Citybox Bergen Danmarksplass
Prices are competitive for the hotel type. They offered us at checking a bigger room for the price that we paid. The room was very clean, the bed was comfortable. There are no amenities, and the breakfast was not included. Otherwise we had a comfortable stay at this hotel.
