No reception. You check yourself in. They email you a code for the door and the key to your room is inside the room. A couple bathrooms assigned to specific rooms, kitchen contains. Was clean as you aren’t supposed to wear your shoes inside.

Location is five mins drive from Leknes Airport . It is an upscale hostel meaning there are no bunks in a room but individual single and double rooms , tastefully furnished with very soft and comfortable bed and comforters and pillows . Separate WC and Shower with WC on upstairs and downstairs .for three rooms each so no crowding . Dining options close by . The Circle K gas stations was sufficient fo Coffee Ice Creams and Pizzas and Burgers and Sandwiches . So one can survive by just eating there whole day very economically without wasting money on dine in restaurants. No front desk but entrance code given by text prior to arrival . .

Séjour à Leknes moyen

Notre séjour à Leknes n'a pas été exceptionnel, la ville n'est pas touristique et il n'y a rien d'intéressant à y faire, surtout en automne. Le logement était correct mais sans aucun contact avec les propriétaires. L'insonorisation n'est pas terrible. Heureusement, tout était propre et relativement confortable.

Inge

Luktet tørrfisk på rommet mitt. Mulig at gjesten før meg har spist det der, for det luktet ikke slik i andre rom som kjøkken, bad og gang. Støyende bass til langt på kveld, og som begynte igjen ved 0500-tiden. Vet ikke hvor det kom fra, men holdt meg våken.
