when I finally made it to check-in at 12 midnight. He told me where I could walk along the waterfront to see the northern lights. After an exhausting and unexpectedly stressful 45 hour journey and 4 flights, it was a welcome relief for check-in to go so smoothly. Note: Photos on the hotels.com and official hotel website showed the double standard rooms have sea views but this is not the case. Room 728 has a slightly obstructed city view.

Property was in a rundown area. Worst of all, it was completely unmanned. There was no staff on the premises. You let yourself in with a code that was texted to you--no lobby staff, no one to answer questions--completely hands off. I was unaware of this at the time of booking, and will never stay there again.

This is a decent budget self-service hotel. Instructions for using the code were a little off--pad wasn't where they said it would be, but there was only one, so it wasn't hard to figure out (just make sure to step into the electric eye to get the door to open after you enter the code). Rooms are small and basic but workable. Small refrigerator can hold some drinks and fruit, several shelves to make best use of space. Didn't quite have the garbage emptied when I arrived, but it's a budget hotel, so that goes with the territory. A block or so from the Bodø ferry landing and about a ten minute walk to the ferry to Skrova, so very convenient.

The room was clean and fine to stay in, however when we arrived the toilet was broken wouldn’t flush. Also the temperature in bathroom was like a sauna. I emailed Fast Hotels to report our problem but we never got a response. Finally in the morning I spoke to a person cleaning rooms and they messaged maintenance but it was too by then as we were leaving. This was very disappointing to be ignored by the hotel
