I loved that it was quiet and clean and had a kitchenette with everything you needed to make small meals or have breakfast and lunch at home with groceries which are within walking distance about two blocks. The entry system is a little confusing and it would be nice if there were more directions on using convection stove tops and ovens for those of us who've never done that. It would be nice if they had some grocery stores and other local businesses that were close so that when you got in you could easily find them. I felt really at home in my room and everything was very comfortable. The staff we did encounter we're very friendly and kind.

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.

Cuisine bien équipée. Propre dans l'ensemble. La vaisselle était sale lorsqu'on est arrivée (surtout les verres et ustensiles). Odeur nauséabonde dans le corridor (étage 2), comme une odeur d'égout ou d'étable). Chambre très minimaliste, nous aurions aimé des tables de nuit pour mettre nos trucs. Oreillers beaucoup trop minces, nous en aurions eu besoin de 2 supplémentaires. Le frigo nécessite un dégivrage. Sinon, le check-in très facile, il faut lire les instructions dans les courriels et c'est tout. Très calme.

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

La camera è molto pulita e arredata bene in stile moderno. I letti, compreso il divano- letto, sono comodi. Forse i cuscini non sono il massimo. Il prezzo della struttura è in linea con i prezzi norvegesi. C'è una piccola e comoda cucina che aiuta quando c'e' la necessità di farsi una buona pasta italiana(anche per evitare i pessimi ristoranti con i loro prezzi altissimi). La pasta italiana, a proposito, si può comprare sono al supermarket sotto il centro commerciale del centro . Evitare le altre marche. La struttura si trova vicino al centro ma non è c'e' il rumore del traffico o dei locali . La palestra è ben fornita. La tv ha solo canali norvegesi. La wifii è veloce. Le comunicazioni con la struttura sono affisse abbastanza intuibili. Quando si esce ci chiedono di portare fuori la spazzatura (mediante chiavetta elettronica) e pulire la cucina : giusto cosi in un paese civile come la Norvegia (cit. Zalone)

The rooms were very nice but there was no shelving for toiletries in the bathroom. There was no explanation on how to use the stove which ended up being a constant frustration but with good humor we worked through it. I do want to address the staff. We were outside and a woman was trying to put her trash in the outside cans. A staff member was taking a break, she looked over and instead of getting up off the ground to assist the lady, she barked out why she could not get her trash in the can. It was quite abrupt which could be her personality but in customer care is this what you want to represent your business? Overall, the things I mentioned are small in the longrun. They were little annoyances but it didn't take away from the overall stay. The location is convenient and well situated for a stay in a beautiful city with much to experience and see.

Takk for et fint opphold

Kjempefint og sentralt. Noe hard sofa og seng, ellers god komfort. Nyoppusset og fint. Luktet rart (søppel?) i 1. etg, usikker på hva det kommer av. Men generelt et veldig fint opphold og kan anbefales. Noe dyrt ift. vanlig hotell hvor man også får hotellfrokost, men hvis man skal lage alle måltid «hjemme», kan det lønne seg med leilighetshotell.

Rigtig god placering, alt var helt nyt og i rigtig god stand. Og fint udstyret køkken. Virkelig et godt sted. Eneste minus er, at der kun bliver gjort rent på værelset én gang om ugen (og kun ved ophold længere end 10 dage), så jeg kunne godt have savnet muligheden for selv at feje eller støvsuge. Håndklæder vaskede vi selv, der var fine vaskefaciliteter i kælderen. Der udover besøgte vi Bergen i en usædvanlig varm uge (25-28 grader) og havde det derfor meget varmt på værelset, da der ikke rigtig var aircondition (jeg tænker ikke det er nødvendigt 99% af tiden).
