Independent - accommodation in Bergen

Great place to stay in Bergen and get around to all the things.

This was a really nice hotel we could walk to from the airport in 5 minutes ( and I don’t walk fast).

I took a taxi from the airport, which I thought was a sanctioned taxi service.. I asked before I got in if they accept credit cards which 95% of the companies in Bergen do but when the driver got to the hotel, I gave him my credit card and it was declined.. I gave him another credit card and it was declined.. I gave him a third credit card and it was declined so he asked for cash… I looked up to see what the charges should be based on Uber and it was $50. He told me the charges were $90 and he needed cash.. I said let’s go into the hotel and see what we can figure out… this man took my pack with credit cards, passport and cash.. when I refuse to pay him this way.. it turned into a brawl because I grabbed my backpack from this man as he’s trying to exit the Hotel and I had to get them to call the police..Sage witnessed this at the front desk and spoke to the police . The police offered to file a report against this man who is an immigrant from Eritrea/Ethiopia… I did not want to press charges because it was just a waste of time, but please do not take an unofficial sanction Taxi service, which is Bergen Taxi… they also have Uber… do not get it in any taxi at this airport unless you know where they come from!!
