It's good for money and enough with the facility.
Pros:

The place is a shared apartment with other residents. One floor is around 10-13 people with 3 bathroom. So bathroom is not crowded. It is very close to the bus stop so make it easy to access. And in the late night, it is 15 minutes walk from train station.

The cleanliness maybe one question, but it is because the residents there. They seem to have maintenance for cleaning, or probably the owner do that. Everyday, one bathroom got 6 rolls new toilet paper, and in the morning before 6, someone seems to clean the bathroom. I saw the people coming out from the apartment for smoking so probably the owner forbid that and the room doesn't smell smoke so far.

WiFi works well, digital lock is the best, and late check in is easy. Calling the number, and the number is active for 3 calls that I made

Cons:

I think with that price, everything is just expected. I was just trying to find a glass, but I could not find any. So I use a bowl to drink the whole night :)

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The place was not clean, and there were insects in the bed — what’s called bed bugs.
I left after the first night because I couldn’t sleep.
I do not recommend it at all.
The room was in the basement, like a prison, and it even contained items such as a washing machine — as if it were a storage room.

Pros:

Cheap

Cons:

It was very basic. Bed uncomfortable. It's cheap and cheerful but too basic for me. No bedside light, not even a mug.

Her ble du lurt!
Pros:

Hotellet var overbooket. Vi fikk tilbud på en annen plass. Men den ville vi ikke og takket nei. Ikke et ord om penger tilbake hverken fra de eller Booking.com.

Cons:

Det er veldig dårlig og ikke informere på forhånd.

Cons:

Lite parkering, ingen ventilasjon, bråk på nattestid. Virker som en plass for husløse, og har ingenting på booking.com å gjøre.
