Amazing views on the mountains, sea, high bridges of Fredvang. It’s a great location to explore Lofoten! I stayed 3 nights at the 1 bedroom appartement right at the sea with a big terrace & the prices for Lofoten are quite budget friendly! I traveled many times to Lofoten & I would def recommend this place. The apartment looked way nicer than what I expected. Inside freshly painted & very beach-shack-Lofoten vibes style decorated. Shower clean and hot, bed comfy, I cooked up some nice simple meals in the kitchen after outdoor adventures, I did appreciate the very comfy couch in the appartement from where I enjoyed the beautiful scenery outside. It was a great stay! I have meet the manager, Sylwia & she made sure that everything was in order, very friendly! Tusen takk!

I loved my stay but the walls are very thin. It’s a very cool, quaint old wooden building so…For me wearing earplugs (I always do during the night) did the job!

The space in our family room, friendly staff, overlooked the water, close by to some good hikes. Meeting other travellers. For a hostel it had enough facilities i.e 2 kitchens to be able to cook meals, access a table etc.

Water in showers was cold late evening, however was hot at earlier times. There is a restaurant advertised but it was really just a pizza oven facility, didn't see it open, and the sauna needed to be booked so harder to access.Price seemed high compared to some other places we had stayed but maybe that's the area. Weather was dismal so didn't access outdoor tables on balcony

Excellent location, with great views across the sound (there was always something to watch, such as an otter dining on fish after midnight). The apartment was comfortable and well equipped (no TV but that was fine with us). We were sorry we did not check out the local restaurant.

Seems like the previous guests had something fishy in the room (and in the fridge in particular). Leaving the windows open over the first day took care of it. It is advisable to pay attention to the extra step between the rooms.

great hostel, super clean, perfect location for amazing hikes close to hostel - Kvalvika, Ryten, Mulstotinden, Fredvang beach, also super close by bike or car/bus to Ramberg, Flakstad. Bus stop is approx 15min nice walk. Nice terrace, very well equipped two kitchens. Highly recommended and I will come back.

mould on ceiling in bathroom and door handles could be fixed in rooms so it is not that loud and does not bother others when opening closing doors.but this is just very small thing. The hostel is super nice and nicely clean!

Cosy hostel in the prettiest part of Lofoten. Loved how accessible some top-tier hikes were from the hostel. Rooms are spacious and bathrooms were clean. Easy to meet people.

Need to walk 3km to get to the nearest bus stop and there are no food options or grocery shops in the neighbourhood so you need to come prepared if you are travelling without a car. Walk from the bus stop is super beautiful though, hitch hiking is possible and there are plenty of hike options if you’re willing to walk the extra 2-5km to the trailheads.

There was some trouble with the WiFi because of a storm before we came, but together with the host we managed to get it working again. The location is stunning and as we had a cabin on the top floor we had great views from the window and the terrace in front of the cabin. It is a great base for exploring the Lofoten islands.

When it get windy (which it got) there can be a bit of a draft, especially through the front door. Of course these are simple cabins with 'character'. We weren't much bothered about it as we prefer fresh air, but this can also push the window closed as there is nothing to keep it set to a fixed place when you open it. Fortunately the temperatures were at a convenient level but we wondered how it would be during other seasons.

This place is incredible! If you want hike spectacular trails, get toasty in a sauna, cold plunge in the ocean, watch the sunset from a hot tub and witness the magical northern lights - then this is the place to do it. It's a little off the beaten path but I still met so many amazing people here. Sylwia, the hostel manager was amazing and very helpful in giving info about the surrounding area. The dorms are spacious, beds are comfortable although on the soft side (that seems standard for Norway), shower and toilets were clean, wifi was fast and reliable. Having two kitchens was great and they had everything to cook a great meal - even a leftovers food basket that always seemed to have lots of pasta. The view from the main kitchen is stunning. I loved my time here to much I extended twice!

The hostel is great, but like I said, it's a little off the beaten path so you need to be prepared. Public transport isn't great in Loften, busses run but very infrequently. The closest shop is 6kms away. If you have a car it'll be easy, but if you're relying on public transport be prepared to wait, walk or hitchhike.

The Lofoten is a very beautiful place and our Cabin was located along a bay. The owner is very nice and warned us in time to view the aurora. Cabin is comfortable and clean; towels and bedlinnen were also clean. We had full control over the heating system which makes one's comfort so much easier especially during harsh weather in the Lofoten. Getting the key was super easy.

Kitchen utensils were a bit outdated; positive was a good oven system. No further negative things

Location was very nice and rooms cozy. A lot of activities for tourists. THE STAFF WAS AMAZING.

There was a really really rude french tourist guide. He doesnt work for the hostel, but for other local tourist firm apparently. He was staying at the hostel and acted like he owned the place. He closed the kitchen before hand, and made it sure that no one used it during 22.00-8.00. But opened it for his own use way before 8:00. Making a lot of noise in there with his group of tourists. Apparently it’s not the first time, and he was really rude when we pointed his behaviour. So if you meet him, just know HE DOES NOT OWN THE PLACE. 👎🏻

I can’t recommend this place enough. I’ve stayed here twice: solo in 2023 (shared room) and with a family of 4 in 2024 (private room) and both stays have been wonderful. Clean linens, comfortable beds, hot showers, and two well equipped kitchens for cooking/eating. The location is outstanding and only a 5 min drive to the must see Kvalvika beach/Ryten hikes. But it’s also central enough that it can be used as a multi day base camp for exploring other parts of Lofoten. You will have to make your own bed (and may need earplugs if you stay in a shared room), but the value you get for the price is unbeatable especially considering how shockingly expensive accommodation can get in Lofoten. The manager, Sylwia, is full of charm and makes her guests feel incredibly welcome. She wasn’t working when I arrived most recently but when she found out I was a repeat visitor, she went out of her way to stop by the property to shake my hand and say hello. It’s clear she takes great pride in her work/hospitality and it’s a pleasure to support her business. I look forward to staying here in future visits to Lofoten! P.S. the sauna is not to be missed. Perfect for after a long day of hiking and is right next to the sea so you can cold plunge after :)
