I thought the hostel would be in better condition. It is outdated and needs refurbishing. Only bathroom provision was a pump handwash on basin. Definitely not recommending for the price paid.

2 netters opphold på Skap Hostel Mandal.

Et rimelig og bra overnattings tilbud. Har bodd her flere ganger før og er fortsatt fornøyd bortsett fra at det denne gang var en del støv under sengene. Dette kunne lett vært fjernet ved støvsuging el. vask.

Rent og pent, hyggelig betjening i resepsjonen. Ganske enkle forhold, det er en folkehøyskole. Gode senger. Gratis parkering. Valuta for pengene. Ingen frokost, men kort vei til gågaten med bakeri og restauranter.
