- "We were really impressed with the Anker Hostel, it served us for what we needed. We’d booked our flights and then saw the price of hotels!! Anker hostel came up on our search but never having stayed in a hostel, I wasn’t sure but it was a really good price and met our needs. We had a basic twin room which had a bathroom and a small kitchenette. No frills but comfortable beds, clean towels and sheets, quiet and clean. Some of the public areas, corridors, etc, were a bit worn but didn’t affect our stay, this is just wear and tear. Check in seemed a bit long winded but the staff were lovely and friendly. I would stay here again x"

- "You get what you pay for - to an extent, with this one. Cheap room in a superb location. Relatively clean but facilities are befitting the price - poor decor, cracked and loose bathroom floor tiles, a travesty of a zip tied shower, poor room ventilation and a general condition of something you'd expect for the lowest local price. Set your expectations low, then go lower. If you need a place to crash - perfect. If you need functional facilities and a pleasant environment go elsewhere."

- "Very well maintained hostel, though there is slight distance walking upslope but not really an issue." - "Great hostel for what it’s worth. Breakfast was included by default, which included a series of breads, meats, and some vegetables and drinks. There is no AC so it can get a bit warm in the summer, and the community bathroom got dirty easily due to a leak in the sink. Otherwise, it was great. Linens and towels were included by default and check in even at 1am was good; the receptionist on the phone instructed me where to go. It’s about a 10 walk down the hill to a tram or bus station, the latter of which has direct lines to/from airport (nearly 1 hour)."

Wish I could give 6 stars but I have to give 5" - "The hostel is a bit far from the city, but on a hill so one gets good views of the city from the hostel. The hostel was quite lively, and we loved the common play area with the foosball table and various board games. The breakfast spread was amazing and the best we had in our entire Norway trip. The staff was super friendly and helpful. It is great that they provide free parking card. The washrooms were clean and did not feel like common washrooms at all. The common kitchen was super busy but we were able to manage cooking our meals. This was the first time we stayed in a hostel, and I would surely recommend this to anyone who wants to have a great hostel experience. "

The only consideration is that they will not let you use the shared spaces after checkout which is not always great and the receptionists are not very friendly "
