Everything is done via the app, check-in, key on phone, check out. Room is clean. The key situation is absolutely dreadful. Useless is about what I can say. Rarely works and have to constantly keep restarting phone for the key to work. Not helpful at all. Pillows are so flat and uncomfortable. Towels are tiny and not the best. Shower is not bad at all. Cooking utensils everything you need for a studio room no problems at all. Apartment is close to everything you need, site seeing, tour start points,. supermarkets, restaurants.

Room was in good condition. It was a very odd space in terms of shape, probably because the space was really small (not enough to open up a suitcase, except on the bed or couch). In general, things were modern and clean. Someone had been sick in the hallway, I reported it, I promptly received a reply and it was cleaned up. I did find it odd that I was expected to take my rubbish out to the bins on the street. Pillows on the bed flattened away to provide no support when you put your head on them.

The room was lovely and clean and had everything we needed. I had paid extra for a studio with sofa bed as myself and granddaughter didn’t want to share. The sofa needed pulling out and making up on our arrival. Furniture had to be moved to allow this as the room was so small. Not much space to move around. Slightly disappointed by the size of the room when the sofa was out.

Clean, modern and a nice size for three women. But one mirror (in the bathroom) in the entire two bedroom apartment, which isn’t great when you’re all trying to get ready at once. The key card entry was easy enough and we felt safe there. Great location, near to cafes, supermarkets and a few minutes’ walk to the nearest bus stop for the airport or 10 minutes to the light rail. You can walk to Bryggen in less than 15 minutes.

There are many things to like about this hotel location is excellent within walking distance of all interesting restaurants and the wharf. The apartment was spotlessly clean the bed was comfortable and the shower was good. It was great to have a Kitchen and there were grocery stores very close by. On the downside there was no shampoo I know basic supplies for the kitchen like salt pepper and cooking oil. So I have to go to buy those and I didn’t leave them because the instructions were to get rid of everything. I also found that the lack of instructions for how to use the various appliances was a bit disturbing and I had trouble with the induction stove and with the oven. The price however was very good for Bergen and so I would stay again. I appreciated having a laundry. The gym was less inviting since it’s in the basement with no windows although there is a very large TV. I was so long so the studio suited me fine but it would be very small for any more than one person

This was a great last minute find. Our other booking fell through so this was a last minute find. The location could not have been better. The unit was in very good condition and they met my disability needs. The check-in was different for us an a little complicated - all automated. The cooktop gave us problems as turning it on and off was way more complicated than it needed to be. The whole unit was on a main power switch that ran all things electric in the unit. An instruction book, more detailed than what was on the door, would have been helpful. If the burner was hot, you could not turn the stove on again. And there was a third layer of a switch you had to hit before you could use it. Not intuitive at all. However, we would definitely stay in this place again. Great value now that we know how to operate things.

Good location in central Bergen, close to the train station and light rail. The check-in process was difficult as the property asked for my email address in a specific format, which I eventually deduced was with spaces between each character. They also expected me to download their app, but that required my mobile number and for me to message them or email them using a space between each character of their email address. Just too much work! They didn’t send the code for getting into the building, so I had to call them and also needed assistance checking in on their electronic board, which created a keycard. Our room on the second floor smelt of seeerage in the bathroom, as did the corridor outside. Thankfully the manager moved us to another room on the fifth floor, which had a great view,. However, it had a skylight in the bedroom that had no curtain, so we had to wear eye masks to sleep with the midnight sun! Finally, the day after checking out, they messaged to say they hadn’t charged the cleaning fee in the initial booking, so had recouped that - just another indication of the problematic service.

Overall, my experience with Vander Altona after obtaining my keys was great. The room was excellent for the price. However, the experience leading up to check-in was difficult. I booked my trip a few weeks in advance. Shortly thereafter, Vander emailed me a payment link to pay for my stay even though I provided a credit card to Hotels.com as part of the reservation. Hotels.com explicitly says to never pay through a payment link sent by the hotel and to only ever pay through Hotels.com's website. Vander also told me to provide them with my contact information. Hotels.com doesn't seem to allow this, so Vander told me how to avoid Hotels.com's automatic censorship of personal information (e.g., by adding spaces to my email address). I initially ignored Vander's email since it seemed sketchy, and I didn't hear anything further from them. The day of my trip, I clicked on the reservation details and discovered that Vander had canceled my booking weeks prior (presumably because I didn't click their payment link). I never received any notification from Hotels.com or Vander. I didn't have many other options on such short notice, so I re-booked with Vander and paid them through their link this time. It worked out fine. Check-in was difficult as others have stated. The app didn't work. I called and was buzzed in, so no trouble in the end. But still--if you're going to have a no-staff-on-site model, it isn't really acceptable to not have a functioning app.

The check in process is pretty bad if anything has gone wrong with your booking - similar to using a dodgy third party website to book a flight, everything is probably going to be fine if you’re lucky. We arrived however our phone number had not been registered with the system so we were left standing outside with no staff in sight. A sign on the door gives an email address (which didn’t respond until 6 HOURS later) and a Norwegian phone number which is not available on WhatsApp (who decides to set up chain accommodation across Norway and thinks it is okay to be uncontactable by anybody outside of Norway?¿?). I tried to contact the number using a hotel phone and nobody answered. We luckily had a staff member wander past us and after 2 hours managed to check in. We booked this through Expedia and the card details had to be updated since it had expired, so even though these had been updated 3 days before our stay, Vander had failed to make any further attempts to accept payment even though Expedia sent an email confirming the accommodation was booked. I later found some emails in my Gmail account from Vander which had gone to my spam. Check your spam if you’re going to book this, and try to check in early because the last staff member leaves at 5pm. Otherwise, the property was lovely. The location isn’t perfect and parking was somewhat difficult/expensive but the property itself was good value.
