Ocean-view Haven: Take a swim from your window!

Good communication with the staff. Location right above the water

Generally speaking, it’s very sad, that a house with such a potential is treated so badly. When you get into the apartment you get a feeling that the owners just let it be knowing that one way or another the house will pay for itself. In the description it is written that the place is for explorers who spend a lot of time outdoors, as opposite to the people who like to stay indoors I suppose, but explorers might also need proper facilities to relax, when they are back. And this is something you don’t get in the apartment. 1. There is small kitchenette for cooking, but no place to eat or even have a coffee. Considering that it is suggested that up to 6 people stay there, they would need to sit mainly on their beds. 2. No wardrobes or places to put your clothes in. There are some hooks, but only in one of the bedrooms and nothing at the entrance for jackets. In a town like Bergen, where it rains a lot, this could be a challenge. 3. Very few sockets, some of them just hanging on a thread. 4. One of the bedrooms has a huge fridge, not so good for sleeping and the fridge can’t be used by the other occupants of the flat freely. 5. In one room the curtain rod just fell out when I tried to open the curtain. 6. In another room the pull down blind doesn’t reach all the way to the window sill and doesn’t hold at its lower part, so it’ just hooked to a window handle with a bed sheet thrown on top to cover the window. This whole construction makes the window unusable, as only part of the window can be opened without disassembling it. 7. The shower cabin is leaking, if 6 “explorers” take a shower, the floor might get flooded and there are not enought hooks for towels. 8. There is only one towel per person.

Location in a very nice neighbourghood and by the water.

Very poor maintenance. All hooks for the clothes and curtains half broken. The sunlight woke us up early in the morning due to the absense of curtains in one room (it was broken and nobody fixed it even though we told them by the app (message).

Great location, facilities. Very clean.

The blind in the room should go all the way down to fully block light from the outside.

It’s good to have Netflix on the TV, free parking they offered.

We don’t have toilet paper for two days, but the host gave us at the final stay. The shower hot water was refilled too slowly. We have five people, only half of one person can enjoy hot shower.
