Amazingly comfy bed! The heated bathroom floor was a luxurious touch. Great location for exploring Oslo on foot or by public transport.
Excellent location, great breakfast, and friendly staff! Everything you need for a comfortable stay in Oslo.
Great location and tasty breakfast, but the room could have been cleaner and the food was not great.
Good value for money. The breakfast was amazing! Rooms are a bit dated but clean and comfortable.
Great location, super breakfast, and friendly staff! The tram stop right outside was incredibly convenient for exploring Oslo. Would definitely stay again!
