Good room for the price, sort of apartment like with shared bathroom and common rooms.
Nice to have access to kitchen and free coffee in the morning

Good value for money. I strongly suggest a private room, not a hostel bed.

very nice staff, lovely rooms and the atmosphere of being home: it’s a cosy place. I really like that coffee and tea are for free and that you have the possibility of using a fridge to store food and cook by yourself. The decoration is really nice as well and the staff is very friendly. Furthermore it’s not in the loud city centre but you can reach it by feet within 15 minutes. Also around this place there are many lovely cosy bars where you can meet lots of local people and also prices are lower than in the old town. I really liked my stay and would always come back

Daha önce kullanılmış olan yatak çarşafı değiştirilmemişti. Yıkanmış çarşaf hem temiz kokar hem de dokusu farklıdır. Fakat yatak çarşafı bu özelliklere sahip değildi. Personelden değiştirilmesini talep ettiğimde önce nerden biliyorsunuz değiştirilmediğini tabiki de mağazadan yeni almadık deyip, manipülasyon yaparak benimle tartışmak istedi. Kendisine yorgun olduğumu, dinlenmeye ihtiyacım olduğunu söyleyip, tartışmak istemediğimi talep ederse extra ücret vereceğimi teklif ettikten sonra çarşaflar temiz olanlarla değiştirildi. Misafirle tartışmak istemek, onu neredeyse sorguya çeker gibi sözler söylemek, dahası o misafir ana dilde konuşmuyorsa, bir ülkede yabancıysa, tolere edilemez.
Temizlik; 5 yıldız üzerinden 2, havlular temizdi ve genel alan fena değildi.
Çalışanlar; 5 yıldız üzerinden 2, çarşaf için extra ücret almadı.
Ardından koridorda bağıran erkekler, kadın-erkek tartışan insanlar…Uykumdan o seslerle uyandım.
Çok rahatsız ve tedirgin edici bir konaklamaydı.
Kısacası tavsiye etmiyorum.

Bare bra
Du får det som du betaler for. Lav standard, men verdt hver krone. Posisjon er sentralt, vennlige resepsjonister, rent bad og toalett, og helt fint rom. Det er gammel bygg derfor noe dårligere luft inne. Hvis du skal ha en enkelt kort opphold, nær alt du kan ikke gjøre feil ved å velge Central Hostel.
