Staff were very helpful when I notified them about my late arrival and check-in, and responded promptly through email. They also made sure I had a towel and some soap waiting on my bed when I asked if there would be any available for use at the hostel.

I was staying in Rumi Hostel as I was traveling Norway from south to north. I can confidently say that this is my favourite hostel. It was an ideal spot to wash ones clothes and take care of oneself after weeks of traveling. It was very clean as well as quiet. Recharging ones batteries went well there. I'd come again if I visit Trondheim

I was surprised that I had to make the bed. I don’t think I have had to do that at any hostel before. Staff were extremely knowledgeable, kind and helpful, made my trip much better. The schoolkids were really noisy but I guess that’s to be expected.

Hostel with a view
Rumi as the hostel is called nowadays is on a hill top with magnificent view over the Trondheim fjord. Stunning sunset yesterday ar midnight! The staff is very helpfull. I stayed in a room with 4 bunk beds, luckily the lower one that I asked for. Bath and toilet shared with others. Clean and comfortable. The staff mentioned before my arrival that it would be a 25 minutes walk from the station. Upphill. It was steep. The common room wirh fjord view and free tea/coffee is pleasant. Recommended!

The room was very dirty. It hadn't been washed for weeks. Leftover crumbles on the floor, food stains on the wall, dust in corners and surfaces and overall a very dirty room. When I told the staff I reckoned they would clean immediately, but that didn't happen. Very disappointed.
