Well equipped apartment, short walk to the centre and convenient supermarket close by. Check in was very seamless.
There is a grocery shop nearby, which make it very convenient, and all the cooking stuff is there to use too. But we didn’t get any view.

The check in was relatively easy, except the mobile key didn’t work but was able to get a real key. The apartment is clean with nice view. The location is close to Downtown and all activities pickup is within 5-10 minutes walk. The staff is very responsive. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Yes. They were able to check us in earlier as the room was available. We were grateful for that even though it’s unmanned. They were quite responsive through email as well.

Good location, feel and look of property was very nice. Close to shops and pub/restaurants.
However construction next door was loud. Bins were not empty ahead of our stay. Bed was not comfortable.
Great location, kitchen has all the appliances you need for a short stay and there is a supermarket very close by. Using their app as a key worked smoothly and self-check-in was straightforward

Great place to stay!
The online check in process, app to use the key, room and facilities were all great! The hotel is walking distance from the main part of town, walking distance from the bus stop, and a grocery store is right next door. Would highly recommend for a low frills, easy and safe place to stay while exploring Tromso.
Booking this off the internet and was a bit cautious on what we would find overall, its a simple and clean hotel. quiet place, didn’t see many others. Would gladly stay here again.
