• Jennie (10/5): Anbefaler dette stedet til besøkende i Lofoten og Stamsund! - Fantastisk beliggenhet i havna med utsikt utover fjorden frs rommet vårt. Nydelig badstue på kaia og terrasse hvor en kan henge ut i fint vær. Sykler til låns og annet utstyr til leie for vannsport. Hyggelige fellesrom.
• Mario (5/5): A nice hostel for the price of a 4 star hotel - The location and the vibes Lack of value for money To shower you have to pay extra Bath towels to be paid extra I was there in April and got a single room and it was more expensive than higher end accommodation in Oslo and Bodo. Almost as expensive as the 5 star resort I had stayed the night before in Nusfjord (which after taking into account the included breakfast and the free EV charging was actually quite a bit cheaper). Wanted to like this hostel, it has potential, but I cannot make sense of their pricing policy, at that price point you cannot make guests pay for a warm shower, or to get a bath towel (but the bicyles are free!).
• Tremp (7/5): - Endroit sympa Les toilettes un peu loin
• carla (10/5): - Best place we went in Lofoten so far !!!! Everything is perfect the owner is adorable.
• Daniela (10/5): - Tolles hostel, mega Lage. Sehr nette, entspannte Besitzer. Es gibt eine Sauna.
• mingming (9/5): I love this experience. All the people know each other - The owner of the hostel was very friendly. I love this local hostel， have all local People around，If you go summer, they got every activity you wanted，But in the winter, I can feel some cozy Atmosphere，When you sleep in the dorm, you can heard the sound of the Wave under your bed。Great experience，And a very nice price，Highly recommended。 If you travel by public transportation，Pay attention on the Saturday, there's not much bus going on。

• Natacha (10/5): C’est parfait, en famille nous avons adoré. Très bel endroit 😃 -
• JING WEI (10/5): -
• Anette (10/5): Perfekt -
• Anna (9/5): Fantastiskt ställe för att upptäcka Lofoten! - Det var toppen att man kunde låna fiskeutrustning, roddbåt och annat. Det var bra stämning, bra bastu, bra fiske och underbar utsikt! Vi hade gärna haft fler krokar på rummet och gärna några hyllor eller lådor.
• Yue (3/5): Indian roommate is terrible - The hostel is ok but some of the guests are terrible. The eggs I put in the refrigerator of the hostel were stolen by my Indian roommate. When I asked her, she said that she thought they were left in the refrigerator by someone else. She clearly saw me using eggs when cooking the night before. It was really unfortunate to meet such a low-quality person. Moreover, this Indian loved to make phone calls in the room and had no sense of public morality at all.
• Mathilde (10/5): Une super ambiance ! - Très joli lieu avec vue mer. Tous les équipements étaient proposés. Le personnel extrêmement sympathique.
• Patricia (10/5): - Die einfache persönliche Austrahlung der Unterkunft, man dühlte sich wie zuhause. Lage direkt am Wasser. -
• Genko (10/5): - Very nice place to stay on Stamsund. Mathias was kindly and very friendly. Rooms are pretty cold. You need turn on heater to avoid frozen.
• Katrin (8/5): Great Hostel! - Perfekt Hostel. Very nice People there. I stayed there for one night and it was great. I hope i have the chance to come back in Summer. The bathroom was clean but cold.
• Simone (10/5): -
• Irene (7/5): - Next to the sea. Get to mingle with other guests and learn from each others Toilets and bath rooms are not maintained well. Feels uneasy using it.
• Charles (10/5): -
• anne-marie (9/5): je recommande cet hébergement pour sa situation qui doit être idéale l’été. Un peu moins l’hiver, ma - Le côté chalet en bord de mer et la serviabilité de l’hote Les travaux à proximité qui ont compliqué un peu mon arrivée et mon départ, mais c’était surtout dû à mon arrivée de nuit avec le ferry et la présence à les coté d’un ado difficile
• Tomasz (9/5): -
• Guihalon (8/5): Simplicité et convivialité - Une auberge simple en bord de mer, mais chaleureuse et conviviale.
• Bitzer (9/5): -
• Chloé (8/5): -
• Cecilia (8/5): Supertrevligt och mysigt hostel med allt jag behövde. Städat, varmt och till bra pris! - Jag trivdes mycket bra på Stamsund Hostel. Kom fram en regnig kväll till ett uppvärmt och mysigt hostel med trevliga gäster.
