The old bakery in Sandviken

The host, Paolo, was excellent. We connected via Whatsapp and he was very responsive and helpful throughout the stay. The location was great, 10 min walking distance from the historic city center.

Aménagement charmant, très bien équipé et calme. Excellent emplacement, à la fois à l’écart des zones très touristiques mais à distance de marche de tous les lieux à découvrir, dans in quartier agréable et vivant. Accès facile, propriétaire très facile à contacter et très sympathique.

Stille og tilbaketrukket, men allikevel veldig sentralt. Det var rent og ryddig. Historiske detaljer gjorde det til et nydelig sted å bo.

The location is excellent! You can easily walk to the centre of Bergen and you are very close to the bus stop and supermarket. The kitchen was well equipped and spacious. The open plan kitchen/living space is very large and comfortable with a comfortable sofa. The owner provides access to netflix for guests, which is very generous and handy, and we appreciated this.

The bed is extremely uncomfortable, and we both slept badly every single night of our stay, sadly. The pillows are poor, on both the bed and sofa, and could do with upgrading. The bathroom has limited lighting and can be very dark. The switch for the bathroom is far away, but we understand that the layout is restricted because it used to be an old bakery. Prior to our arrival, the owner contacted us to provide information and informed us about a recent burglary in his flat. We felt, especially at night, being on the ground floor and the fact that the main gate into the property is never locked, quite unsafe and uneasy. We were also informed that we were not allowed to use the fireplace because a previous guest had broken it. One of the main reasons we booked this property is for the cosy fireplace, so we were disappointed to hear this, and we were only informed the day before our arrival.
