-Sehr freundliche Bedienung
-sehr sehr gutes Preisleistungsverhältnis für Norwegen
- Einkaufsmöglichkeiten direkt vor der Tür
- Ein großes Freizeitangebot in der Umgebung(20km)
sehr schöne Dusche, aber ein Schieber wäre gut um das Wasser weg zu machen:)
Damit will ich nur sagen nicht viel:)
Allerdings sollte man Mobil sein, besonders wenn man außerhalb der Ski- bzw. Wanderzeit reist.(Besonders Renter möchte ich hiermit ansprechen. Sind halt Berge.)

very good price / value - good room / everything clean (shared showers, bathrooms), very good other common area
all good - maybe the rooms are a little noisy when others speak loud, but usually after 10pm everybody is quiet

Very clean room, nice staff, good location. We were happy to have our room keys left at the reception when we arrived very late.
The shower in one bathroom did not work.

Helpful staff, quiet but central location, free parking
Room was a bit cold at first, but also needed to have window open for a while to get some fresh air in to the room.

Excellent guest house, clean and comfy, right in the centre of Rjukan. Great staff and customer experience. Free parking and walking distance to local shops, supermarkets and outdoors sports. We absolutely enjoyed our staying!

Kitchen facilities not available other than a small microwave and a kettle. It would have been nice to be able to cook our own meals. Good with a drying room but the light did not work.

great location in Rjukan, walking distance to shop and to bistros. Roomy and good shower, comfortable beds.
breakfast is nothing special given the price
9.0
In an ideal central position in the town, very cozy room with practical water basin. The dining room is very nice and there are other good spaces and commodities.
The price (a double room for single use) was a little too high in my opinion, also given the low season. There was some problem with the automatic lighting in the bathrooms (not turning on, or turning off too early), but nothing serious.
9.0
We had access to plates, microwave and much else, so we could make a decent and cheap dinner.
I also very much liked the price.
My bed broke when I sat on it. I didn't like that. Luckily there was another bed in the room. I slept in that.
8.0
Quiet, clean, and we had the whole building almost entirely to ourselves (it was off season). Good facilities, and well priced for a hostel in Norway
Beds are too narrow. The minimum I expect for a hostel is that I can sleep okay. The rest is a nice extra.
10.0
It was a great place with nice canteen area and kitchen. There was a fridge and coffee/tea machine with unlimited anytime coffee. The place was at the heart of the city with access to all major restaurants and supermarkets. Bus stop was right in front.
They could have a bit more comfy beds.
6.0
breakfast could be better.

Good location, in the city center of Rjukan. Grocery story closeby.
There was some strange smell in the corridors and rooms. Probably from liquids used for cleaning.
8.0
Amazing showers! Good to have drying room. Staff were very chilled about letting us use the kitchen. Nice lounge area
Beds are fairly narrow but it was no big deal.
8.0
This is a basic hostel with private rooms, but as such it is of good value. Central location, but reasonably quiet with a good price. Nice staff!
Nothing wrong, but most rooms share a couple of bathrooms. They also have upgraded rooms with private bath and TV. Breakfast costs extra and is probably a bit expensive.
8.0
Centrally located, reasonably priced, my room with bathroom was spacious and packed breakfast worked fine
