Location was not in the very centre but Tromso city is not big so it's easy to walk everywhere. Rooms were a little squeezy so we had to move things around to fit our two luggages to not trip over them. We stayed here mainly because there was the kitchen which was stocked well with all that was needed like your pots and pans and plates and bowls and cutleries. There is no daily cleaning. We were ok with that but it would be nice to have a change of towels every 3 days. We stayed for 5 nights and just having 1 floor towel was kind of hard as it got dirty pretty quickly. Beds were comfy and there was a TV you could connect your straming services to.

Fantastic hotel. Clean and new. No Human interaction needed, just need to download Vander apps and all went according to what was told.

Thank you so much!! Excellent service

We had an issue with the electronic key but were able to resolve them and it didn’t impacted our stay. Might be challenging to get in if you are arriving outside of office working hours.
Comfortable bed, big windows, big bathroom, walking everywhere (Tromso is very small). I would stay here again :)

Excellent option. It is very close to many grocery stores and to key areas in Tromso. The facilities are really good and the building is safe.

Good location. Well equipped. All the process is managed by an APP so no personal contact at all. You must have a smart phone with proper internet connection to deal with.

Håll koll om rummet är städat. Väldigt dammigt. Noise from the birds and cars were too much. We heard also the people talking outside the building every night. On our second morning I thought someone was cooking in the kitchen because it smelled bacon in our room.
Awful smells of fish when we turned on the oven and the same when the kitchen fan started.
Only good I can say is that the bathroom is clean, with warm water and so with the floor.
3.0 / 5.0
The location is excellent. There is a grocery store right next door, mall behind the building. I would have liked if they would have provided cleaning services during our stay. We stayed for 9 days and our unit was not cleaned even once. I also requested to do it at least once but nothing.

Check in/out okay once I got my head around the peculiarities of the system. I would have preferred human staff.
Access to left luggage was a pain at the weekend. Room.... Very well kitted out, bed very soft and the mattress topper kept shifting. A sound choice, but I'd prefer a traditional hotel.

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.

Great apartment, very clean, and in an excellent location. However, the app-based key system may be a challenge for foreign visitors not wanting to take mobiles off airplane mode and pay for roaming charges. Twice the wifi in the building could not be picked up at the night entrance door (that must be used between 9pm to 9am) so had to use cellular data and pay for roaming twice for just a 2 second use of the app to unlock the door, which was really unfortunate.

Lake of communication!!!! We arrived at the airport in Norway and still had not received the code to get in our room. Took a few international calls before we could finally get into the room!!! Unacceptable!!!!

Everything was very good. The place is beautiful, comfortable and well located. The lack of human contact makes a little difficult somas easy things like getting tour room key.
5.0 / 5.0
Really enjoyed staying here. Would recommend. Clean, well-appointed apartment with view out to Fjord as requested. Well situated in easy walking distance of city attractions, tour pick up locations, shops, bars & restaurants. Very quiet. Comfy bed, but very thin duvets had to put on more layers to go to bed!!
Found electronic key on phone useful as easy late access by night door usefulon arrival & after tours, but restrictive as we both had to be together all the time.
Would be useful if key facility could be made available to other guests sharing the apartment.
Restaurant on ground floor but limited opening so didn't use.

Stayed in apt 505, the doorknob gets jammed from the inside. Making it hard to get out of the apt. Suggest replacing it with a new one. Overall my experience was great!

Other than a few minor things it was a really good experience and the room was exactly what we needed.
4.0 / 5.0
Great location. Small room, but good enough.
All facilities in the room are working well. Will be really nice to have some basic condiments such as salt and pepper in the kitchen.
The host was helpful to ensure we could check in via message & email. Apart from that there is not much information about the room and the stay. The contactless check in process and information about the stay could be improved.

The apartment was nice but the entry and exit was troublesome. I couldn’t get entry code and had to go to the office to get room keys. On hindsight having a room key was beneficial as the friends we were with had issues with their entry code. Also heard other guests having issues with the access codes.
The other issues we experienced was the inability to enter and exit the complex after hours on the main level. Especially troublesome having to carry luggage up and down stairs from and to the lower level.
2.5 / 5.0
Property was very nice, the room was small but very efficient. I liked the location too. My only complaint was the trash. I was instructed to separate all my trash into different bags and then take to a central location. The central location didn't have separated cans. So what was the point of being so mindful of this process?
2.0 / 5.0
Nice property. But there was no couch in living area.
Communications were very poor. It is a no contact check in and I did not get my email that I needed to get information to check in.

Really good really good location. Walking distance to town centre. Do you have shops restaurants, sporting centres where you can hire sporting equipment, a lovely restaurant downstairs, which we thoroughly enjoyed overall really enjoyed it. Clean spacious. We are family of five and really enjoyed it.

STAY AWAY! No front desk, unclear and difficult check in. You need to download an app on the spot, so better have an large internet package and speak English. Lobby full of stranded international and elderly tourist having trouble with all it. Lobby closes after 18:00 and you need to find your way trough some tunnels and stairs to your room. We had a problem with the water alarm and it took forever to contact someone over the phone and get help. Luggage storage has NO lock, everybody can just walk in and take whatever they want. And the kicker: we got an email, nobody is in your room but the fire inspector needs to get in so they just opened our room and helped them self. STAY AWAY!

The room was fine but i did have struggles with the door, the mobile key didnt work and would unlock the gym and then when i did get a key the doors seal was coming off so you had to keep reseating it or it wpuldnt latch properly. Since this was on the second floor (the only one on the elevatorthat doesnt require a key) this also raised concerns about safety. Also the room wasnt ready for checkin over an hour after time was ready, and i did confim my arrival time in advance. The room was clean though and right in the city center bwhich was convenient.

Nice location. Key app is not that convenient to use, especially in elevator.

I had a beautiful corner room with a window that opened a small amount, it was perfect since I am used to air conditioner. The place was clean and comfortable. Just ask for additional towels and sheets .
1.5 / 5.0
The communication is terrible. They’re not open after a certain time so we helped tons of people just get into the building that came in at night. They’re definitely needs to be someone there 24/7, you have to plan ahead if you want sheets or towels because there’s no one to get them past 6 or so (at least my experience). We had a pull out bed in our room but no extra sheets on them…. So how do you use it? Just sleep on a nasty mattress? We checked all the cabinets/drawers. Nothing. The dryer doesnt dry the clothes after 2 hours, useless. The restaurant on premise was absolutely disgusting. The grill doesnt get Near hot enough to cook the meat in a reasonable amount of time. Definitely not worth the price. Oh, also my app never worked. When I opened it it was just a grey screen. Most people’s app didn’t work that we talked to and helped. I’m also confused how I paid more for a room than someone in my group but I got a worse room, no windows to open, ac barely did anything (I realize that’s not a thing in Norway) but don’t have the option if it doesnt do Anything :). Beware of the rooms that look directly into a hallway lmao! No street view or anything… just a hallway, ours looked at the elevators. The point? I see none.
The good: shower pressure, bathroom, kitchen area (minus microwave), refrigerator.

Beautiful view of the mountain from room. Great location, within walking distance to restaurants & other attractions around the city.
2.5 / 5.0
Great location, close to the city centre. Walkable distance to bus stops, taxi ranks, grocery store and shopping centre. Was a bit small for a family of three. As soon as the fold out sofa is set up, there is only a few centimeters of space left between the end of the bed and the shelf below the tv. Very hard to navigate in the night if getting up to use the toilet. Main bedroom needs more lights. Can be a bit dull at night. Overall we were happy with our stay.
