Our room was small but clean. We booked room for 4 people but was 3. Was ok for us. The bathrooms are enough and clean. The breakfast was rich for hostel. Everyday was the same but you can eat good. The kitchen and hall was common but the hostel is calm. In the window every morning we saw animals.

Great place to stay! Private room was lovely and the facilities were very good. Only slight downside is the walk into town but if you are doing tours they pick you up from the hostel so it’s not that bad. Would highly recommend staying here!

If coming to Svalbard this is by far the only budget accomodation available. Bearing in mind that it has no real competition, it is still nevertheless a very good hostel. Breakfast pancakes are great, staff are friendly, it is fairly sociable. The rooms are somewhat small, but the kitchen/social area is spacious enough, and in any case if you come to Svalbard for the bedroom then there's really little point.

One of the best hostels I've stayed in. Staff were so friendly and let me stay in the breakfast room till my taxi arrived. I highly recommend this hostel and will definitely be booking them if I get the chance to visit again. :) Free tea and coffee all day were a plus too!
