I stayed in small double room, which was really small. I noticed all rooms are small for this chain hotel. 20min walk from train station, which I find quite far. Not 24 hr reception.

Stayed in a single, room was small but was sufficient for me. The room was dark even though I turned on all the lights. I did want to open blinds, don't want anyone to see inside, blinds were dusty. I did a thorough wipe of the room, wasn't fully cleaned. I didn't pay for breakfast. Saw leftover breakfast left on the table for a long time, no one cleared them.

Great "micro hotel" not far from Sola Airport
Needed a room for myself near Sola Airport Stavanger, and this was perfect. Great rate, tiny room with tiny bathroom- which is how I live at home. Nice, clean and modern. Friendly staff, easy check-in and -out. Breakfast optional (great selection) and free coffee in the am. Huge breakfast room. Ice available in reception. Right next to Kvadrat shopping center. Would definitely stay again
