Prima hostel in het leuke plaatsje Mandal.
Pros:

Het betreft hier een hogeschool voor creatieve kunsten die in de vakantie gebruikt wordt als hostel. Verwacht daarom geen vier sterren hotelbeleving. De kamers zijn sober ingericht, maar alles wat je nodig hebt is aanwezig. De bedden zijn erg goed en alles is schoon. De ligging is op korte loopafstand van het centrum en je kan er gratis parkeren. Het personeel is erg klantvriendelijk. Mandal is ook een leuk plaatsje met een leuke haven.
Wij vonden het een perfecte overnachtingsplaats op een half uurtje rijden van de veerboot in Kristiansand,