• hsiao wei (9/5): 提供很多活動划船釣魚都免費 體驗羅弗敦最好的方式 - 價格跟服務超過我的預期 下次來有一定住很長的時間 沒有不滿意
• john (1/5): I was unable to stay at the hostel and no information was sent to me. I had a TERRIBLE night! - NOTHING. When I finally reached the "Live Lofoten" Hostel having carried heavy luggage late at night around 11pm on Sept 1st, I was unaware I was even at the right place as I was looking for "Stamsund Hostel"! The place was locked up. I knocked as I wanted to ask for directions to Stamsund Hostel. Although Booking.com had confirmed my booking, no details of the hostel or entry code had been sent to me. Name had changed. No information or code was sent to me. The hostel was locked with no opportunity to contact anyone for help. I thought about calling the police, but finally walked all the way back to the Hurtigruten quay and went to the waiting room which was locked. So I slept outside on a picnic table until 3am when it started to rain. I then moved to the concrete floor by the road outside the waiting room as I could get some shelter from the rain. As a 67 year old man, this is not an ideal way to spend a night in the arctic! Luckily, it was not extremely cold that night, but still very unpleasant!
• Rémi (10/5): - Everything was perfect, the house is amazing, lot of space available, kitchen has a lot of stuff. The wifi is great, you just need to go to the right places. We were doing some remote work for a week there with meetings! Lot of things to do (for Free) : we went fishing, paddling, went on a bike ride, hikes nearby are very cool etc. And the most important part, Matias, the host, and the team are very nice and welcoming! We couldn't say good bye so I hope they see this review! Thank you! Nothing.
• Antonia (9/5): -
• judith (7/5): - Welcoming reception open late after walking off hurtigruten.
• Yuling (10/5): I’d stay here again - They offer a lot of free activities, very nice staff! The location is good. The share kitchen is small if you have family room..
• Luís (9/5): -

• Alain (7/5): Lieu de séjour atypique, belle ambiance, mais confort simple. - Auberge de jeunesse conviviales avec activités comme barque, pêche en libre service + d’autres activités payantes. Site typique et pas trop fréquenté pour Lofoten. En couple nous avons logé dans le container. Belle vue. Mais peu pratique pour aller aux toilettes ou douches extérieurs (sortir comme en camping). Les équipements de cuisine pourraient être mieux maintenus.
• Marc (8/5): -
• Alexandre (10/5): -
• Daniel (9/5): Phantastische Lage - Tolle Lage, nettes Publikum. Gelegenheit in Gemeinschaftsküche zu kochen und auf der Terrasse zu essen. Einrichtung recht rustikal, Hostel halt.
• sonia (8/5): Pleasant stay at Stamsund - We loved the chilled mood, the fantastic view from the pier and the kindness of the staff. Modest but enjoyable location. The cabin need some refurbishing.

• rossana (7/5): -
• qin (10/5): - 旅行，除了风景，hostel的人文也是很重要的！斯塔姆松客栈的氛围太棒了！都是懂旅行意义的人来入住的！呆了三晚四天，走时真的依依不舍。如果再去罗弗墩，一定还会去住！ 多人间条件普通，但管理者会用心弥补硬件的短板。非常满意
• Loïc (9/5): Very good, would have been perfect with warm water for the shower - Very comfortable beds and warm for Augustnights. Very nice and helpful staff. Would stay again Showers late at night didn’t have warm water
• mark (8/5): -
• Francesca (6/5): Ostello ok per uno stop di pochi giorni - Posizione, barche gratuite per pescare. Pulizia scadente.
• Sarina (10/5): - I had such a wonderful stay here! The atmosphere of the hostel is cozy and welcoming, and the host is truly one of the kindest and most open-minded people I’ve met on my travels. I instantly felt safe and at home, which made such a difference while exploring the Lofoten Islands. The place has such a positive energy and it’s perfect for meeting inspiring people from all over the world. I can only recommend staying here. it really felt like a little home away from home.
• Azzurra Pellegrino (9/5): - La nostra camera privata nel container era meravigliosa con una vista sul porto molto bella e rilassante. Il container è molto cozy ed è un piacere passarci del tempo. Consiglio di mettere dei comodini e degli scaffali e appendini, in quanto tutte le nostre cose sono state appoggiate per terra in quanto assente appiglio o luogo in cui riporle. Bagni comuni abbastanza puliti e puliti dal personale di frequente. Presente servizio lavanderia a pagamento ma non ne abbiamo usufruito. La cucina era sempre occupata da gruppi di ragazzi che cucinavano in grandi quantità quindi siamo stati un po' sfortunati perché abbiamo dovuto attendere a lungo.
• Mario Folchi (9/5): Nice friendly hostel - Very pure hostel, friendly staff and a lot of free activities available thanks to them
• danila (10/5): - Atmosfera meravigliosa… di altri tempi! Vibes incredibili! Niente!
• Paul (9/5): - Emplacement idéal (avec une voiture) non loin de la ville de Leknes. L'endroit est plein de charme, et participe à la magie du voyage ! Rien à redire sur les équipements et l'accueil chaleureux du personnel !
