One of very few hotels where you can book for a family of FIVE, without having to get a big suite.
Two connecting rooms with bunk beds for 3 in one room, and a double bed in the other. You'll find hotels with more luxury than this one, but the reasonable price and the room structure makes this our number one choice in the area. Receptionless, but plenty of information and no problem with communication.

Manageable for backpackers only
For 1100 kr, it was an extremely small and conjusted room. Bed was foldable and had springs which could be felt while sleeping. Claustrophobic for me.
The room still has trash from the previous stay. Pizza and burger take away boxes under the stairs up to the bunk bed.
Could also invest in some better pillows and blankets.
As in description small but efficient room for three. Crowded with small space for luggage. Right in center of town. Breakfast can be preordered, but I’ll say it is better to buy some ready to eat in the food store Kiwi next to the church. No reception, but system with code for access works fine.

Clean and basic. Shell of a wardrobe had on 2 hangers. Had a power cut for about 30 minutes. Upgraded to a double bed which was great but only had one pillow and a single quilt. No tv or kettle.

90 cm from bed to ceiling.
The photo on the ad on hotels.com does not represent the room. the photo was of a king size bed, but the actual room was a bunk-bed in a capsule. Needless to say i didnt read the ad well enough, but the misrepresenting photo made up for the confusion. Would not recommend to stay here in a capsule.
The room was so small that it couldn’t fit us and our suitcase. We had to change hotels. We lost money. DO NOT STAY HERE UNLESS YOU ONLY WEIGH 100 pounds and have a handbag. There wasn’t even space for a folding chair. What a disaster that almost ruined our trip.
Man får hva man betaler for. Dette er et rimelig hotell, men plassert meget sentralt i Arendal sentrum. Praktisk med digital nøkkel og helt ok rom midt i høysesongen. Dette oppleves som «et sted å sove», verken mer eller mindre. Smart tv som fungerte utmerket.

Midt i sentrum av Arendal. Kort vei til alt.
Hadde et greit opphold, rengjøring hver 3 dag. Noe kluss med telefonnummer, men bortsett fra det så er jeg fornøyd.
Ikke så mye å si. Senga var litt for hard, god luft inni bunkeren😁

Akkurat det jeg hadde behov for- en seng for en natt, samt toalett og dusj. Mindre hotellrom har jeg ikke bodd på, men det var heller ikke behov for noe større, så helt ypperlig for meg. Selvbetjent automat-kiosk med det mest essensielle tilgjengelig.

Veldig rent og pent rom, enkel innsjekk og utsjekk. Supert om man bare trenger en seng og sove i.
