This hotel is exactly in front of the war museum. Rooms were very clean and tidy, no one at reception but easy Checkin
Comfortable beds
No restaurant / breakfast but there are many hotels nearby for food

No hand towels or wash cloths were provided. Only two thin bath towels. And the bathroom smelled of mildew. Would not stay again.

Et helt enkelt og basic overnattingssted. Men opplevdes veldig spartansk.

Veldig smal seng. Savner mer informasjon om parkering.

Bed was bad, because it was very soft. The room was quite light at night and warm too. The room wasn't clean. Chairs, the floor and toilet were dirty. Toilet lights got broken during our visit so there was dark.

Smooth checkin- all you need is the code from email.
No access for the kitchen thats suppose to be for everyone.
no cleaning during our stay... no new towels or bedsheets

This is a very basic hotel. Simple room and no extra. No reception. No breakfast. But it is clean and felt safe.

Great place to stay. Very nice room keeping. Works perfectly without reception. Code for entry also more than on time. Blow dryer available. For the price perfect.

It’s an unmanned hotel. Unusual but totally fine.

Two lights out in the room and could not contact anyone. Room basic and nice. Just a block from docks making it very convenient. Only free parking is a few spaces on street right in front of the hotel.

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

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.

Ok for to overnattinger

The hotel was conveniently placed, but the room smelled, and particularly the bathroom. Although apparently clean in general, the smell gave us a bad vibe.
2.0
Perfect spot for the hotel. 1min walk to the boardwalk
8mim from airport by car. Easy online check in
Broken bed, broken shower door, mattress was awful.
1 star but cheapest around for a night before getting to the plane

The bed was bad. It was decommissioned. Sleep badly. Nice with a short walking distance to a restaurant

Is this the future of so called 'hospitality'?
This hotel has no human presence whatsoever: no check in / reception staff; nobody to speak to with a problem.They send a text with access code and room number on the afternoon of arrival.If you don't get the text you will be sleeping on the street.
What happens if there is an IT failure? Everybody out on the street?
What happens in an emergency ? The hotel will have nobody to help. You will be on your own, and relying on the local volunteer services.
4.0
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.
4.0
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.

Very basic hotel room but opposite ferry and small bus terminal. Fridge in the room, also an electric jug for tea and coffee. I love staying here. Walking distance to most things in Svolvaer.

I was very happy with my room: even though it was small it had everything I needed. Comfortable bed, good shower, and in a great location. It was quiet. Definitely a good place to stay.

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.

We didn't stay at that hotel due our mistake

No where to sit, no ventilation so the window needs to be open except the angry seagulls make so much noise in the morning you cannot sleep. The worst is no items in machine downstairs and the coffee machine in lobby was not working. Not impressed with this no frill hotel for the money
5.0

Ok place.
2.0
Great location and easy check in with texted code for entry and room door. Large room. However booked for 2 people and only had one pillow, one towel and duvet. Tried to contact the hotel but no response which was disappointing, otherwise great position, near Hurtigruten, car hire and restaurants.