• Virginia (8/5): - La possibilità di fare attività gratuite come sup, bici e canoe Host molto gentile, spazi in comune ben tenuti La stanza per due persone è molto piccola ma comunque accogliente
• KARINE (5/5): - Le personnel était accueillant La chambre était petite, la salle de bain pas très propre. Les espaces communs sont un peu vieillots
• Abigail (10/5): Amazing spot, well equipped hostel, friendly staff. Best hostel I have stayed in! -
• Mahefa (8/5): -
• mauro (7/5): - Stanze semplici, pulite in stile vintage. Cucina bene attrezzata. I grandi gruppi monopolizzano gli ambienti.
• Roman (10/5): - Wunderschöne Lage, sehr gemütlich, die Ruderboote und SUPs, die man kostenlos nutzen kann, die freundlichen Gastgeber
• Pierre (10/5): - Cadre impeccable: terrasse en bois sur pilotis super agréable pour boire un verre/manger/lire/se reposer et de laquelle il est possible de sauter à l'eau tant à marée haute qu'à marée basse. Ponton également disponible pour embarquer dans les barques et Sup disponibles. Etendue d'eau se prête bien au paddle et à la nage en eau libre (belle distance de 400m assez protégée de la mer). Chalet cosy, infrastructures pratiques, et bon café filtre proposé au matin! Rien, tout etait magique.
• Fleuriane (8/5): -
• Michal (9/5): -
• Marie (8/5): - Bâtiments avec beaucoup de cachet, cuisine très bien équipée, beaucoup de choses proposées par l’auberge (emprunter un vélo, une barque, sauna,…) Les dortoirs sont vraiment petits il est difficile d’y mettre ses affaires
• Lotte (10/5): -
• hsinyi (9/5): 接待人員都很隨和親切，借用小船時，還附贈划船教學🤣，並請我們新手一定要穿上救生衣，很令人喜歡的青旅。 - 業主有sup、小船及腳踏車可以免費使用 對東方人來說，上鋪的床真的超高的，爬上去睡覺很可怕。
• Rodríguez (9/5): -
• Ileana (10/5): - personale super gentile, diverse attività gratuite a disposizione (sup, barca a remi, bici), lenzuola incluse nelle cabine
• Ingmar (10/5): - Joakim, the host, was incredibly welcoming and kind. And the location is just breathtaking.
• Evin (10/5): -
• Marleen (7/5): Leuke ervaring op een prachtige plek. - Locatie! Gratis gebruik van sups en roeibootjes. Was erg warm in de container.
• Antonina (6/5): Rustic, but nice cottages in the nature. - Nice cottages in the nature near the water. Bit rustic.
• skyseb (8/5): Chalet pratique dans une auberge bien située pour explorer les îles Lofoten - Petit chalet assez pratique pour une famille de 3 personnes. Table assez grande pour manger à l'intérieur en cas de mauvais temps. Cuisine relativement bien équipée pour ce type de logement (pas besoin d'aller à la cuisine partagée si on a juste besoin de cuisiner avec poêle et casserole). Très appréciable d'avoir des toilettes et un lavabo directement dans le logement. Les lits n'étaient pas très confortables (on pouvait sentir les lattes en bois à travers le matelas quand on est allongé dessus). Les douches partagées n'étaient pas très agréables à utiliser, et il y avait de l'attente.

• Elina (10/5): -
• Yoann (9/5): - L’emplacement en bord de mer sur le port et le calme RAS
• Meysam (10/5): Lovely & dreamy hostel - The atmosphere, staff, place, small grocery just close it, a lot of staff free for guests Unfortunately ovens are not good, they worked but not easy , WiFi is not cover the rooms , anyway i didn’t have problems
• Carita Grindvik (10/5): Nydelig plass drevet av fine folk. - Beliggenhet, rolig og litt utenfor verste turiststrømmen. Utlån av utstyr gratis! Veldig hyggelige folk som jobber der. Kunne vært noe bedre utstyrte kjøkken og badene trenger kanskje en oppussing etter hvert.
• Anita (4/5): Emplacement agréable, mais hébergement décevant - L’emplacement et la chambre Les sanitaires sales et la douche minutée !La cuisine sale et cuisinière à l’étage défectueuse. Le tout mériterait d’être rénové.
• Hanna (4/5): Hostel med potential, smutsigt, kommer inte bo där igen. - Fint läge, vacker natur, trevlig brygga med gemensamt utrymme på själva bryggan. Nära till en liten matbutik. Fri tillgång till lån av eka, SUP. Dåligt städade gemensamma kök och badrum. Krångligt att duscha eftersom du måste gå och be om mynt till duschen. Du kan välja mellan att duscha 4min eller 8min… känns obekvämt att behöva be om att få duscha. Ofräscha smutsiga kök, smutsiga köksredskap som behövde diskas INNAN användning, smutsiga diskredskap vilket gjorde att disken inte kändes ren efteråt heller. Loj och ointresserad personal som saknade känsla för service.
