Auberges de jeunesse de Nordland, Norvège

Perfect for solo traveller, a little further away from narvik city center but still very walkable (10+ mins). They’ve got a restaurant (fried food), a church nearby. Bathroom is a little run down but still v decent

The hostel offers some conveniences but overall, I would rate it 3/5. Its location is a major advantage, with a shopping center and supermarket just a 5-minute walk away, making it easy to access essentials. However, the experience was marred by several issues. The hostel was difficult to find due to the lack of clear signage, which was frustrating upon arrival. Additionally, the noise insulation was very poor—I could hear footsteps and movement from upstairs throughout the night, which severely impacted my sleep and caused insomnia. While the hostel has potential, these issues need to be addressed to improve the overall experience. It’s a suitable choice for budget travelers prioritizing convenience, but light sleepers may want to consider other options.

Furu hostel was located right smack in the middle of Lofoten - and I dont think you can get there with public transport. We drove, and stayed for a night. It was alright, nothing spectacular but the hosts were very friendly.

Excellent and laid back place, with fabulous host.really enjoyed the SUPS, bikes and just relaxing in the common area. The views are awesome too. Would have loved to stay longer, and hope to come back!!!
