Good enough for a 1-2 night stay.
Unstaffed hotel.
Very good location to the city centre and Ferry terminal.
Kettle and Fridge provided in the rooms.
Convenient location to shops and bus stop. Staff were very quick to answer the phone and resolve issues (code not working). Clean and comfortable rooms.
This hotel is exactly in front of the war museum. Rooms were very clean and tidy, no one at reception but easy Checkin
Comfortable beds
No restaurant / breakfast but there are many hotels nearby for food

Central location, easy to book and no limitations on arrival. Parking can be difficult, but there are still plenty of parking spots nearby. Good and cheap hotel to use in September.
Simple, warm, clean & quiet room with mini/bar fridge, kettle & hair dryer. Heating works really well including the bathroom. Good value budget hotel for the Lofoten region and Norway generally. Big window so you can look up at the night sky to check for aurora (northern lights). Conveniently located opposite the ferry terminal, Hertz car rental, and a 3 minute walk to the waterfront pier. Small parking lot is in front of the hotel - appears to be free from 7pm-8am on Monday-Friday, and 5pm-7am on the weekend. Free for first 15 minutes which is handy in case you forgot something and need to briefly dash back up to your room.

Smooth checkin- all you need is the code from email.
No access for the kitchen thats suppose to be for everyone.
no cleaning during our stay... no new towels or bedsheets
Very clean room with spacious bathroom. Heating in both worked very well. Excellent convenient location across the road from the main ferry terminal (for the Hurtigruten and Havila coastal voyages) and Airport Express Bus stop. Local bus stops, supermarket, shopping mall with pharmacy, Tromso's pedestrian high street (Storgata) and northern lights tour meeting points are all within 5 minutes walk. My arrival was delayed by 17 hours due to the last minute cancellation of 2 long haul connections by the airline but the hotel held my room booking for me when I messaged them en route. The included buffet breakfast was excellent! Andy at the reception desk was very kind and nice when I finally made it to check-in at 12 midnight. He told me where I could walk along the waterfront to see the northern lights. After an exhausting and unexpectedly stressful 45 hour journey and 4 flights, it was a welcome relief for check-in to go so smoothly. Note: Photos on the hotels.com and official hotel website showed the double standard rooms have sea views but this is not the case. Room 728 has a slightly obstructed city view.
Room and hotel was nice but it was July and the sun is out all the time Andy the room was boiling, with the sunlight and the heat it made sleeping well a challenge. I would imagine any other time of the year in Norway would be fine
Great hotel. Easy to checkin, everything on line, no reception and everything perfect. Fantastic location in village. There ir fridge and boiling machine in room
I was very happy with my room: even though it was small it had everything I needed. Comfortable bed, good shower, and in a great location. It was quiet. Definitely a good place to stay.

I liked the simplicity of this hotel. Could have used a hand towel in the bathroom.
Perfect spot for the hotel. 1min walk to the boardwalk
8mim from airport by car. Easy online check in
Broken bed, broken shower door, mattress was awful.
1 star but cheapest around for a night before getting to the plane

Fast hotel is a concept I hadn’t seen before - an unstaffed hotel. It just worked, though felt a bit empty.
