There’s stains (looks like blood stains) on the curtains. The water takes a long time to heat up. The worst experience is having the cleaner repeatedly opening our door without knocking way before check out time.

Fast hotel is a concept I hadn’t seen before - an unstaffed hotel. It just worked, though felt a bit empty.
This hotel is exactly in front of the war museum. Rooms were very clean and tidy, no one at reception but easy Checkin
Comfortable beds
No restaurant / breakfast but there are many hotels nearby for food
Excellent location, near Hurtigruten Terminal. The room is big.

Two lights out in the room and could not contact anyone. Room basic and nice. Just a block from docks making it very convenient. Only free parking is a few spaces on street right in front of the hotel.
The room was clean and fine to stay in, however when we arrived the toilet was broken wouldn’t flush. Also the temperature in bathroom was like a sauna. I emailed Fast Hotels to report our problem but we never got a response. Finally in the morning I spoke to a person cleaning rooms and they messaged maintenance but it was too by then as we were leaving. This was very disappointing to be ignored by the hotel
Property was in a rundown area. Worst of all, it was completely unmanned. There was no staff on the premises. You let yourself in with a code that was texted to you--no lobby staff, no one to answer questions--completely hands off. I was unaware of this at the time of booking, and will never stay there again.
Right by bus pickup. Easy in and out access with key code.

Complete absence of hospitality
Is this the future of so called 'hospitality'?
This hotel has no human presence whatsoever: no check in / reception staff; nobody to speak to with a problem.They send a text with access code and room number on the afternoon of arrival.If you don't get the text you will be sleeping on the street.
What happens if there is an IT failure? Everybody out on the street?
What happens in an emergency ? The hotel will have nobody to help. You will be on your own, and relying on the local volunteer services.

Looks like a newly built property. so its clean. convenient park in and check in facility. there is no staff its a self check-in hotel.
Lift is small but available.
the heater was not effective. They can do better on that.
There are few restaurants nearby, for good breakfast options.
