Stylish apartment in the center of Svolvær

A whole flat rather than a room, on one level with its own door and a free parking space, ten minutes' walk above the centre of Svolvær, with a garden terrace and a kitchen you can cook a full meal in.

A couple, or a couple with one child on the sofa bed. Everything is on the ground floor with a private entrance, which helps anyone who would rather avoid stairs, and the games and children's books suit a family stopping for a few days.

The name says the centre of Svolvær; the listing's own figure is 700 metres to Svolvær Torg, uphill on Løkthaugveien. Booking.com publishes a maximum of five guests, against a double bed and a sofa bed. A cot costs NOK 200 per child per night and has to be asked for, no extra bed can be added, and children of eleven and over are charged at the adult rate. Hen and stag groups are not taken.

One unit of 45 m², listed as a One-Bedroom Apartment: a bedroom with a double bed and a living room with a sofa bed, one private bathroom with a bath or shower, and an additional toilet. Linen, towels, free toiletries and a hairdryer are provided. The whole apartment is on the ground floor of a building and has its own entrance. Booking.com counts two beds in the unit.

Booking.com records the whole apartment as being on the ground floor with its own entrance. No wheelchair or step-free facilities are listed, so check the approach if that matters.

Free WiFi, free private parking, heating, tiled and wooden floors, a flat-screen TV carrying streaming services, a wardrobe and a socket by the bed. The kitchen has an oven, a hob, a dishwasher, a microwave, a toaster, a kettle, kitchenware and cleaning products. Outside there is a patio and a terrace with a garden view. Board games and children's books, DVDs and music are listed.

Self-catering, with a dining table indoors and a terrace to eat on outside. No breakfast is served and there is no restaurant or bar on site; the town's places to eat are the 700 metres to Svolvær Torg that the listing quotes.

Løkthaugveien 9 in Svolvær, which Kartverket registers as a town in Vågan municipality.
