Very sweet house, great location on the hill. Plenty of room. We really enjoyed our stay. It does have steep stairs and 1 bathroom but that didn't interfere with our enjoyment. All around great places to stay.

Very good location for accessing Bryggen, Floyen and city centre on foot. The house is very well equipped with kitchen and laundry appliances. However, some areas are a little shabby, with paintwork damaged and the hook holding the bathroom door shut is very weak.The upper stairs are steep with no handrail.

Hi Nigel, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay! I’m happy to hear you enjoyed the location near Bryggen and Fløyen, and that the house had everything you needed. Thank you also for the detailed feedback. I’ve made sure to fix the bathroom door hook right away, and I have noted down your comments regarding the paintwork and stairs for future improvements. We appreciate you staying with us, and you are always welcome back! Best wishes 😊
