I booked this hostel as budget accommodation was scarce in mid-May in Bergen. After a night at the Bergen YMCA, I can safely say this place is average. It was not the cleanest hostel I've stayed in, but it certainly wasn't the dirtiest. The staff was helpful when I asked questions, but I did not get a tour of the... More

The Bergen YMCA Hostel location is perfect - right next to the Torget fish market, and only a few hundred meters from Bryggen, the old harbor in Bergen. I traveled with 2 friends and spent 2 nights at the hostel in a 6-bed dorm. Unfortunately one of our beds was double-booked. We checked in late in the afternoon, and then... More

A friend recommended this place to me so I gave it a shot. It was clean and in an ideal location within walking distance of the train station and historic harbour and all the local hotspots. I was scheduled to arrive in Bergen at night and since they don't have a night staff, they emailed me detailed instructions on how... More

The hostel is very basic, with a excelente location, there is a very small market beside where you can buy some foods or cleaning products. We bought some them to clean our room, because it was very piggish. It was very complicate to shower, because the bathroom didn't have division, so the shower's water gone to all place. There is...

This was a pretty basic hostel, but the location is super convenient and right next to the fish market. It was easy to get to by from the airport and train station is a short walk away. When you wake up you're right next to the fish market and shopping areas so there's a lot to do in a short... More

The location of this hostel is really good - You are just in the middle of all touristic places and with very good access to public transportation, shopping facilities, the fish market, etc. However, the YMCA has a very bad connection to the Internet - there is no connection in the bedrooms and neither in the communal areas, signal is...

We stayed here for two nights and it was quite okay. We booked a private room and the room itself was nice, very fresh bathroom etc. My biggest concern was that the room wasn't cleaned very good and that the pillow and duvet was smelly (from someone smoking indoors at some point I guess) The legs of the bed was...

ThIs place is clean and bright. We did a fast check-in the first night and wanted to change rooms for a cheaper the next night. The reason people come to different places is to see what the area has to offer for viewing. Most of these tours leave early in the morning and the tour ends a little late. The... More

Pros: cheap stay, safe hostel, clean private bathroom, free wifi, centrally located (10 minute walk from train station), small mini mart next door.
